You should mention that the trimming line can be advanced manually by pressing on the line release button on the side of the spool and pulling on the line to bring it further out of the housing when it wears down.
Thanks for the video. I just got my trimmer last month and ran it out of string yesterday and didn't have any clue how to respool it, and now, thanks to you, I do.
Amazing!!! Thank you so much!!! I really needed this help...I've had my weed eater for over a year and after my thread ran out I put it in storage for about 8 months or longer because I could not figure out how to change my spool. Thanks so much. Your instructions were very helpful...🖒
Thank you for this. I was having the hardest time figuring this out. Someone had even shown me the wrong way so it was just not working. This was super helpful.
Thank you. My dad just bought one of these and can't figure out how to use it. If I can talk him though getting to this vid, it will keep me from driving several hours to show him.
Bro. Thank you for doing this video. I’ve been putting off weeding my lawn for 3 weeks due to lack of knowledge of changing the line. I have i little different one has two strings but I just used your instructions and motions. Thaaaaaaasassanks. Wife is gonna come home to a nice yard. Subbing
Man that makes me feel good to know it helped ya. Thank you so much for the feedback. 👍😁 I hope you have a great rest of the weekend and a great week ahead.
Vans World ya I was happy. Af. My wife was getting on me every day. Every week. Then I frickin did it and she was like meh. That’s ok. All men go through this I think. Just like how men don’t notice what women want. Sorry for that therapy session. Let’s continue to be men. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Vans World lol. Boy ooh boy. I’ve been married for 20. But seriously we could not be where we are without these wonderful wife’s and mommas. The man might be the head of the house but the women will always be the neck
Thank you so much!! I just bought a weed eater and have never owned one and well the instructions were horrible and all the videos I watched the men just assumed the viewer knew a lot more than this viewer did! I was so frustrated and then I found your video and you are awesome!!!!!!
Hi there I'm a single woman and I bought this trimmer I've had for six months and couldn't seem to get it to do right until you showed this video and explain to me what I was doing wrong as it certainly helps to follow instructions thank you for the all the great information
Clean, precise and informative. Your video is the only one that showed all the info and close ups. I didn't know where to put the string into on this model, others have a round hole. Your video also stated how the string automatically comes out. Thank you!
Thank you so much trying I am trying to clean up after a fire destroyed my home, 1 year, Hurricane Ida hits no internet services except for our phone I left my instructions at my previous home destroyed by the the storm, I could find my instructions but it would involve traveling through muck and other things! Bless your heart sincerely!
It was my pleasure and sorry to hear about your home. Hey have you looked at jerky subscriptions? I just subscribed to one that sends different jerky from all over the USA to try. Click this link to check it out. bit.ly/3p8XCZk Thank You for your comment and for watching
Thank you Van!! Come home from a long work week and I strung the weeder wrong! I told the wife someone has to have a video out there for dummies like me and bam..theres Van thank you Sr.👍👍
Thank you! I was trying to pull the whole round part off. I got a bunch of wire stuck inside the spool and didn't know if that's why it wouldn't come off. Hopefully my weed eater isn't broken.
Whelp... This video was only a partial help cuz my spool looks different then this guyz... Mine has a double string coming out so I guess it ain't put together like he did... I get the jiss of it cuz of this video thO now I get to keep searching more videos for my weed eater

