This is a genuine manufacturer-sourced replacement part. It is specially designed for Makita handheld trimmers. This is the tube that the fuel travels through. By pressing the primer bulb it will fill the carburetor with fuel, once it is full the excess fuel will be forced back into the tank through the fuel return line. Note, this high-quality assembly includes a rubber grommet and two durable flexible tubes. Refer to the appropriate diagrams for your model to ensure the exact location and the correct replacement procedure.

Easy Fix
My Trimmer was leaking fuel from the 20+ year old fuel lines. These were perfect fit and were easy to install. No more leaks and everything is working great now.

Purchased this Robin branded (Subaru Commercial) trimmer in 1994 and this was the first time I had performed any maintenance on the trimmer. The maintenance was needed because the fuel tank started leaking gas from around the tank hose. Upon taking the engine cover off (removed 4 screws), I realized the hoses were no longer pliable and hard become hardened. The air filter had disintegrated and half of it was gone. The parts were very simple to replace. Upon replacement, I primed the engine and it started on the second pull, as it has for the past 22 years.
I was so glad to have found this website. The parts were very reasonable and the catalog was very easy to search. It helped that I could see the parts, and find the recommended parts visually. The previous comments were great. Thank you!
