Summary: Homelite "plasticstuff"
Comment: I bought one for the known Homelite reputation
Well rite out of the box it did not start
Followed handle directions followed to a tee a couple times or more.
Finally after pulling the rope till my arm almost fell off it started and worked flawlessly.
Cold start for the one i have is an issue.
After it sits for awhile or the next day you have to choke the breath out of it before it attempts to start.
Finally found that the ROTO-choke (plastic)was not covering the carbruetor throat enough to give enough choke for starting from a cold start.
Replaced roto choke assembly and now it is working the way a Homelite is supposed to.
As a previous reviewer said
Be sure you have a seperate gas can for your 2 cycle oil mix. and be sure it is NOT outboard oil or 30 weight motor oil your mixing.
Be sure your mixing oil has a picture of a gas trimmer or a chain saw or specified for your trimmer.
Your mixture ratio will be 50:1
I am using 40:1 that is 3.2 oz of air cooled 2cycle oil to be mixed with 1 (one) gallon of fresh gas 87 octane ok ,but i use 89 octane.
Stabilizer also,but some 2cycle oil has stabilizer already in it.
and if your fuel has ethanol in it you can buy at walmart a marine stabilizer that is specified for ethanol mixed fuel IE;10%
Minor issues with the trimmer,but it does what i need
If you want top of the line you will have to spend alot more money.

Summary: pleased but surprised
Comment: Very powerful trimmer, good contruction, strong blade but a little heavy. Have to be a strong person with powerful arms to operate for even short periods. Does the job most efficiently.

Summary: You take your chances
Comment: Bought two of these machines, one in late summer and one in October 2008.
The first one works fine and I love it - the second one I purchased for a friend is a dud. Won't start and you can tell that gas isn't getting into the primer. Also, you can tell it's used. In the future if I can't return it to Amazon, I'll buy it elsewhere.

Summary: Homelite Disaster
Comment: Factory-Reconditioned Homelite 26cc Gas-Powered MightyLite Hedge Tr (Non-CARB Compliant) #ZR40502has so far proven to be a waste of money. It does not run for more than ten minutes. The repair shop tried once to fix it, but didn't succeed so it will be going back. This is an expensive nuisance since the shop is 21 miles from my house and gas is expensive. I can only say that beware of Homelite reconditioned stuff even if done at the factory. This is the second such product I have bought and both have been problems

Summary: Not Even Reconditioned?
Comment: I'm all for a deal and have purchased several reconditioned/remanufactured products that were awesome. However, this trimmer is not one of those success stories. It came in a brown box with some brown paper packaging. That's it. No manual, no warranty card, no suitable packing material. The casing of the trimmer was highly scratched. After following the starting instructions written on the handle, it started after about 50 pulls and then promptly quit when I actually tried to trim something. It has since started only sporadically and still cuts off soon after it is put into use if it even starts at all. I would advise that you spend the extra 20-50 bucks and get something else.
