Question 1

Amazon listing says, "holds .080" to .155" Round", ...but Tanaka website says, ".080" to .115" Round" Big difference! Which is correct?

Accepted Answer

I still have the original Tanaka packaging that says .080 to .155 (round) I do not use that large of line but if I insert a .149 drill bit, it fits and holds perfectly.

Question 2

How to install the Tanaka No Brainer on my Hitachi Straight Shaft without instructions?  Missing instructions.

Accepted Answer

I have the Hitachi cg24eksl straight shaft trimmer too and the Tanaka No Brainer fits. You just have to:1) take the head off of the hitachi (stick allen key in side hole to hold/block it so that you can unscrew the head off)2) unscrew outer bushing (threaded on outside) with a good wrench.3) take the current thin washer off4) put the provided tanaka thicker washer on5) screw the head right on (with the D arbor/bushing that the No Brainer comes pre-installed with)

Question 3

will it fit a tanaka tcb-430pf trimmer?

Accepted Answer

It's hard to say if the trimmer head will fit a certain trimmer if as a consumer you don't have both yourself or are privy to such information.   The Tanaka USA website has a contact for technical information, it seems that since both the trimmer and head are their products, they could probably answer the question with certainty, or at least it's worth a try to get a definitive answer by contacting them with the question.

Question 4

Will it work on a shindaiwa t230x.

Accepted Answer

I worked on my Honda trimmer, their website lists the models it fits on plus it supplies adapters for most major brands. I use this on both of my Honda trimmers works great, changing trim lines just a push button and you are running again. Great product.
