Restring Spool for Black & Decker Trimmer / Edger
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2017
- Please watch my newer video that is shorter, better quality and I have the auto feed issue fixed: • Restring Black+Decker ...
In this video I show how to restring the disposable spool for my Black & Decker 18v trimmer/edger. This spool fits all these string trimmers: GH500, GH600, GH610, GH900, GH912, ST6600, ST7000, ST7700, CST1000, CST1200, CST2000, MTC220, MTE912, NST2018, NST1118, NST2118, LST220, LST300, LST400, LST420, LST136
Use the string I linked below and get the string that I've found works the best at auto feeding. You can even do a sloppy job at winding it and you don't need to let it sit for a day.

Thanks for the video. Does anyone know why the string would not feed automatically?
YES! I made a new video showing how to do it and not have an auto feed issue. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
.08 in look too thick to move. I think .065 is better. When I saw this string thickness is more than the original string that came with trimmer.
@@svenkat2006 exactly
Yes. The manual and spool coveres all say DO NOT use string larger than .065 or the line will not feed correctly. This is a great video showing what NOT to do. If you want better line try MaxiEDGE commercial .065.
That round string look stiff, maybe that cause the issue.. i run the 2.4mm twisted string without any problem, because its flexible..
I had a stroke a year and a half ago and the hardest adjustment for me is getting frustrated super easy. I end up wanting to throw something. To that end, I have taken up the habit of watching every available video about something new I have purchased to avoid as much frustration as possible. This was the only video on my new weedwhacker that I needed to watch. Thank you so much, you are like a God to me, I wish my doctors could do as much LOL!
Lol. I'm no god but all thanks to God for my RUclips. Glad I could help. You should watch the video where I convert mine to a Lithium battery.
I can also relate to your frustrating. I recently broke the engine off my gas weed eater by swinging it like a baseball bat against a tree because it wouldn't start. Don't always have time to deal with things not working. My time is very valuable. Got 2 kids and 1 more on the way.
@@becausestuffbreaks Well that speaks even better of you that with the challenges of your growing family still, you take the time to impart valuable info and instruction to others. I am a 63-year-old female determined not to allow a stroke prevent me from doing the tasks I still love to do. Hard work has always been rewarding for me. I thank you again and hope you will make more videos to help others with the necessary details so they can get on with life.
I hope you both are doing well, this little exchange was somewhat inspiring :)
Smart plan. I feel you on anger issues. I had severe mold toxin exposure in my previous house that effected my nervous system. I had a particular incident with my husband's gas powered weed eater. Needless to say the weed eater didn't survive. We got out of that house and slowly the anger went away. It's been a lot of work to get the mold out of my system.
Thank you for this video! I had problems with the autofeed as well. I restrung like you did and no problems since!
I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use ruclips.net/user/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.
Thanks. I've strung these weed eaters every spring and knew I was prob doing it wrong, though it worked, I'm glad to know how to do it right. Thanks for showing.
How were you doing it?
As a brand new homeowner with zero lawn care experience, this video was a life saver. Thank you!
Thanks! Just make sure you use the correct size string instead of the larger string like I did, or to make it easier you could just get the prestrung spools.
I was able to find and use the correct size, and everything worked swimmingly! Thank you!
You can buy pre strung spools but they are kind of expensive and don't last long if you have a big job..
I just watched your video. I hope this works.
I asked my Husband 2 weeks ago to do this, he didn't, so I'm doing it. Now I'm going in my yard to test it.
Let me know how it works. I used the correct size string last time and worked much better.
That’s whatsup, hopefully you’ve managed to subtlety shame his lazy ass with a sharp lookin’ lawn....every time he pulls up!
hey there :)
@@becausestuffbreaks so 1,6mm works better than 2,0? I bought 2,0 and it does not autofeed. After 20 times i gave up. Is the 2,0 the problem do you think?
