I'm curious what are you lot doing to these poor Stihl heads as I run mine daily and apart from the shaft clamp being broken it still works perdectly. I do grease mine weekly though

 

 

Do you have employees?

I want one for my Kombi as I only have the straight, non-adjustable head on mine.

yep last year i had an old 0-90 degree model that started chewing the bevel gears so rather than faff around with spare parts i went to MST in Tiverton who had only 1 0-135 degree left in stock and it was fitted to a display machine! They removed it and sold it to me fer about £215 all in i think. No brainer as it's a complete unit with new blades etc. I kept the old worn out 0-90 head for spares.

 

They said there was a huge back order on the newer 0-145 model head and weren't sure how long before they became available, Radmore and Tucker in Exeter said the very same.

 

If yer lucky enuf to source a new 0-90 or a 0-135 i would be inclined to grab it asap.

The new 145 head doesnt look too bad at all. Looks they've addressed the blade flexing issue but what have they taken away from the original 135 head. https://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/products-page/machines/brushcutters-strimmers-attachments/brushcutter-strimmer-attachments/stihl-hl-145-degrees-hedge-trimmer-attachment-20-cut-available-may-2017/?gclid=CjwKEAjw5_vHBRCBtt2NqqCDjiESJABD5rCJhfUN0woqHuQJoI1yKHcySBbOYbi750Fo5ulXMUPnbBoCkWTw_wcB

Looks a lot like the echo head to me?
