This trimmer is powered by a 25cc 2-cycle gas engine and has a straight shaft design. It is equipped with a weedwacker head that has a cutting diameter of 17 inches and uses a 0.080 inch thick nylon cutting line.
The Craftsman Trimmer operates by mixing gasoline and 2-cycle engine oil in a 40:1 ratio to fill up its 10 ounce fuel tank. The trimmer is started using a choke and pull starter rope and once it is running, the nylon line trimmer head rotates to cut grass and weeds. The trimmer has a feature that allows more line to be advanced with a tap on the ground while it's running. It also includes an adjustable assist handle for user comfort and an on/off switch to stop the engine.