Here's the new video I made that fixes all the auto feed issues. ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
Thank you for making this video. My mom came to me with an empty spool. Not sure why, but whatever. Thanks to you I refilled the spool with the correct tools.
Cool. You can also just buy prewrapped spools if you didn't know. Thanks for watching!
I been trying to restring my electric Black and Decker for the last hour and I have both size lines you have. Just gonna go with .065 for now cause not sure if I can make those holes as well as you. But thank you so much for sharing and helping me. Really appreciate it. Happy Holidays to you and your Ohana! God bless...
+Keone Kamalani thanks! Have a Merry Christmas!
I wasted half an hour trying to re fill the spool and your video solved my problem in a few minutes! Thank u!
+Cali4nia N0rthSide what was your problem? Did you put the same size string on? Let me know if you have any issues with the auto feeding.
Cali4nia N0rthSide sane
Enjoyed your video. I found it is best to stay with the original thickness 0.065". I made a video of an older design from b&d and found I needed to wind opposite direction of the arrow. You are right that the string must be wound tightly like the factory or it will not auto feed correctly.
BEST instructional video EVER! your clear and concise directions and your calm voice made it so easy for me to follow. I have severe hand arthritis so every movement really hurts. Watching your instructions helped me accomplish a painful task in minimal time. I’m looking forward to watching all your videos. Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching! You can also buy prewound spools if you want to avoid the pain.
So far the best video on this that I have found....you have a great way to show and talk about what you are doing and your voice is easy to listen to...I am now going to go watch the other shorter video you made about this...
Nice video! I almost gave up on my 0.08" line until I watched the correct way to feed the line unto the spool. Works fine.
Thank you so much for this! I restrung mine for the first time and it wasn't feeding. From you video, I learned that I wound it the wrong way. Working great now!
I made a better video after doing it a while and perfecting the process. I found a few things that made it feed better. I'll link it below.
ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
Great video! I ended up picking up a similar .080 weed eater string in a 100ft roll. Just restrung one of my spools and can't wait to go out and try it out!
Let me know how it works for you. Thanks for watching!
This was the most accurate video I watched to restring the spool. In the end, you say that you don't know why it is still not feeding properly. By watching a couple of other videos and then following your directions, the difference comes up at the very end. You mention locking the end of the string on the edge of the spool to prevent it from unwinding while it's inserted into the housing. That's mentioned in other videos and very necessary! But, right after the string is inserted through the final external hole and as the spool is seated into the housing, the end of the string should be released from the edge of the spool. Maybe that just didn't make it into the video. Mine fed perfectly following that procedure. I'm using the .065. Again, the video detail on attaching and winding the string was the best and I had no problems first wind! Thanks!
Right, the end of the string should be released from the edge of the spool.
It's 2022 and this really helped me. My dad passed in May and I really dreaded having to figure this out. I appreciate the way you taught this and I got it in the first try. ❤️
Sorry to hear about your dad. If you don't want to deal with wrapping it, you can buy rolls already wrapped. Here's a link to the sting I use that will fix all the auto feed issues: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Thanks for sharing, I am going to try this. I was very kinda pissed off a little at black and decker thinking I would have to spend 20 dollars buying new string when I can get 100 ft for 5 dollars. I will give this a try, really need to trim and edge my yard
Make sure to use the correct size string and not the size I used
I try this, just wonderful. Thanks for the video you explain it very well.
Thank u! Been trying to figure this out for my mom for awhile now
Justin, your honest teaching style was effective in re-stringing this edger. Thanks. I had trouble with the auto feed too for some mysterious reason (s).
Please watch my newest video, I'll link below. I have all the auto feeding issues figured out and explain how to do it right. ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
@@becausestuffbreaks one of your last steps was incorrect. You don't restring it through the other plastic cinch. The other hole and cinch is left for if the first hole and cinch gets too loose and stops holding the string. You even mention how after you do it your method, you have to manually pull the string through because it doesn't feed anymore. That's because after you wind it up you are just supposed to put through the final metal hole that feeds out and click it in. I actually wasted 2 spools on your method, the tension of threading it through the second plastic conch at the end made those areas ragged. It gave me the same problem where it wouldn't auto-feed. I had to watch other videos to realize you aren't supposed to have it feeding out of the backup plastic cinch.
