OutdoorKing Repair Forum Forums Repairs and Maintenance Questions on Trimmers and Brushcutters Ryobi Trimmers & Brushcutters ryobi 305 RT rpm

hi bruce
the max rpm for the 305 is 8000 rpm what i want to
know is that set with the line at full lenght or aprox half that
as with some trimmers i have a tachometer
also it has 20:1 on its back cover i use husqvarna
oil at 40:1 in all my equipment i would only use
the richer ratio with those oils that say the are good for
everything and probably no good in anything, are
ryobi as bad i have read about them?
regards tommy

TOMMY,
They only have an expected live span as they are only a domestic machine. i.e 30 minutes once every two weeks that is why you usually only get a 12 month warranty.

Regards,

Bruce
