Toro 51480 Questions and Answers


#1 Is the auto feed any good. Had a weed eater and the auto feed never worked right.

The automatic feed doesn't work because it really doesn't have one. Instead, each time you your release the trigger switch and wait about 2 seconds you will hear a click and the two lines will each feed out about 1/4". It takes some getting used to but it works..

#2 How much does it weigh?

It weighs about 6 pound. It's well balanced and easy to use. I've used it quite a bit, including yesterday for about 30 minutes. It's a nice piece of equipment, solidly built and does a good job. I have hesitancy in recommending it.
