g'day john,

i'm wading in a bit late here but all i can add is that you shouldn't
run line in these machines that is thicker than that recommended by
the manufacturer, if you have the work for heavier line then you need
to look at upsizing the machine to suit the purpose, by the sounds of
it something around a 20++cc straight shaft model?

also running the heavier line could cause clutch slippage and clutch
burn out, plus as i found the engine needs to work harder.

The engine needs to work harder? Hell I reckon the guy at the end doesnt
really care bout the engine. As long as he doesn't hafta.

Gooday Len.
