Q: Where can you get replacement parts for the engine? by Holloman from Pennsylvania on July 03, 2016
A: Holloman,
Blue Max lists this small engine as their own brand. This being said, you will need to reach out to Blue Max directly at 800-348-5004 for further assistance with engine replacement parts. by Dale, Product Expert
Q: Does this unit have a solid shaft or cable? by Jan Jeffers from Tennessee on May 16, 2015
A: Jason - the Blue Max 52623 is not compatible with other attachments. This is strictly a trimmer and brush cutter. That yellow knob on the shaft does disconnect the two sections of the shaft, but this is only used if you want to remove the bicycle style handle from the upper shaft. by Dale, Product Expert
The Blue Max 52623 may be economically priced, but it shares many of the same attributes you will find in "higher end" hand held brush cutters.
With the Blue Max 52623 you have the option of using this as a string trimmer, or utilizing the dual purpose guard to transform the unit into a heavy duty brush-cutter. The blade is included with this model.

A Monster
This weed/brush trimmer is one powerful tool. It easily chopped down 2- to 3-inch diameter brush in no time. Smaller brush, it sliced through like butter. I got the chainsaw blade with it. Together, they are a unbeatable value.

Good Machine For The Price, But Flawed.
This is a good machine, but it is heavy, not easy to start, the string assembly flies off and the assembly instructions are skimpy..
Pros:Price
Cons:Heavy, Bad Instructions, Difficult To Use

"Good outfit though overly optimistic in their product recommendations."
I've only had this weedeater about 2 weeks but have absolutely put it through hell. I purchased a 68 tooth Renegade Razor brush cutting blade and have destroyed some serious brush and trees. With that blade attached I have easily mowed down a lot of new growth trees ranging in size from 1/4" to 2". So far I would highly recommend this product.
Pros:Price, I'd Buy It Again, Exceeded Expectations, Durable
When I first got it the gear head was so stiff the spool could not spin. The company was very helpful in sending me a new gear head that worked fine. - Good customer service. -
I am very satisfied with this machine. I paid $140 for it with free shipping. An equivalent machine would be well over $200. Don't mount the handlebars in the middle of the bar. Look at the drawings. The shoulder strap could be better but that would raise the price of the unit. For the price I can use my own shoulder strap. It is heavy but what do you expect with that size of motor? The motor size is a major reason I bought it. I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Blue Max Trimmer/brush Cutter
This Brush cutter out performs my old Sears brush cutter. It is also runs much quieter than old brush cutter. Only complaint is the bar that mounts the handles is twisted so the handles are not directly across from each other. This make it more difficult to control than my old brush cutter. Also I am left handed and the twisted handles cannot be shifted to accommodate this. Although this brush cutter is heavier than my old brush cutter it is also more powerful and is advertised as heavy duty.
I've only used the product a couple times so far, but I was clearing some fairly heavy brush and was very happy with the performance.
Pros:Price, I'd Buy It Again, Exceeded Expectations, Reliable
Cons:Heavy

Great Value
This trimmer / brush cutter is a bargain compared to others with the same features. It is very powerful and gets the job done easy . It is a little on the heavy side but unless you are lazy and weak, its no so bad that you can't deal with it. If you are looking for a powerful machine at a great price, I say give this a try. I highly recommend it and I would buy again if needed .
Pros:Price, Features, Durable, High Quality
Cons:Heavy
