Mai ka makahiki 2013, ua hoʻolauna mākou i nā alakaʻi no nā lako mana o waho, e like me nā mowers, nā mea puhi hau, a me nā mea puhi lau.ʻO kēia mau haʻawina a me nā hoʻāʻo a pau ua hāʻawi iā mākou i ka ʻike paʻa i ke ʻano o ka lako lawn maikaʻi.Hāʻawi ia iā mākou i kahi ʻike hohonu o nā mea hana like ʻole a me ko lākou mau inoa i ka maikaʻi, ka hoʻohana a me ka lawelawe mea kūʻai aku.
Loaʻa iaʻu ka ʻike nui i ka ʻoki ʻana i ke kaula.Noho au i New Hampshire i kēia manawa a loaʻa iā 2 mau ʻeka o ka mauʻu mowed.Ma hope o kēlā me kēia ʻokiʻoki, hoʻohana au i ka ʻoki kaula a puni nā paia pōhaku, nā moena pua, nā ala, a me nā hale moa no kahi o 30 mau minuke.Loaʻa iaʻu ma kahi o ka hapalua mile o ka pā uila, pono iaʻu e mālama me nā trimmers i ke kauwela āpau (ʻo kēlā me kēia lau o ka mauʻu e ulu a hoʻopā i ka pā e hōʻemi i kona pono).
Ua hoʻāʻo ʻo Harry Sawyers, ka mea hoʻoponopono o kēia alakaʻi a me ka māla ʻoihana mua, i nā mea ʻokiʻoki he nui ma kāna waiwai ʻo Los Angeles, kahi ʻoi loa ma nā wahi he nui e ʻoki ʻia.I kēia hihia, ʻo ka hana maʻamau o ka ʻāina ʻo ka ʻoki ʻana me kahi trimmer i ʻole kahi mea e ʻā ai ke hiki mai ke kau ahi.
ʻO nā mea ʻoki kaula (i kapa ʻia ʻo nā weeders, trimmers, whips, or weeders) ka mea hoʻohui kūpono i nā mower mauu a hiki ke hoʻohui i kahi hopena nani a hōʻoluʻolu i kāu mauu.He kūpono nā ʻoki ʻokiʻoki no nā wahi ākea, ʻoiai e hoʻohana ʻia nā mea ʻoki kaula e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i nā ʻaoʻao a me nā wahi āpau ʻaʻole hiki i nā mower mauu ke hiki aku: nā kihi, nā āpau, a me nā wahi haiki ma waena a ma lalo o nā pā;na ala ololi a me na pali pali ;Ma kahi kokoke i nā pou pahu leta, nā moena hoʻokiʻekiʻe, nā kumulāʻau a me nā pou kukui;ma na pa a me na pa.
ʻO kā mākou ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo trimmer no ka poʻe makemake i nā mea hana hilinaʻi a ikaika e kōkua i ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana ma hope o ka ʻoki ʻana a me ka wehe ʻana i ka mauʻu.ʻAʻole mākou e ʻimi nei i kahi mea hana ʻoihana e hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i ka lā āpau e hoʻopaʻa i nā māla mauʻu, a i ʻole pono e paʻa i ka hoʻohana mau ʻana a paʻa.Ke ʻimi nei mākou i kahi huahana kūpono no ka hoʻohana pinepine ʻana a me ka hoʻohana maʻamau, a lawa ka mana e hana i ka mauʻu, nā mauʻu ʻōpala a me nā kumu lāʻau i kekahi manawa.
Ma kēia alakaʻi, nānā mākou i nā mea ʻoki cordless rechargeable i hiki ke ʻoki ʻia mai ka mauʻu maʻalahi a hiki i ka nāhelehele ulu.Ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka trimmer string gas, ʻoi aku ka mālie o ke kumu hoʻohālike cordless a aneane ʻaʻole pono e mālama mau.Hiki iā ia ke hoʻomaka ma ke kaomi ʻana i kahi pihi, ʻaʻole e hoʻokuʻu i ke kinoea hoʻopau, a hiki ke "hoʻopiha" me ka holo ʻole ʻana i ka hale hoʻokele kinoea wale nō.I loko o nā makahiki, ua hōʻoia kā mākou mau hoʻāʻo ʻana i nā mea hana cordless maikaʻi loa e holo ana i ka manawa a me ka hiki ke ʻoki, a kūpono i nā hana hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻoi loa.Ma ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i kēia mau hiʻohiʻona a me nā ʻoluʻolu, ʻano like ke kumukūʻai o kahi trimmer cordless me ke kumu hoʻohālike-inā ʻoe e noʻonoʻo i ke kumukūʻai lōʻihi o ke kūʻai ʻana i ke kinoea maoli a me ka ʻaila a me ka manawa mālama, ʻoi aku ka haʻahaʻa.I kekahi mau hihia koʻikoʻi, hiki i nā mea hana pneumatic wale nō ke hana - loaʻa iā mākou kahi mea hana pneumatic hiki ke hoʻokō i kēia mau koi.Akā ʻaʻole pili kēia mau mea i ka hapa nui o ka poʻe, no laila ke koena o kēia ʻāpana e wehewehe i kā mākou maʻamau no nā mea ʻoki cordless.
