I would love to just get the adapter kit for mine so I could use the Stihl shaft with mine.
I'm thinking that Jack's will probably have the adapters before long.
I hope your right. :D

I got mine in today and attached it to my Echo 58v which uses the Echo PAS system. It uses the middle size shim and the square adapter.

PM me your address and I'll send you my leftovers.
I do appreciate the offer but I too need the square adapter :D

Now that a few people have this . . is anyone contemplating the larger 11" blade set? Or is the 8" fine? I would imagine for inside radius that the smaller the better, however for everything else perhaps the larger setup?

Thanks,

William

I haven't even worn any paint off yet, so hard to say it needs improvement. If you are trying to do a large area, then the larger blades might be nice. I don't think I will have a need for them.

I'm confused. I thought you would only need the 25.4 mm shaft adapter. Does the Kawasaki not use a square driveshaft? If not, then how are you making it work?

When I bought the Kawasaki head I had to buy the shaft for the Maruyama in order for it to fit the Stihl. The Maruyama shaft has the "torx" end that goes in the head and has a "square" end that connects to the Kombi motor. The only downside is that the Maruyama shaft is several inches shorter than the Stihl shaft which is why I want just the adapter to use on the Stihl. I hope I explained that good enough :D

Echo is selling one as an Echo branded attachment on the other side of the pond. I'm convinced that R&R is making them for all of the major brands.
Hot diggity dog. I'm checking to see if this will fit my machine, although I have a feeling the wife is done with me buying power tools for this year. :lol:
