Hello friends, now I will show you a working idea of how, in half an hour, without a special tool, to convert an ordinary grinder into a tool for mowing grass. But I will show you an already tested working model, with which I mowed enough grass. There will be a video at the end.
For this homemade product, I used a 1.1 kW Interskol grinder. With a speed regulator. I set the speed at maximum speed. You can see the full characteristics of this angle grinder on the "Beru" playmarket. From Yandex and Sberbank. By the way, I have had it for a long time. And it works fine. And even in the mowing of grass she coped.
How to attach the mowing line. As practice has shown. It is this arrangement of the cutting thread, as in the photo, that allows it not to break when cutting the grass. You only need to push it into the prepared holes.
The button was fixed with a nylon clamp. We will not bend over to it constantly to turn it on.
To fasten the mesh, which protects the engine from sucking in small blades of grass and excess moisture, I used a 70 mm water pipe clamp.
To protect his mortal body from flying grass and pebbles, he used a sheet of metal from the case of a CD-ROM computer. you can make it from a piece of tin if you wish.
Secured it with a clamp. Bending the hairpin around the circumference of the grinder and tightened it with nuts. dripping super glue on them to fix.
Next, it remains to pick up a long bolt and screw it into the grinder through a polypropylene tube with a diameter of 32 mm. Drilled at an angle. In the angle grinder, a threaded hole is already located in the center. For attaching the handle.
The second mount I have goes to the water support which is attached to the mesh to protect the engine.
This angle grinder hangs on the pipe, and wires are attached to it. Wrapping them with duct tape. I made a switch on the extension cord. For easy launch.
How she copes with mowing grass you can see here -link.
Honestly, I did not expect that she could mow the grass at all, but it took her to do it. The grass is higher and higher every day in the country. And the cordless trimmer will only come in a week. So I got confused. Of course, I will not torment the angle grinder like this anymore, but it is worth noting that the gearbox did not get too hot. I worked in the mode of 5 minutes cutting, 5 minutes driving tea. Due to the fact that the center of gravity was all in front, the arms and back were very tired. If you do such a thing, then only on wheels and then from an old unnecessary grinder. That's all I wanted to say.