If anybody sees my comment, please refer to other references because he messes up a step. With all respect and fairness, I had to point it out.
@@MinervaAlvarez-dx3jc can you time stamp what I messed up? I'm having a hard time understanding what you mean. I figured out the autofeed problem was the string size. Everything worked perfectly after I put the correct string in. I put a link in the description of what string I used to fix the auto feed problem and I made a new video explaining my error and linked that in the description as well.
Thank you. I have restrung before listening to you. This is the first time restringing has worked. I am so glad. I could hardly believe it.
Awesome! If you use the string I linked in the description, it will fix all the auto feed issues.
Thanks. I have a B&D but not that model and have been fighting rewrapping the spool for years. I read the supplied instructions several times to no avail. The rewrapping went the smoothest ever.
You're welcome. The link below is the string I use now and fixed all my auto feed issues: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut Commercial Grade Trimmer Line, Blue, Medium www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apanp_WNcIEGqeDYS9t
Enjoyed the video... Took my time restringing the spools. In the past I would do it in my garage..Hot, and I was tired. This time I did 6 on my couch in the AC watching golf and took my time. Ran the feed around the spool tight and did that 2x per spool. The real test will be when I go use it, hoping the auto feed work without any issues.
I switched to this string and it fixed all my problems: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Thanks for this helpful video! I also managed to find biodegradable line to thread the spool with, which is a bonus.
Sweet! Thanks for watching!
I was wondering about that. Plastic in the environment sucks.
Thanks for the video. The little lever inside the spool shroud came off and I cannot figure out which way it faces. Can you explain that little lever.
Mine did the same thing but I decided to take it out and put it back in with the arrow close to the hole I threaded the string through. Then it worked fine. Thanks for the video... I thought I was the only one who was having that problem.
Below I linked my new video showing how I fixed all the issues I had during the previous video. I also found a string that works best that I will link below. Good Luck and Thanks for Watching!

THANK YOU, everyone else's videos didn't help because my machine is different (and like yours).. so really appreaciated this
Awesome! Watch my video on how to convert this to a lithium battery. Makes it last a LOT longer.
This is EXACTLY what happened to me… 🎉
@@kikasantomingoyou should watch my updated video I'll link here. Buy and use the string I linked in the description for best at auto feeding. ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
I'm going to trying this on the weekend. The regular line breaks too fast with the type of grass I have here. Maybe a thicker line will work better for me. Thank you for an amazing video!
Awesome! Use the string I linked below. It lasts a very long time and it auto feeds perfectly. Maxpower 332265 Square Cut Commercial Grade Trimmer Line, Blue, Medium www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apanp_LWkJ3CgHka5fp
This helped a lot. I was having trouble restringing this thing, but you helped me figure out what was causing my problems. It was two things. First, that stupid little hole wasn't big enough to take the new string I got, which was a little thicker than the original. All this time, all I needed to do was make the hole a little bigger? Yep, I did what you did and it then worked fine. But what REALLY helped me was the second tip I picked up from your video: Must play death metal while working on this thing! So now, yeah... I iz a pro!
Lol, thanks for watching!
I have no idea what I'm doing wrong I am having an issue with it feeding too much constantly and wrapping itself around the Wacker after it becomes usually long enough to cut me first
Might just be the type of string or you spooled it backwards. Try this string. Fixed all my auto feed issues: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
It helped a great deal. Not quite same head spool etc but your instructions gave me the energy 2 think!!!! lol Gooo on friend
Thanks and thanks for watching!
I used the same .080 halfway full and the auto-feed worked perfectly. Thanks for sharing this.
That's good. Do you have a brand and model of string you used?