Thanks so much for this video! Saved me a lot of time when replacing my weed eater cord. Also, I noticed your Mona Lisa portrait about 5 minutes in to the video and I died laughing hahahhahahaha
Thank you for this video!! Is there a replacement for the cap you took off in the beginning? If so what is it called or how would I search for it? Mine broke!
Good luck. It sounds to me like it may be wound up in the wrong direction if it keeps breaking and not feeding. But I’m my experience it could possibly be wrapped too tight or not tight enough. Just put adequate tension when winding it up.
The reverse the arrow is going?? Is this why im running thru line fast? Forget what i just said. Lol, the direction of the arrow, im good. I bought weed warrior line instead for my hyper tough. I get more line too at .08 instead of .065.
Nice video. Somehow my new hyper tough is tangling the string deep underneath the spool and wrapping around so I have to keep stopping, unwrapping it. Any tips because it cuts good once I’m able to use it a while so I hate to return it
The curl is pretty common. One thing I’d like to suggest is to be sure the string is wrapped on the spool in the correct direction. And to wrap it smoothly like a spool of thread is wrapped smoothly. And keep it as tight as you can when installing the spool into the head.
Perhaps one of those echo trimmer heads will help with the curled line tangling? Also seems like trimming pattern of side to side back and forth might prevent the curling some rather than staying in one spot too long
This trimmer takes the small line which will not knock down grass as well as a bigger line. You can find a bigger trimmer that will allow you to replace the string head with better attachments. There is a new product on the market called indestructible weed eater head. I want to get one and review it. My brother has one and loves it. No more string to worry with. 👍😁
That dude from Indiana keeps interrupting your videos. HAHA!! I seen those weed eaters in Walmart. I ended up getting a Hyper Tough gas weed eater. I got big tough weeds around my place. Needed a little more power.
I still don’t know who that guy is lol. Your right. This weed eater isn’t very powerful. But for a managed yard it works great. Thanks for the heads up on the gas powered one. That way I don’t waste money on one lol. 👍😁
Get video...how do you untangle the line when it jumped off track and has frozen the ability to turn...it is under neat the compartment where the line was?
@vans world so Question right in the beginning at 1:42 when sticking the string in the hole to begin what is it hooking onto to stay in the hole and stay attached?
I appreciate you and your support brother. I think about you all the time and the visit you made here in Georgia. I still need to mail you your swim trunks and news paper to you. 😂 I’m a slacker haha. 👍😁
Love the intro help. That was very entertaining. 👍 Can you do us a video showing how to change batteries in a double headed 8” BR549 will you? 😆 Love you Man 😂 Great helping others out video. I always hated fooling with the string myself.
I quit reviewing anything that has to do with the BR549. It has a horrible smell when operating it. I hope you understand. Thanks for the comment though and as always thanks for watching 😂
Thanks! I followed your instructions and it worked great for a few mins and then the line gets tangled underneath. I’ve untangled and reloaded several times. Any clue what I’m doing wrong?
Is it possible to change the head out on these? I bought a part that has plastic blades to cut down pretty tough weeds in my yard. But I can't tell if the head comes off this thing in order to switch it out.
Can you change the head on this for the push-n-load 3 blade head? I bought one because it said you could put it on the hyper tough. But can’t find how I am to change this out…. Help please?? Thank you
I've just bought a string for "Ryobi" for my "Hyper". Seems to be rather tough and the trimmer doesn't work now. It starts but stops right away. Should I get a specific string for it ?
I have a piece of wire that i ran over stuck up underneath where the spool goes so I need to remove the entire head piece and can't figure out how. The wire is stuck I'm between where the black meets the red. Any ideas?
Hello my string keeps getting stuck . It’s not empty .. I pull it out .. then when I press the buttons the string shortens . ( sorry tried to explain the best I could ) I will definitely try to re wine

Pretty good little, lightweight weed eaters actually.
Lost my dad at 14...super thankful to have this video.
Sorry for your loss. Glad I could help ya 😁
This video is exactly what I needed. Not too slow, not too brief, with step by step instructions. I just subscribed, and liked.
You should mention that the trimming line can be advanced manually by pressing on the line release button on the side of the spool and pulling on the line to bring it further out of the housing when it wears down.
What dies the line release button look like? I don't see one.
Does*
@@spiracle412 do you know how to yet?
How do i keep the line out keeps getting sucked in... not advanced as i cut
Thanks for the video. I just got my trimmer last month and ran it out of string yesterday and didn't have any clue how to respool it, and now, thanks to you, I do.

Great video! Had to fix this for my mom, and I had no idea how to get the string out! Thanks!
You can also advance string by pushing the little button under the 2 releases with arrows on them and it will click the string out manually
Forget advancing the string how do i keep the string from getting sucked back in tge hole
Thank you for actually showing what the video title claims to. 5th try is the charm! Thank you thank you

👍😁 my pleasure. Thanks for the comment and for watching.

Thank you so much you saved my sanity!
Thank you! This was exactly what I needed to know.

