Ranking of the best grass trimmers 2022 - gas and electric

Well-groomed and landscaped territory of a country house or cottage requires constant attention. It is necessary to regularly monitor the beauty of the site, fight against insidious weeds, and maintain the accuracy of the lawn. A great help in this matter is provided by such an indispensable tool as a trimmer, with which garden care becomes much easier.

In order to choose and buy a trimmer, you need to know what types it is, what type of site it is suitable for, what parameters it has, and also how to repair this device yourself in case of malfunctions.

What is a trimmer and how does it happen

To begin with, it is worth clarifying that this useful invention has a number of differences from a conventional lawn mower, and in comparison with the latter, the trimmer seriously wins.

Designed for cutting grass on smooth, level areas, a lawn mower is a rather capricious device, noisy, heavy and short-lived. Its blades don't handle rocks or thick branches well, and can break easily when hitting them.

The trimmer is a more convenient hand tool due to its compactness, wide functionality and scope of use. Despite its lightness, this device is able not only to mow grass even on a rocky or uneven surface, but also to cope with branches 3 cm thick. In addition, the tool parameters provide settings with which you can adjust the height of the mowed vegetation. All this makes the device indispensable in the care of the landscape of a country house or cottage.

Types of trimmers

There are three main types:

1. Professional trimmers. Usually used for long-term work in the city - in parks, on the streets and in courtyards. They are distinguished by the presence of a heavy-duty engine, due to which thick branches and shoots are cut.
2. Universal trimmers.Their power is not as high as that of professional ones, but they are also designed for long-term work and are not afraid of interacting with tough plants.
3. Household trimmers. Lightweight and inexpensive device, it is not designed for long-term use, but with its help you can take care of the lawn, remove weeds and just extra plants. This type of trimmer is well suited for regular use in small areas.

In addition, trimmers are divided into gasoline and electric.

Petrol trimmers

There are two types of motor - two-stroke and four-stroke. The motor is noisy in two cycles, runs on a mixture of oil and gasoline. In a four-stroke engine, oil and gasoline are supplied separately, it is more powerful and not as noisy. The kit for benzo-trimmers includes various nozzles and knives for different types of work, including snow removal.

• compactness, lightness;
• the possibility of autonomous work;

• not afraid of weather conditions, humidity.

How to choose a quality electric trimmer?

When choosing the power of an electric trimmer, the most important indicator should be taken into account - the more powerful the tool, the heavier it is. In general, the range of this parameter varies from 250 to 1,800 W, while the weight of the entire structure is from 1.1 kg to 7.5 maximum.

The choice of trimmer largely depends on the size and topography of the treated area. If the territory is small, about two or three acres, for example, then it is best to purchase a device with low power, not higher than 400 watts. In this case, the engine should be located below - this ensures a small weight of the structure. Due to the small rotation diameter of the fishing line, it is convenient to mow grass with this trimmer in small difficult areas, for example, under bushes, around flower beds, near house walls, etc.

If we are talking about a large area, then in this case it is worth giving preference to a powerful trimmer, with an engine on top. It is quite weighty, but due to the strength of the structure, it is ready for long-term serious loads.

The trimmer package should include a protective cover, it’s good if there are two of them, of different sizes.

It is worth saying about the choice of the rod that the curved shape is the most convenient to handle.And the handle is preferable to choose a T-shaped, bicycle, which is the most convenient and comfortable.

Another important parameter is the cutting headset of the device. Most often, electric trimmers are equipped with fishing line, and the thicker it is, the more productive the tool. It is even better if the device is disk or equipped with a knife - such equipment expands the possibilities and allows you to eliminate tough vegetation, nettles and small shrubs.

Recommendations for the repair of a gasoline trimmer

The design of this type of device is more complicated than that of an electric trimmer, due to the presence of an internal drive, fuel tank, control and gas distribution system. Also, sometimes there are difficulties with the acquisition of components and spare parts for gasoline trimmers.

The most common types of faults;

1. Mechanical damage. These include the formation of clogging in the filters. According to the instructions, the filters must be changed regularly.
2. Fuel supply and ignition. This is the area where most of the problems occur. To identify damage, it is necessary to inspect the candle: if there is carbon deposits on it, then the candle should be replaced. Residues of the fuel mixture on the body indicate that the cause of the malfunction is related to the adjustment of the carburetor. Spark plug deposits also appear when working with low-octane gasoline or trimmer malfunctions in cold start mode. A dry spark plug indicates a clogged fuel line, especially if gasoline continues to flow after disconnecting it.
3. Muffler. It often happens that the muffler body is covered with soot, in which case it must be cleaned with kerosene.

Recommendations for repairing an electric trimmer

In most cases, problems can be fixed at home, the main thing is to identify the causes of their occurrence and strictly follow the instructions for using the equipment.

The design of an electric trimmer is simpler than that of a device with a built-in drive. Malfunctions can occur in the mechanical part of the device, in the motor itself or in the power cable.

The most common problems:

1. The line got tangled. In this case, it is necessary to unwind it, and then install a new bobbin (if the old one is damaged).
2. The line is sticky. This occurs when the trimmer overheats after a long period of operation. In this case, the line just needs to be rewound.
3. Coil breakage. It is best to replace the coil with a new one.
4. No head rotation. If at the same time the coil is not damaged, and the engine does not show signs of breakdown, then the cause may be a break in the drive shaft. In such a situation, you should contact the service center.
5. Damage to the power cable. You should not solve this problem with improvised means, it is better and safer to replace the power cable with a new one.
6. Engine breakdown. Most often associated with damage to the plug, which must be disassembled and replaced with a new one.
7. Sometimes the failure is associated with the control knob. To determine this, use an indicator screwdriver, and if damage is found in the wiring, an appropriate replacement must be made.
8. Another reason for stopping the engine may relate to the stator winding. With the help of a multimer, the connections are checked (in the minimum resistance mode), and, if winding violations are detected, either the damaged contact is soldered or a new motor is installed if the winding is burned out.

Any device can detect problems during operation, and it is easier to prevent their occurrence in advance by following the recommendations described in the trimmer's instructions. Proper care, storage and maintenance of the equipment will significantly reduce the risk of the need for repairs. Therefore, before you start using the purchased trimmer, do not forget about the importance of the recommendations described in the instructions for the device.