Justin Peters I used Craftsman Smart Advance Trimer Line 0.80 I had laying around. Not sure if you can still buy it since Sears is now gone.
Justin Peters just checked and you can buy it on Amazon. I used the 85940
Thanks for the info. I'll have to try it. I just bought a new brand and tried it today and LOVED IT! I think I'll make a review video on it. No auto feed issue and very durable. Here's the one I just bought: www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Justin Peters Awesome! Thanks
I use my drill, a large drillbit, gob some blue painters tape on and make the spool fit and somewhat center it. Then once you get it started use the drill to wind it on the spool. Super fast! It comes out of the bulk holder really fast too.
That's awesome! I think I'll try that.
Worked great for me. Thanks!
Great job! Thank you. I am going to try and restring mine now!
Please watch my newest video first. I'll link it below and I figured out all the auto feed problems. ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
Thanks for sharing. I have a spool of .096 but sounds like it will work. Save a lot of money and last longer. I subscribed. You have helped enough people to fill up 7.68 Georgia Domes. wow! Capacity well was 60K

great job, i subs'd. did wat u said, still having issues with auto feeding, i wound it tight, but i have 2 take cover off and manually do, do i hav to il some of the components or inspect them, strange?
Thank you.
My spool came undone? Was all twisted to shit in there. This really helped.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! This video helped me reuse my disposable Black and Decker whipper snipper spools and it even helped me save money on new Black and Decker whipper snipper spools for more than $20 for only 3 spools that have only 30ft of whipper snipper line! I bought a package of 0.065in whipper snipper line that has 300ft of whipper snipper line for only $15.99. I could refill my spool up to like 10-12 times depending on how much line you put on the spool, plus it’s really easy to do!
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much for making this video man lol
The music during the winding was killer !
Lol, thanks for watching.
Thank you! Lent my weedwhacker to neighbor who restrung it and it was all messed up. So going to give this a try! I have a jungle to cut through...😆
Make sure to watch my newest video on how to do it. I clear up all the issues I had.
thankyou i saved alot restringing i bought 200ft of .065 shakespeare balistic twist commercial grade trimmer line at tractor supply and so far it working great
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
I restrung and then the auto feed kept feeding more and more strings every few seconds. Could you tell me how to control the pace it feeds?
Yep. Just use the string I linked below and it will solve all your problems. Also helps to let the spool sit for a day after stringing to overcome some of the elastic memory in it. Let me know if that fixes it. Thanks for watching! www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_mz3GJefoAKzQx

+Israel Calderon awesome. Glad I could help.
+Israel Calderon try using the correct size string for the spool and let me know if you have any issues with it not auto feeding like I had.
Just spent a couple of hours trying to figure out feed issues with my B&D weed whacker. So frustrating. So "line feed" success of the weed whacker is impacted by the flexibility of the line. Who knew?! So if the manufacturers change the specs of the line itself, the performance of the weed whacker is impacted. I never would have guessed that I would have to let the line sit wound on the spool for a day before operating the machine. I wonder if that has always been the case. It would have been a long time before I figured it out. I've used weed whackers for years and never had much trouble until recently. I don't shop Amazon, so I hope I can find the line you are recommending elsewhere. Thanks for the tips. Very helpful. I don't know how we ever got along without RUclips.
Here's the string I recommend that fixed all my auto feed issues Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I guess this is cheaper? My b&d quit auto feeding so I bought a ryobi that’s similar. I wonder if I could do the same thing with their spool that comes with it? What ya think?
I bet you can. Just match the size of the string. After you string the spool, let it sit for a day so it holds in place and doesn't unwind too much when it auto feeds. Let me know how it goes.
Thanks for the tips. I was hoping you had a faster way to string it. It's quite tedious. If you don't get the rows level, I think this is why it stops continually and I have to remove the cap and reset the string. Yes. You can buy pre strung spools and move on smoothly but they are expensive compared to re stringing your own. Plus if you have a large job, they don't last long.
