Tools and Hardware Reviews of Troy-Bilt TB590BC 18-Inch 29cc 4-Cycle Gas Powered Straight Shaft String Trimmer/Brush Cutter With Detachable Shaft

Customer Review: Excellent Machine
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this machine primarily to clear brush at our family cabin and also because it will take other attachments, such as the pole saw, to help with this purpose. It's handy to have a 4-cycle machine so I don't have to mix oil with the gas and I've never had difficulty getting it to start. I follow the starting directions of the manufacturer and it starts right up, runs well, and does the job for me. I've never used the brush blade that came with the machine as I prefer to use a Beaver Blade, two flat metal plates welded together with a chainsaw chain around the edge. I was surprised Amazon doesn't list the Beaver Blade at this time, at least not with any of the searches I tried, but this blade goes through brush as if it isn't even there and you feel like you're swinging the machine through air. You can easily find a Beaver Blade through a google search, though, and they're available in a variety of diameters to fit just about any machine. Beaver Blades cost more than most blades, but they also do much more than most blades and do it with ease. They sharpen just like a chainsaw and will even cut down trees up to 3" in diameter (mine went through a 3" oak growing too close to the driveway as if it were soft butter). If one opts to use a Beaver Blade, I can't recommend strongly enough to have a durable face shield with a metal mesh as opposed to the nylon mesh most shields have as I don't think nylon mesh would stand up long to the debris that was stinging my face the first time I used a Beaver Blade while wearing safety glasses without a face shield. I chose the Rockman Premium Safety Helmet which has 24 dB ear muffs, the metal mesh face shield, a well-ventilated helmet, and the optional safety goggles which slide down to your eyes and retract into the helmet between your eyes and the face shield. Unfortunately, this safety helmet isn't available at Amazon, either, at this time.

As to the machine, it assembles easily, starts easily, and runs powerfully and well and I'd recommend it to anyone. The EZ-Link attachment connection permits EZ-Link attachments not only made by Troy-Bilt, but also made by Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Homelite, McCulloch, Ryobi, Yard Machines, and Yard-Man. I also use the pole saw attachment with this machine which also works very well, although it lists as giving you up to 11 feet of reach but the actual measurement when connected to this machine along with the extension boom is 8 feet from the butt of the motor to the tip of the chainsaw.
