    Your model trimmer may be different but they usually work the same way. The model in this video is a Ryobi One PLUS+ 10" cordless. It uses .08" line.

    Adam,
    Thank you so very much for showing us how to remove the string reel. I had almost given up on it. Your excellent video camera work showed so very clearly how to remove it. I followed your directions exactly and was able to remove it with absolutely no trouble. After replacing the string, I immediately went outside and successfully weeded a rather difficult patch of grass. I have heretofore had someone else do it for me, but I found that I kind of enjoy doing it myself.
    Thank you so much.
    Kind Regards,
    Sandra
    P.S.
    I am an up-loader of Mario Lanza videos with over 11/2 million views. Your parents would remember him, he had an extremely beautiful tenor voice. Although he died in 1959, he still has oodles of fans around the world. He was esteemed by such famous singers as Frank Sinatra, Placido Domingo, Elvis Presley, et al.
    Thank you again for your help.

    Thank you very much for your very helpful video. I asked 3 neighbours to help me remove the empty reel housing. All twisted, turned, pulled on the thing and I thought they'd break it. I found your video on youtube and had the empty casing removed in seconds. Due to feeding wild birds, the birdseeds grew green stuff which is now 5 feet high and therefore need the weedwacker to trim it. Thanks again for posting your video online. Great for those like me who have 2 left hands.

    @yootoob4516 8 лет назад +9

    Thanks! I bought my trimmer used for a couple of bucks and hoped I would find easy instructions to replace the trimmer line. One tip: I tried to wind the cord too tight and put too much on the spool. It didn't save me time, just the opposite.
    Thanks for the helpful video!

    Oh my gosh ...I thought that this would be tough but it isn't at all. I have been hesitant to take a look on YT expecting it to be complex. No chance of that. Once I viewed the video, I saw that threading an old school sewing machine was probably a little more difficult. Piece of cake after looking at this instruction. Big thx!

    Thanks. I have been buying the pre-made spools, but it is expensive. It doesn't say how much is on the spool, so I can't get a real picture of how much I am saving when I rewind the spool myself. I am assuming I would be saving something, and the task of rewinding is not that complicated, so thanks to your video, I am off to Home Depot to buy the big roll of string. Thanks again.