I used this string and it fixed all the problems. I didn't even need to make it in neet rows. Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Mine has a feed button and it isnt releasing line when i press the feed button. What am i doing wrong?
Ok, great vid but MY PROBLEM is that the actual black spool that you wrap the new spool onto is stuck on. How do I get that off? Thanks
Never had one get stuck so not sure how. Sorry.
Thanks for the video, every year I need a little reminder! :)
I made a better video. Here it is: ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
Thank you, i will try this.
Awesome! Let me know how it goes.

Thx for your help. I have a different model & my spool is black n decker & it has a groove on the inside that U slide the string into initially. It does not load from the top. That May make a difference.
You stick it into a hole in the top and then thread it down into the spool from a notch and that locks it. I show that in the video, right?
Thanks this helped me!
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
I used a thicker line on mine and I can’t get it to auto feed I have to put it up take the cap off and feed it through myself. Must be the line thickness
It might be.
The problem likely is the spool can't feed because it's too tight initially. Use less string next time.
Thanks man!
Thanks for watching!
My autofeed is doing the opposite. Just spits out line non stop..any suggestions?
Look inside the spool housing. See if that little switch/lever is there
I'm pretty mechanically inclined, Except for Installing String on Trimmers...smh..This helped a lot as i have the exact same trimmer. Thanks!
Thanks for watching. Just make sure to use the correct size and not oversized like I did. Auto feed works better.
Thank you so much I haven’t done this in years(I’m 82) appreciate the refresher course🥰
Thank you! I was ready to chuck the weed wacker!
Lol, you should watch my video on how to convert it to a lithium battery. It lasts a very long time on one battery.
Thanks so much for this... this is exactly what I was looking for, as mine (same brand as yours) didn’t come with any instructions! I appreciate it, Sir! 😎
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your time.
Thanks for watching!
Thanks bud👍
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Gracias por el video , fue de mucha ayuda para mí
When inserting the spool where is the black clutch go inward or outward in the cavity
Mine is outward. I took a picture of it and posted it on my MeWe public group. Free to join MeWe and here's the link to the group: mewe.com/join/shareyourtrade
It is helpful to 'paint' the arrows showing the direction to wind. I use red or orange fingernail polish. Thanks for the video, and suggestion for the line size and brand.
Good tip. Thanks for watching!
Great vid - I have issues with the auto feed as well, this was very helpful
Thanks. I recently used the correct string size and the autofeed worked good but seems to autofeed too much and I lose more string.
I needed the hole adjustment tip (despite what John Fuller says. LOL). The hardware nearest me only stocks thicker lines for gas trimmers. And the other one a little further away had for electric trimmers but they buy giant reels and pre-cut them in shorter lengths for sale. And the sales lady had no info on what thickness it actually was. So I had a hell of a time trying to thread the thing. A comparison between what the trimmer came with and what I got now doesn't seem too great - since I had a hell of a time trying to get out the previous bit too - haha.
Did you get it to work?
@@becausestuffbreaks I got it threaded - yes thanks. I had one of those small pointy scissors handy, I just stuck in one of the blades and rotated it with just a very little bit of pressure and it worked just fine. Time will tell if I get auto feed issues or not. Even if I do at least I will be able to continue using my trimmer!
Thanks for watching!
👍 Gracias!
Thanks. You gave me the answer of how to use multiple levels of the string. I was not sure if you could do that overlapping. I did keep with regular size and it works fine.
Awesome. I recently made another video of this using the correct sting and then letting it sit on the spool overnight to fix any auto feed issues. I linked to it at the end of this video.
Thanks man....
Should we play the same heavy metal band while stringing?
It's highly recommend, lol. Thanks for watching!
Thankyou
You're welcome. Thanks for watching.
My problem is mine auto feeds too fast, is it not tight enough?
Does it feed normal with a prewrapped spool? I noticed mine feeds too much when I use the correct size string. Might have to just keep trying different kinds of string till we find what works best.
