    Question:
    Hi,

    I am trying to figure out what diameter string is supposed to be used in my brand new 223L. The manual - missing several pages and assembled with pages in alternating directions (reminiscent of a Red Max manual I had in the 80's except the English is better) - has images for both 0.080 and 0.095.

    Do I have a choice?

    If so, if there a preferred size? I would imagine the larger diameter is more durable, but does it put additional strain on the bearings?

    Thanks!

    James

       Owners manual tech data has .079-.095 diameter and 18' long implying it doesn't matter about the thickness as long as the spool is not over loaded. Hope that helps.
