Oh my gosh, thank you for this video. I have owned quite a few string trimmers over the years, and although I am quite mechanical, I swear this head had me stumped because of the poor instructions in the Operators Manual. I fought this dang head trying to wind the string with the head out, no wonder I was having such a hard time. Apologies to whomever designed this, as I was cussing them out & wondered how stupid someone could be to make such a head. Joke was on me, actually quite a remarkable way to wind the string up.
I am so happy I bought this trimmer. This is probably the best/easiest trimmer to refill. Are there any other trimmers out there that reload like this as well?
There easy to assemble I assembled one in 2 mins but the first initial start of weedwacker is a pain you have the pull the rope 20-30 times before it will even start the let it warm up for a min or start cause if you don't it cuts it's self off
i have the same exact one the spring popped off and couldn’t find it therefore i went to lowe’s bought a spring but it was too small any info you can give me on this
hmm, I'd check classified for a used one the same as yours, they're fairly common, and often get thrown out because people leave old gas in them, and they sit and rot, and its cheaper for them to buy new than get serviced in their minds... thats my two cents... other than look up the proper part on homelite's webpage, or other small engine suppliers.
Awesome job. This should be on the Homelite/Home Depot website

Thank the Lord for RUclips. This is perfect. Thank you.
Thanks man, the written and pictorial explanation confused me. Without this video I'd have messed it up.
Thanks for watching.
Ok you just made me finish my search for the right video. Thank you.

How do you take the top off? That’s the part I needed.
Hats off you to sir, just helped me out alot🙏
Thanks for this, I was trying to restring the old school way smh 😄😄
HAHA! : ) Its super easy to load, I find.
Thank you
That was very helpful. I was having a hard time replacing the string with auto feed. The tiny hols are hard to find
You're welcome.
Is there any way to take the entire head off? I'd like to attach a spool with plastic blades
Thanks! I just bought that one today. Haven't even assembled it yet.

It’s a great machine. A few extra pumps on the primer bulb for the fuel will help in those first start-ups. @jim
