OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Finding and Swapping Tip & Curb Side Finds Ryobi Split shaft

Managed to pick up a possibly early 90's ryobi split shaft trimmer from Tiny's at mugga last week, a new carb and she's up and running with a tiller and hedge trimmer attachment.




the photos arent great.

Nice, I have the edger, tiller and whipper attachments, they are a pretty powerful machine if they are running well. I did just score a full on straight shaft ryobi brushcutter with the same engine and huge andsles, heres hoping that will perform like an animal!

i took the original carb off that one and fitted it with a walbro and it is amazing what the tiller will dig through. no more digging by hand!

These machines were made by an American company called ryan.... they built very powerful machines

nice find

COOL! is that the same ryan company that makes all the turf equipment?

Geez, I 've walked past one of those on the roadside! Wont do that again!

Yup! One in the same!

they made lawnboy and ryobi whipper snippers as well as MSA GMC and other name brands....
