We have the star-shaped blade for our Stihl and we just switch to it from the line when needed. My husband does it, and it only takes him maybe 3 minutes. We have a harness for our trimmer, so I don't have any trouble using it at all. Our old one had a strap that went over one shoulder, but that one made my back hurt something awful. The harness is wonderful.

P.S. Is there a chance that this area is flat enough that you could just raise your mower blades up to maximum height and mow over it?

Redmax makes some awesome stuff. Better than stihl in my opinion
