I want to get a harness for my trimmer. It gets a little heavy after a couple of hours plus I’m not 20 anymore. Also, I’m left handed so I was hoping I could get some recommendations on a comfortable harness to attach to my Echo trimmer. Any input would be appreciate.

If Echo doesn't make a harness, why not try Shindawa? I'm not left handed... If the harness doesn't suit you, you can cut it up and reverse it.

The ones Echo sends with there units are barbie doll sized and we throw them in the garbage. We switched to these Klein made tool totes straps which are much wider and better padded. We used harnesses at one time but will not go back to them.

my echo trimmer came with a harness that had a large plastic danger sign that is kinda woven in and lays flat on your back.

it shows a guy with a circle of safety that a visitor must avoid.

can't use the harness and the warning sign became a target.
