    Thank you!!! I've been disassembling the cartridge then winding it on by hand for a couple of years lol. Today I was angry enough to do a google search and I've never been so happy to be proven wrong!!

    Thanks for this, we just bought this model from the local stihl shop and the instructions that came with it didn't even explain this. The instructions was telling me that I had to take the head off...

    Fantastic thanks - I inherited my father's FS 45 and did not know how to change the line. It still starts and runs great, so this has really helped.

    excellent video with clear instructions with good lighting. The only deduction is the music was a bit loud.. maybe just at the start and then when he gives instructions no music at all. Would be better for hearing impared people as well. Thanks so much helped me load this thing.

    Keeping the nylon moist will help it stay stronger. When the nylon is dry it is it becomes brittle and breaks easy.

The local hardware store sells aftermarket lines. What size do I get I've thrown all my old packaging away? Thanks

    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 th-cam.com/users/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.

    If you turn up the music just a bit more you'll be able to completely drown out the narrator instead of only partially accomplishing that. I assume that's the goal.
