Our son is a new homeowner. He took delivery of his new zero turn mower yesterday and he asked me what I thought he should get for a trimmer. I have been using the 24V Kobalt for over a year and it's great. Light weight, powerful and honestly, as this gentleman illustrates, pretty simple to reload. I have other Kobalt hand tools also so there are enough batteries and chargers around the place to keep everything in freshly charged batteries. I have a big Stihl Combi unit also but now defer to this machine . It just works great!
For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. ruclips.net/user/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG I didn't like the fact that they just kept cutting the edge of the lawn further and further from the rock lining the flower beds and leaving bare ground. And the grass was trimmed or scalped several feet around trees, etc. It was a constant battle with them so I told them to just mow and no trimming. I have Zoysia grass so it grows pretty slow. Obviously after a while it could use some trimming. I'm in my 80's so I can't do much of it myself.Finally I decided that if I could find a lightweight battery powered trimmer I might be able to do some light trimming. I decided to buy the LST201 20V trimmer. And it works great for my needs. I have back yard with about 150' of flower beds and several trees to be trimmed. I can lightly trim the whole yard with a single charge! The grass I trimmed was only a few inches high but the trimmer was more powerful than I expected.
I’ll say, I’ve had 5yrs of trouble free service out of mine so far ..! Thanks for watching..!
I was struggling to open the weed eater to replace the string. I watched a couple of videos but your video was the clearest. Thank you for the information!
Absolutely, thank you for your feedback..! And thanks for watching..!
Instruction manuals are extremely vague. Your video shows how simple restringing is. Thanks for taking the time to show us how.
My pleasure Daniel, thanks for watching and taking time to comment..!
Thank you. The instruction manual wasn't very helpful. I finally figured it out but your instructions gave me confidence that I had it right.
Most excellent, glad I could help.. thanks for watching..!
Weed eater string replacement for dummies! I love this video makes it soo easy . I went out and immediately replaced ours with no problem except for pushing the buttons on the side bc of arthritis but wonderfully easy after that. Thank you soo much. Usually have to wait for my husband to get around to doin it. Glad I can do it myself now.
I really enjoyed your response. My wife read it and she’s dancing with joy at your empowerment. She doesn’t like to wait on me to do things either. So glad to assist, thanks for watching, PS, She’s the one who told me to make the video…! Shhhh
finally a video on the Kobalt hub that I can work with ! Thanks so much !
Lol, thanks Ken, and thanks for watching..!
Man I triied searching the internet for how to load line into a corded Kobalt trimmer and came up with squat! Until I found you! THANKS!
Thanks Bill, glad to help…and thanks for watching..!
Thank you!! You are a wizard! I've been fighting this stupid trimmer line for years over multiple videos and yours is the only one that made sense (and worked) for me.
Excellent, your comment made my day.. Thanks for watching..!!
PERFECT for those with little hand strength- thank you!
Just want to say big thank you for putting this up! I'm a divorce single mom of 2 who takes care of my own yard. Purchased the string trimmer a while ago and this was incredibly helpful in my being able to restring my Kobalt trimmer. It's an "Easy Wind" but I don't have the hand strength to turn the knob counter clockwise. It is so much more simple for me to use your method- done in seconds and hands aren't torn apart! Thank you!
What a wonderful response, thank you for sharing, truly warms my heart.. be safe, enjoy and thanks for watching..!
Thanks for sharing your stringing tips. Widows need a little help at times and not fast talkers.. Thanks again!
lol, glad to help.. thanks for watching..!
This is the 4 th instructional video I watched for the 40 v kobalt edger and you did a good job for a clear and simple instruction . Thank you so much .
Good to hear, thanks for watching..!
I just went back to this video to restring my thing again! Its the same video that i found you guys(lol) on to begin with! You guys are the gift that keeps on giving! Thanks again, my friend! This is may 19, 2023! I hope that when you see this that all is well up there!
All couldn’t be better boss, gotta tell ya.. it tickled me to see your comment on this video.. glad you got to come back for a second helping..! I think it’s the most popular video I have out there.. take care good sir, appreciate you …!
