The trimmer is one of the essential lawn care tools in the garden. Therefore, it must always be correct. Sometimes you have to change certain elements of the device. For example, it is useful for gardeners to know how to wind the line around the trimmer.
So, in order to replace the main cutting element, you must first select it correctly. In principle, the instructions for the unit should indicate the diameter of the fishing line that should be used in it. The smallest value is 1.6mm and the largest is 3.2mm. The best option would be a fishing line with a thickness of 2 mm. In this case, you should pay attention to the power of the device.
If you have purchased the necessary cutting element, try to install it correctly. Before winding the fishing line on the trimmer, consider its cross section (square, round, with pointed edges). Also remember that you can only use fishing line for mowing grass.
So, in order to replace the thread, you need to disassemble the trimmer. There is nothing difficult in this. You just need to unscrew some fasteners and remove the cover under which the coil is located. We need to take it off. Wind the line on the trimmer spool verysimply. To do this, you will need about 5 meters of material, and you will need to mark the middle on it.
Now inside the reel you will find a slotted bobbin into which you need to insert the fishing line. After that, we begin to wind it in the direction indicated by the arrow on the body. Next, the bobbin is inserted back, and the ends of the thread are threaded through the holes on the sides of the spool.
Before winding the line on the trimmer, please note that the spool can consist of two parts. In this case, one part of the thread is wound on one side, and the second on the other. After that, you need to install the coil back and secure the cover. It should be noted that it may have a left-hand thread. This is done so that the lid cannot unscrew and come off the device during operation.
Before winding the line on the trimmer, you should decide on the system of its supply: automatic, semi-automatic or manual. The second option is the most optimal. Naturally, all work should be done very carefully and carefully so as not to injure your fingers. In addition, before changing the line in the trimmer, it is necessary to clean the device from grass residues, dust, dirt and other debris.
In principle, there is nothing complicated in doing this procedure. However, in the instructions for the device, it almost never signs, so most users have to guess for themselves how to make a replacement. The main thing is to follow the direction of winding, which is indicated by the arrows on the bobbin and spool. Naturally, one should not apply great effort to twist the device, so as not to break it. However, the fasteners must be strong so that the cover or coil does not fall off during operation. If you are not confident in your abilities, use the services of a knowledgeable person.
