How do you fit a unbreakable trimmer head to it

you could always try the Pivotrim head as it,s a common type of one used in the USA (United States of America).

What petrol do I use for an echo GT-22GES trimmer I just inherited from my late father?

50/1 2 stroke

50:1 fuel and oil mixture ratio and for a extended fuel period i prefer a nice qaulity Fuel Stabilizer like what i do in my units and they don,t go bad in the long run too and if you use Silicone Spray for the Guard/Shield/Debris Deflector it will stop the grass from sticking to the plastics and the drive shaft too.

Is this a split shaft, compatible with a hedge cutter attachment?

Hi Nicky,

The curved shaft trimmers (GT) aren't compatible with attachments, however the straight shaft trimmer SRM-222ES can be fitted with an optional hedge trimmer attachment

Any advice on why mine won't idle? I need to keep a finger on the trigger the whole time otherwise it just cuts out. This happens when choke is off and on. Would it be my fuel mix?

Where can I purchase this whipper snipper

Hi Lorraine, You can buy it from Bunnings. The best one is the model GT222-ES which has the bent shaft. They are easier to use than the straight shaft models. They have increased in price to $339 probably due to COVID.

What is the oil to petrol fuel ratio?

Dave H1

Buy a 5 litre jerry can at any petrol station and then buy the 250ml bottle of oil. Put the entire oil contents into the jerry can then fill up with petrol.