Mana: Hiki i nā mea ʻoki kaula ʻole a pau a mākou e ʻike ai ke ʻoki i ka mauʻu mauu maʻamau, akā makemake mākou i kahi mea ʻoki hiki ke mālama i nā mauʻu loloa a paʻa.ʻO kēia kahi e hoʻomaka ai mākou e ʻike i nā ʻokoʻa nui ma waena o nā hiʻohiʻona.E neʻe ikaika nā mea ʻoki ʻoki nāwaliwali i nā kūlana paʻakikī, nakinaki ʻia me ka mauʻu a i ʻole ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i lalo ma mua o ka ʻoki ʻana i ka mauʻu.I loko o nā kumulāʻau hohonu, hiki i kekahi mau hiʻohiʻona ke ʻoki i nā mea kanu mānoanoa loa, e like me ka pulupulu Japanese knotweed.ʻOiai he wahi kēia e makemake nui ʻia ai nā mowers, he mea hauʻoli i ka hiki i kekahi mau trimmers ke hoʻoponopono iā ia i kahi manawa koʻikoʻi.
Ua ʻike mākou i kekahi mau mea ʻoki māmā loa, kūpono no nā lau liʻiliʻi.Hoʻohana lākou i nā kaula ʻoi aku ka lahilahi a hiki ke ʻoki i ka mauʻu a me nā mauʻu, akā paʻakikī lākou e pili ana i nā mea kanu mānoanoa a mānoanoa.
Ka manawa holo a me ka manawa hoʻopaʻa: Hoʻolako pinepine ʻia nā mea ʻoki kaula ʻole me kahi pākaukau, no laila he mea nui e loaʻa iā lākou ka manawa holo kūpono.I ka wā i lawe mai ai mākou i nā mea ʻoki (40 volts a ʻoi aʻe) i nā māla ulu, ʻo ke kumu hoʻohālike cordless maikaʻi loa i ʻoki ʻia ma mua o 1,000 kapuaʻi square o ka mauʻu mānoanoa a paʻa.I ka unuhi ʻana i kēia i loko o nā ʻōlelo kūpono, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ke kāʻei mauʻu 1 kapuaʻi ākea a puni ke kahua pôpeku holoʻokoʻa.Hiki i ka mea ʻoki hana maikaʻi loa ke ʻoki ma kahi o 3,400 kapuaʻi square, ʻo ia hoʻi ke ʻoki ʻana i ka lōʻihi 1-kapuaʻi like a puni ka ʻāpana o ka ʻoi aku ma mua o ʻekolu hapaha o kahi kahua pōpeku.He nui kēia.E hoʻomanaʻo, ua hoʻāʻo mākou ma lalo o nā kūlana ʻoki paʻakikī, a ke kaʻa nei ka mea hana i ka wikiwiki loa.Ma lalo o nā kūlana maʻamau, hiki ke lōʻihi ka manawa holo.
Akā he mea ʻē aʻe ke kau ʻana i ka manawa.Hoʻohana ka hapa nui o kēia mau mea ʻokiʻoki i nā pākaukau nui, a liʻiliʻi paha lākou e hoʻopiha piha.No ka pau ʻana o ka pākaukau i ka wā o ka hoʻohana ʻana, makemake mākou i kahi mea hana me ka manawa pōkole hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia e hōʻemi i ka downtime.
ʻO ka hōʻoluʻolu a me ke kaulike: Mai kahi hiʻohiʻona ergonomic, ʻo ka trimmer kahi mea ʻē aʻe ma mua o ke koʻokoʻo lōʻihi me ke kaumaha ma kēlā me kēia hopena.Hiki iā lākou ke hana paʻakikī, no laila i ka wā o kā mākou hoʻāʻo ʻana, ua nānā mākou i ke koena holoʻokoʻa o kēlā me kēia hiʻohiʻona a me ka maʻalahi o ka lawe ʻana i kēlā me kēia hiʻohiʻona.Loaʻa i kekahi mau kiʻi no nā kaula poʻohiwi, he pā maikaʻi ia.He mea koʻikoʻi like: pehea ke kelepona a me ka pane ʻana iā lākou.Pono ke kumu hoʻohālike kūleʻa i ka pae kiʻekiʻe o ka pololei ma ke poʻo trimmer e hoʻomaʻamaʻa i ka ʻoki ʻana i ka mauʻu-me ka ʻole o ka pōʻino i nā pua.