👍👍 that reminds me i neednto service and check over weed eater... hope youve been havin good weekwnd bud
It’s been pretty good except for being tied to the new iMac lol. Trying to switch my files over from windows to Mac. Not fun haha
Thank you!!! Could not get the cap off! Can now! 🙂
Awesome
Just what I needed. Thanks
Thanks Dude! Big help!
No problem. Have a good one 👍😁
Thanks! I'm going to try again!
Good luck. It sounds to me like it may be wound up in the wrong direction if it keeps breaking and not feeding. But I’m my experience it could possibly be wrapped too tight or not tight enough. Just put adequate tension when winding it up.
Good how to Van!
Thanks Papa. This video is doing pretty good at helping people. 👍😁

It’s possible the string gets too long. There should be a blade on the string guard to cut the line. This is just one possible solution.
The curl is pretty common. One thing I’d like to suggest is to be sure the string is wrapped on the spool in the correct direction. And to wrap it smoothly like a spool of thread is wrapped smoothly. And keep it as tight as you can when installing the spool into the head.
Perhaps one of those echo trimmer heads will help with the curled line tangling? Also seems like trimming pattern of side to side back and forth might prevent the curling some rather than staying in one spot too long
Which option are you liking the most Vans World the pattern of weed trimming or the echo head lol
Both seem like great options 😉
Nothing can make me cuss quicker than a weed eater or a lawn mower. LOL
Man me too. Especially when the string keeps getting stuck together inside
Awesome!! Took me a minute to find something showing me, though. i wonder if there's better, sharper string i can buy?

Man, This was great. Thanks
Great review! Just got one of these.
Thanks. It did the job pretty well. I sold it this year and upgraded to a 40v ryobi weed-eater and leaf blower.
@vans world so Question right in the beginning at 1:42 when sticking the string in the hole to begin what is it hooking onto to stay in the hole and stay attached?
Great How To And Thanks For Sharing My Friend!

I thought I was the ONLY one with this issue/😶
Thankyou so much! You are so calm!😀
Your welcome and thanks. 👍😁
THIS IS PERFECT! Thank you :)
How do you remove the actual spool holder? I have some weed and grass that got caught underneath and causing it to not turn freely.
Is it possible to change the head out on these? I bought a part that has plastic blades to cut down pretty tough weeds in my yard. But I can't tell if the head comes off this thing in order to switch it out.
Unfortunately the head can’t be removed on this weed eater
Thanks for the video.u helped me out alot💯
Thank you so much for this! I'm a "strong independent woman" and couldn't figure it out 😂
Thank you for your time
No problem. 😁👍 have a great week
So you have to rewind every spool even if it's fresh out of package?
No
Can you change the head on this for the push-n-load 3 blade head? I bought one because it said you could put it on the hyper tough. But can’t find how I am to change this out…. Help please?? Thank you
The head is not removable
Thanks I think I will subscribe Good Job!
Thank you
Thank you that was very helpful
Thorough stuff ... big thanks
😁👍 I appreciate you
Can you buy a roll of replacement thread so I can thread my own rolls? If so what size and brand do I get?
Thank you
Thank you so much!
👍😁
Can you use a stronger string than 0.065?
I've just bought a string for "Ryobi" for my "Hyper". Seems to be rather tough and the trimmer doesn't work now. It starts but stops right away. Should I get a specific string for it ?
I'm not sure I had to see it. See what's going on with yours? It'd be hard for me to guess I'm sorry I couldn't help.
@@VansWorld Turned out it was a battery.
I have a question 🙋♀️ mine keeps falling I got the yellow rope and I did it how u said and it eats it back in how can I stop
That’s usually from being wrapped backwards (wrong direction)
Very informative
Thank you for this! ;)
😁👍
I have a piece of wire that i ran over stuck up underneath where the spool goes so I need to remove the entire head piece and can't figure out how. The wire is stuck I'm between where the black meets the red. Any ideas?
Hello my string keeps getting stuck . It’s not empty .. I pull it out .. then when I press the buttons the string shortens . ( sorry tried to explain the best I could ) I will definitely try to re wine
I think I bought the wrong string. It’s red and it’s Hyper Tough 0.080 inch Trimmer Line. Can this string be used on this weed eater?
