A flywheel cannot increase the rpms. Under no load conditions it might
run a few rpms faster than with a line head simply because there is a
little less air resistance but there is no need to "detune" it. Most
strait shaft trimmers are built to take a blade.

Why is it that there never seems to be any decent advice from webtv people?