Hoʻololi i ka milo maʻalahi: Ma o ka hahau ʻana a me ka ʻoki ʻana, haki ke kaula o ka trimmer i ka wikiwiki wikiwiki, no laila ʻaʻole ia he mea maʻamau ke kau ʻia kahi kaula hou ma ka trimmer i kēlā me kēia manawa.No ka manawa lōʻihi, ʻo ke kau ʻana i kahi kaula hou ma luna o ka mea ʻokiʻoki ʻo ia ka mea hoʻonāukiuki loa o ka mea ʻoki kaula, akā maʻalahi nā kumu hoʻohālike hou i kēia ma o ka wili ʻana i ke kaula i ke poʻo mea hana ma o ka ʻōnaehana ʻakomi a lima paha.

ʻOi aku ka kiʻekiʻe o ka mana a me ka manawa holo o ka Ego ST1511T ma mua o nā trimmers ʻē aʻe a mākou i ʻike ai.Ua alakaʻi mākou i kahi hoʻāʻo pākaukau ma ke kumu hoʻohālike mua, a ua hoʻemi ʻo Ego ma kahi o 3,400 kapuaʻi square o nā māla paʻa o ka mauʻu, nā mauʻu a me nā kumu lāʻau (kahi ʻāpana kokoke i 60 x 60 kapuaʻi) ma hope o ka hoʻoiho pākahi pākahi.I kēlā manawa, ʻoki ʻia ka lua o ka mea ʻokiʻoki maikaʻi loa ma kahi o 2,100 square feet (kokoke he 40% hoʻemi);Ma waho aʻe o kēlā, ʻoki ʻia nā mea ʻē aʻe i 1,600 kapuaʻi square a i ʻole ka liʻiliʻi (emi iho ma mua o 50% o ka hoʻopau ʻana iā ia iho).Mai ka hiʻohiʻona o ka hana a Ego, hiki iā ia ke ʻoki i ka mauʻu 1 kapuaʻi ākea ma hope o ka hoʻouka ʻana i ka pākaukau, ʻelua hapakolu o ka mile ka lōʻihi.He mea maʻalahi ka mālama ʻana i nā lau nahele ākea loa.I ka ʻike ʻana i kēia, ʻaʻole ia he mea kupanaha e hiki i ka Ego ST1511T ke hoʻokō i nā pono ʻokiʻoki o kahi waiwai nui o New Hampshire ma ka uku hoʻokahi (pono kēia ma kahi o 900 linear kapuaʻi o ke ʻoki ʻana a me kahi 556 kapuaʻi square hou o ke ʻoki ʻana. Ma kahi pālahalaha, ka lawnmower hiki "t hiki mai).
Inā ʻike ʻoe i kahi pākaukau make, hiki ke hoʻopiha piha ʻia ka charger o Ego ma kahi o 40 mau minuke.Inā makemake ʻoe e loaʻa i kahi hōʻoia no ka lua o ka pila (ʻoiai ʻaʻole mākou e manaʻo he pono ia), hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana i kahi pākaukau hou, mai US $150 a i US $400 ma muli o nā hola ampere.
He mea kupanaha ka mana o ka Ego e like me kona manawa holo, a ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi o nā trimmers ʻē aʻe a mākou i hoʻāʻo ai ke hoʻohālikelike i kona ikaika ʻoki loa.Ke ʻoki ʻana ma ke kula a i ʻole ma nā pali o Los Angeles, ʻaʻole mākou e kū, kānalua a lohi paha i ka hoʻohana ʻana iā Ego.ʻOki ia i ka wikiwiki a mākou e koli ai i ke poʻo trimmer.Hoʻopaʻa nā mea ʻoki ʻē aʻe iā lākou iho i ka mauʻu kiʻekiʻe, a i ʻole (ke alo i nā ʻōpala paʻa) e hoʻolei i ka mauʻu i lalo ma mua o ka ʻoki ʻana.Ma luna o ka mānoanoa Japanese knotweed, hele pololei ʻo Ego ma ke kumu mānoanoa 1 iniha, me he mea lā ʻaʻole lākou i ola.ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi o ka hoʻopau ʻana i kēia hana a ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻoki ʻia nā mea ʻoki ʻē aʻe.
Akā ʻaʻole ʻo Ego wale nō no ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i nā māla a me ka luku ʻana i ka knotweed Japanese invasive (ʻoiai he mea maikaʻi loa ia).Loaʻa i ka trimmer ʻelua ka wikiwiki a me kahi hoʻololi wikiwiki.ʻO kēia hoʻonohonoho e hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomalu piha i ke poʻo ʻokiʻoki, e ʻae iā ʻoe e ʻimi i ka wikiwiki ʻoki kūpono no ka hana, mai ka wehe ʻana i nā mauʻu mānoanoa a hiki i ka hana maikaʻi ʻana a puni nā perennials a me nā ʻili palupalu e like me ka pena ʻana a i ʻole nā ​​grids.Ma kēlā mau wahi ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi, hoʻololi mākou i kahi hoʻonohonoho haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa, no laila hiki iā mākou ke mālama i ka maʻalahi o ka huki ʻana i ke kumu holoʻokoʻa, akā ʻaʻole e ʻae i ka trimmer i kona wikiwiki loa.
Ma waho aʻe o kāna hana, ka manawa holo a me ka mana, ʻo ka hoʻolālā ergonomic o ka mea hana ka mea maikaʻi loa a mākou i hoʻāʻo ai.ʻOi aku ka nui o ke kaumaha o Ego ma mua o 10 paona, no laila ʻaʻole ia ka māmā loa o kāna papa.Akā, maʻalahi loa ka hoʻokele ʻana ma muli o kāna kaulike maikaʻi a me ka hoʻohui ʻana i ke kumu telescopic a me ka hoʻoponopono wikiwiki ʻana i ke koʻokoʻo (ma ke kumu hoʻohālike mua ʻo Ego, hiki ke hoʻoneʻe ʻia ke koʻokoʻo ma ka wehe ʻana i kahi ʻano o nā screws).Hāʻawi kēia mau hiʻohiʻona ʻelua i ka hoʻolālā ergonomic o Ego e hana maʻamau no nā kiʻekiʻe a me nā ʻano like ʻole, ʻaʻole mākou i ʻike maoli ma kēia mau trimmers nui.Inā ʻoe e hoʻohana i ka trimmer ma ke ʻano he trimmer, hiki ke hoʻololi maʻalahi i ka hoʻololi ʻana i ka lima.
ʻO Ego kahi mea ʻelua uea, ʻo ia hoʻi, ʻelua mau kaula e hoʻolōʻihi ʻia mai ke poʻo ʻoki.A ua lako ia me kahi kaula trimmer 0.095 iniha, aia ma ka ʻaoʻao mānoanoa, e kōkua ana i ka hiki ke ʻoki o ka trimmer (aia nā ʻano 0.095 mau kaula e koho ai).Hiki i kēia ʻano Ego ke ʻae i nā uea liʻiliʻi, e like me ka ʻōlelo a ka luna ʻoihana iā mākou, "E hoʻonui maoli ia i ka manawa holo, akā e hala hou aku nā uea, no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka lahilahi o ka uea, ʻoi aku ka haki."Ua hoʻāʻo mākou i nā mea ʻē aʻe ʻO nā ʻāpana ikaika he mau mīkini ʻoki uea ʻelua, ʻo ka hapa nui o lākou e hoʻohana i nā uea 0.095.
ʻO ka Ego ka ʻōnaehana laina maʻalahi loa a mākou i hoʻohana ai, a ua wehewehe ʻia ke kaʻina hana ma ka manual Ego ST1510T (PDF).I ka pau ana o na kaula, e wili wale ma kahi o 16 kapuai o ke kaula ma ke poo oki i 8 kapuai e ku ana ma kela aoao keia aoao, a laila e wehe i kona poi.A laila e kaomi wale i kahi pihi a e hoʻihoʻi koke ke kaula i ke poʻo trimmer, no laila ua mākaukau ka mea hana holoʻokoʻa e hoʻohana i loko o kekahi mau kekona.He mea paʻakikī ke hoʻonui i kēia hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana ma luna o ka ʻaoʻao ʻino loa o ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā mea ʻoki kaula.No ka hapa nui o nā mea ʻokiʻoki ʻē aʻe, pono ʻoe e hoʻokaʻawale i ke poʻo trimmer holoʻokoʻa a hoʻowili lima i ke kaula hou ma luna o ka spool (he hana hoʻoluhi mau kēia).ʻO ka ʻōnaehana ʻo Ego kahi hoʻomaikaʻi i makemake nui ʻia ma kēia wahi.
Inā ʻoki ke kaula i ka wā e ʻoki ai ʻoe, hiki iā Ego ke holomua maʻalahi i ka laina hānai collision.E kaomi wale i ka lalo o ke poʻo trimmer ma ka honua, a e hānai ʻia kahi ʻāpana kaula mai ka spool i loko.ʻO ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi ma ka ʻaoʻao lalo o ka pale ʻōpala e ʻoki i ka hopena o ke kaula i kahi lōʻihi kūpono.Hiki i ka spool ke hoʻopaʻa ma kahi o 16 kapuaʻi o ke kaula, no laila e loaʻa iā ʻoe kahi lako hoʻomau, pono ia no nā kaʻina ʻokiʻoki lōʻihi a ʻoi aku paha.
