Has anyone had problems with the 135° hedge trimmer head for a Stihl combi? I've been replacing mine every 2 years because of bearing failure inside the gear housing. I've always made sure they were greased regularly. The worst part of this was that Stihl would only sell the full head with the pole attached and the price seemed to rise exceptionally every couple of years. The last 135° I purchased was €280. Then when it failed and I went looking for a replacement to discover Stihl had stopped making them but had resigned it into a 145° and bumped the price further to €440! What I'm asking really is will the 145° give the same problems as it's predecessor?