@@meanderingyogi6562 My life is being enhanced by your presence and I truly appreciate your being in it! Thanks Again!
Update 8/15/2021: Yes, this works like a charm and the Ugly Line cuts my weeds better than the regular string that came with the Kobalt. Don't hesitate to try this. I'm delighted! 8-)
Thank you sir! You have made this so easy for me. I was about to go buy the expensive one already loaded but now I am going to get some Ugly Line and give this a try. I'm actually chuckling to myself because I now know so much more about my trimmer than I did before and I know that I can do this myself thanks to your tutorial. You are the best!
Oh, thank you Janet for your kind feedback, so glad to help. Wishing you all the best, be safe & enjoy! Thanks for watching..

Bro makes it look so easy.
Lol, thanks for watching..!!
very helpful! thanks
Very welcome, thanks for watching..!
GOOD VIDEO. TWO TIPS. WHEN LOOPING AND CRIMPING THE LINE, WHERE YOU START AT THE TWO ENDS, MAKE ONE END EITHER SHORTER OR LONGER THAN THE OTHER. THEN DO AS NORMAL WITH THE LOOP. BOTH SIDES SHOULD COME OUT EVEN. THE OTHER IS DO NOT BUMP THE LINE HOLDER ON THE CEMENT. DO IT ON THE GRASS AND IT WILL LAST LONGER. ONCE AGAIN, GOOD VIDEO.
Thanks for the tips, especially on the line length good one. I knew about the bumping on concrete.. appreciate you watching and taking a minute to leave a comment..!
I bought one of these used from a local guy. He thought the separation between the blue button and the spool was a crack and that the spool was broken. I got a deal because of it. The trimmer was fine. He had the wrong size string in it (smaller diameter than recommended), but I think it will work. This was helpful. It's not very difficult.
I wish I would have made the switch to battery tools years ago. Gas is a hassle and the smell gives me a headache.
Perfect, if it doesn’t work out I think the new spools are fairly priced & you would have the option of upgrading as well, totally agree on the gas smell, loved it when I was young. Now I too get headaches from it..
Thanks so much, this worked great for me. :)
Absolutely welcome, thanks for watching..!
Your video really save me some money because ive been looking for a replacement ready to go spool and was on was fence on whether I should buy another one😔Thanks for the step by step instructions. Easy Peasy😉

I know how to change it - and I have. It's still a pain to chain. You give some good tips, especially on the line to use. Tnx
Most welcome Curtis, thanks for watching..!
Thank you, sir!! I love how easy you made this to follow and how easy going you are. I’ve been testing to figure out how to load mine for months now and I wondered about hitting the ground so I appreciate that tip! Also, thanks for adding “girls” each time you caught yourself saying guys!! I’ve been trying to be more inclusive in my language as well, but it can be hard to break old habits!
Agreed, I aced the big ones, but the old little habits are the tough ones, lol. Thanks for the kind words and watching..

Very helpful
Excellent, thanks for watching Linetta...!
Thank you, sir
Most welcome sir, thanks for watching..!
Thank You this really help me alot. I was really frustrated trying to load the string. Just to let you know I am a girl so very helpful.
Your very welcome Cordy, glad to help eliminate that frustration.. Wishing you all the best and thanks for watching…!
Excellent thank you! Now to try to find a video on how to change it to blade
If I knew a good one I would tell you, I haven't tried a blade on it, only string.. Thanks for watching..!
Thanks for replying.. I didn't expect that. Ive now subscribed to you.. Love how you teach and present. People tease me about being a RUclips Mechanic, because I work I work on my 2000 Ranger. Until the job is too big! Lol
So..My brother in law..in WI.. (I'm in KY) .showed me how to use a blade on a Stihl. ..but I didn't watch him put it on. It helped save string with so many saplings. I was working in country few weeks ago,, husband came back with this 40v Kobalt he bought. I love Kobalt everything! I was amazed how easy to use.