Mine fed okay with the original spool, but when I went to re-wind it with replacement string (same diameter as original), it feeds like crazy, and throws little bits of string everywhere. The only thing I can do is stop when it does that (usually after 20 seconds) and turn the spool back a bit. Pretty useless. I may try winding the string in the "wrong" direction, or move up to another size. I also didn't wind it as tightly as Justin did, but I figured that it wouldn't make that big of a difference once the spool wasn't full, anyway?
Thanks for the great video.
How long should the line be?
No clue
I replaced the spool on my GH900 trimmer and the spool keeps unraveling every time I try and use it. I got it to work correctly for about 15 minutes and then it unraveled again. I even put in a new spool, hoping that might solve the problem. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
Maybe you put it in upside down or the locking mechanism for it isn't working.
Where do you buy the cartridges for Black & Decker trimmer 30000
Not sure what model that is, but this might work: amzn.to/3zs71UU
Okay I just tried the .080 Grass Gator and is working pretty well vs. the .065 string Black and Decker calls for of the same brand doesn't work, just feeds though fast. The Grass Gator is 3d and might weight less than the solid equivalent , or equal to .065 at .080. How ever that system works it must work off the weight of the line
Interesting. Thanks for sharing. I made a new video with new string and method that fixed my auto feed issue. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html

No trouble with string feeding with the heavier string?
The thicker string is the cause of the auto feed issues. I linked the string in the description that fixed all my auto feed issues.
Great vid. Thx for the tutorial.
I also made a better video of this that also explains how to fix the auto feed issue: ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html
Seems to me that the wound string couldn't be kept from unspooling. Gave up, found internet site that said DEFECT get another part so I hung it up.
Right, the string has to be reloaded so that it unspools easily, not, as shown here, with the end of the string forced into the slot in the spool. The wound string SHOULDN'T be kept from unspooling. Weird.
The string you are using is too big if enlarging the hole in the first step is necessary. Also, you didn't remove the end of the string from the slot to temporarily hold it from unraveling before inserting the disc into trimmer base. That, along with using a string too big keeps it from auto feeding.
Im having issues auto feeding with the manufacturers spools and recommended size its insane what donyou recommend? I was going to try the video suggestions
I got the auto feed issue fixed and made a new video explaining it all. I'll link it below. Thanks for watching! ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html

Thank you.

Very helpful. Thanks 😊
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
I don't want it coming out automatically. Went through a whole spool the first time I used the thing. Had to keep it from auto feeding and if I need more, I remove the head and ease some out.
I remade this video and linked it in the video at the end. What I found, to get it to autofeed correctly, is to use the correct size string, use 4 wraps around the spool, and let the spool sit for a day before using it.
Zacly what I do. The spool it came with autofed way too fast. Tried many hacks to avoid buying a new prewound or winding myself. Nothing worked.
Here's the new video and what I did to fix the auto feed issue when winding it myself. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/7mlbvxk3Pkk/видео.html

Just did the same procedure here in Costa Rica.
You're welcome. Use this string and it will fix all the auto feed issues: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Thanks dude..
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
Not only will using larger line cause feed issues but it can actually damage your equipment. If you want a better line solution switch to commercial grade trimmer line. I use MaxiEDGE .065. Try to avoid square lines as they can cause feed issues as well.
I use this string and it fixed all my problems and lasts a very long time: Maxpower 332265 Square Cut... www.amazon.com/dp/B001JQC476?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
What will happen if I didn't restring that way?
Do it and tell me.
Totally helped; thank you so much 👏😁
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching!
I do not understand why you didn't use the right size of string, .065", as the manual recommends, instead of .08". What's the point?
I just had that size around. Didn't feel like buying more. Cheap+Lazy=This
Thanks Saved the day.😊
Awesome! Thanks for watching!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Can't tell you how many times I've dropped it just as I've finished winding it! 😮
I know how you feel
