Here is my channel wish list if you would like to show some support in purchasing some tools or spare parts, it is gratefully appreciated www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/13BO7QKGAZZV2/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_2?_encoding=UTF8&type=wishlist
Thanks Mick, I've had numerous strimmers over the years and the twin feed ones are always a pain to re-spool, as you said you really don't want to let go ! There's a Toro machine where to re-spool all you have to do is thread the line through the head to the centre position and then rotate the head and wind in the line - genius - why can't they all be that easy !
Been using my Titan to strim my allotment this afternoon......came home looking for info on how to replace the trimmer line.....and by magic this video pops up......Cheers Mick
Hmm, mine says "OFF->" and points anticlockwise (it is a ryobi much like the one you helped me re-fit a filter on)- and I can't get it off. I may need to drill it off and add a slot to remove it and find a replacement.
Amazing, I think that is it - I sort of drilled the old bumper cap bolt cover thing and ordered a new one online. I assume it was worn out inside, no idea why it wasn't coming off when the cap was on but it may have been because it had been put together with the spring between the casette and cover!! I had to put the twine on anticlockwise for my mower. You have helped me put new lines on this, and get this sorted and I suppose I had probably better tune it (it is revvy) and that is ALL thanks to you. So much appreciation for your channel. I have tried and tried to get help and had no luck and you have saved the tool with two videos!
I have a trimmer My dad bought over 40 years ago from Sears and still runs great It ran on leaded gas at that time. But one thing is the trimmer is very heavy compares to today's trimmers.
Hi Mick. Good vid. Could I suggest mentioning which way to wind it, as even I've refilled a head, and then had to unwind it as I put the cord in the wrong direction. 🤦♂ And Tina rocks! Hope you and Luke had a good time 😁
Mick I have a Qualcast strimmer with a very similar head. It very rarely springs out when I bump it on the ground. What I find is that the string tends to weld itself together and therefore doesn't push itself out. I find it a bit fidly and it doesn't lock in like you showed so that may be an issue I wasn't aware of. Good vid.
Oh okay just I do a search for a universal item? I did think about it but wasn't sure if I could but thanks for that.😊...oh it's got a right hand thread.
Which machine, as they are different depending upon maker. A Stihl FS 40 pull mech has 3 bolts to remove the cover, but then is it easy start, or ooph start, as they are different, then there are other cheap machines that require a complete strip down to get to the pull mech as its in front of the engine so it's harder to work on and a lot more involved.
Husqvarna strimmers are wound similarly but without needing to remove screw. Tina Turner? You’re dating this video. Must’ve been in “post production” for some time!

Brilliant wee machines. I run a handyman business and i could be using my titan strimmer all day.

👍👍👍 I'm giving you three thumbs up awesome video and I hope you have fun at your Tina Turner concert thank you for the video hi Riley boy
Genuinely useful, aside from my one simply won't unscrew, but at least I can be certain it goes clockwise!

Top man Mick my Ryobi strimmer is still going strong i keep giving it loads of hammer but it will not die 👍👍👍👍

Nice job
Well done mick, I'm to awkward handed to be polite about saying it, got the auto feed, jobs a goodun.
@@courtneyroy270 what brands fit a titan to make it easier
Noting the reverse thread and winding to go with the centrifuge effect.

@@JimF500 go to a main dealership they will sort you out
@@themowerman 🙏👍
Can you do a video, how to get in to a strimmer to change the recoil rope or if the recoil needs fixed.
Thanks Mick, Derek