I told our daughter in PA about it, now she's getting one. Thanks to you, I can show her how to easily change the string when I go up there in June.
I'll check out your your other uploads. Love your laid back way! Thanks again!
Kim in KY
Wow, thank you Kim. RUclips & Goggle with a hint of common sense, can turn you into a Mechanic and me into a Baker..lol, my latest venture...baking homemade bread.. Thanks for the kind words and subscribing..!
My line doesn't come out when it gets short after trimming. What my problem? You answered it for me. The Best instructions. Thank you
That's awesome, your very welcome. And again thank you for watching..!
Thank you
Thank you for watching..!
Nice Avalanche! I have a black 02
Thanks Matt, the wife bought that for herself for a retirement gift new in 07. Just turned 100k it's been well taken care of and spent the majority of its life in Florida. Thanks for watching !
Great vid, thanks for the tips. Gotta go weed wack now!
Most welcome Wayne, thanks, and thanks for watching..!
Great video - One problem I have with a similar model KOBALT 40V is that in re--stringing the string overlap and the feed string gets stuck during use. I have to open it up and fix it. Other than that , it is a great tool. No electric line and no gas engine to screw up!.
You might try a different style string if you haven’t already, and sometimes if you put less string in to start it helps. When you run against a post or chain link fence the string will wrap and pull tightly till it snaps meanwhile pulling the inner string together. When it just wares out from grass and other plants it shouldn’t do that often. Thanks for watching..!
@@meanderingyogi6562 what has happened a couple of times is that I find the string unable to pull out and I have to restring .
Gotcha.. still might want to try a different string on the next go around.. just for giggles..
Thanks man I did it how my grandad taught me and he didn’t have a clue of what he was doing 😂
Your very welcome, glad to help, and now maybe you can show him an easier way.. thanks for watching..!
I’ve discovered with my kobalt 40v self propelled mower , a 4ah lasts 10 minutes tops, needs 6ah
I’ve only used the 2.5 that came with the weed eater, and the 5.0 from the mower. My 2.5 would last 20 minutes at least. Sounds like the 4.0 is weak for some reason. I replaced a 5.0 with a 6.0 and wow it does make a difference. Thanks for watching..
Nice video. Would you happen to know how/if you can remove the bottom spool housing so you can install a newer style string head feeder?
I've not tried to change the head, but I'm almost certain you can put different ones on it. Thanks for watching Steve..!
I have a good supply of the next size up string left from my old gas string trimer. Could I possibly use it so as not to let it go to waste?
Sometimes you can move to another size up, depending on the type of string. If it fits through the hole it’ll work, it won’t hold as much, and the bump string may get stuck.. best of luck and thanks for watching..!
Thanks
You're most welcome, thanks for watching..!
@@meanderingyogi6562 your welcome. You made it really easy.
How long take the battery
Once you have the line wound up and you are putting it in the weed eater do you pull the line out of the little notches before you push the top fully on?
Yes 👍
@@meanderingyogi6562 thank you
Absolutely, thank you for watching..!
Your shout out video is up!
Thanks Tony.. That's a first, I appreciate it..!
Is there a way to convert these to a standard manual feed string hub?
I'm not certain, but I think someone does make a conversion head replacement..
escaped certain death thanks to your tutorial.
Lol, good to know.., thanks for watching..!
Much appreciated. We'll made content.
Thank you Kevin, I appreciate your taking time to watch and comment!
Can you use a bigger line than? 080
I believe you can go one size up, I’ve not tried it though. As long as it’s loose enough through the feed slots it’ll work, but you’ll have a less line fit in the hub. Best of luck, and thanks for watching..
👍
Thanks for watching..!
Yeah.......
I just can’t figure it out! unfortunately my eyes don’t work so I can’t see exactly what you’re doing. You gave a very good audio description but, without being able to match up what you’re talking about to what I’m feeling on the end of mine I am lost in the sauce. Thanks anyway, I hit the like button just because I will have to save this video for my wife to look at
Hopefully the wife can fill in the gaps, can't thank you enough for the comment and certainly appreciate you watching..!
