The problem comes from the design.

A walk-behind trimmer rides only on its two rear wheels. To operate it, you must constantly press down on the handlebar to lift the trimmer head off the ground, while also squeezing the accelerator bar to keep the machine moving.

Over time, this becomes exhausting. The trimmer is heavy and bulky, and the engine vibration combined with uneven ground, rough terrain, and slopes causes strain on your arms, shoulders, and lower back.

Many owners say they cannot finish their yard work the way they want because the machine wears them out quickly. They often have to stop after a short time due to discomfort or pain.

This is why so many people look for ways to make their walk-behind trimmer easier to control, safer to maneuver, and more comfortable to use.

I have personally struggled and felt frustrated while trimming with my Craftsman Walk-behind trimmer. It was hard to control and maneuver because it rides on two wheels. The trimmer was heavy, noisy, and vibrated during trimming.

Great news for owners of walk-behind trimmers.

The 1st US Patent Pending 3rd Wheel Conversion Kit for any walk-behind trimmer.

In 2017, I invented the WBTAP, which stands for "Walk Behind Trimmer Attachment Plate." The WBTAP is an aluminum plate measuring 24" x 15" x 7/16". It is equipped with a 5" caster swivel wheel and comes with a set of 4 bolts, nuts, and washers. Our bolts are 1/2" longer than the original bolts for secure fitting.

Installing the WBTAP on any trimmer, regardless of brand or model, is very simple. You only need two 7/16" wrenches.

Stand your trimmer upright. Snap the WBTAP underneath the black plastic guard protector. Secure the bolts. The entire installation process takes less than 15 minutes.

Benefits of Using the WBTAP:

• Eliminate pressing down on the handlebar and move the trimmer with one hand.
• Make smooth 360-degree turns with ease.
• Reduce fatigue and body aches during trimming.
• Improve maneuverability and control.
• Enjoy a quieter and more comfortable trimming experience.

The WBTAP fits a wide range of walk-behind trimmer brands and models. Check our shop for compatibility details and find the perfect fit for your trimmer.
