Hi guys. If you are a first timer and you need to replace the line on your edge trimmer but also got no instructions on how to do it then watch this video.
Finally found someone who provided the help i needed. Many of the other videos the spool had opening on it which the ends of the line is put into. Mine doesnt. Thank you very much
Thank you so much for this video, as a recently single girl I have to trim my edges and had the most difficult time figuring this out. You help so much. Thank you
Just like one of the previous comments, I watched a couple of other videos before finding this one and was getting increasingly confused. The technique is simple once you know how and this video makes it very clear what to do. Thanks.
Thanks so much for this video. Watch 3 others before I found this one. Yours is clear, quick and easy to follow and looks exactly like mine so there was no confusion and I did it with the video and was done at the end and very happy. Thanks so much. Was the perfect video and incredibly helpful 👌 👏
Wow, thanx a BILLION for this video.It was so frustrating to have something that I can't use. Not even the video that was send to me from the manufacturers/ distrubuters could assist me properly. All thanx to you, i am now looking forward to my lawn trimming
Thanks soooo much. I laughed so much at your comments, especially when your wire jumped loose.. I had the exact reaction.. I’ll be doing sides this weekend. Thanks soooo much!!!
I forgot the spring was missing and while I was weed earring slowly but surely it all came out and the end shot out lol. Thank you so much suck an easy demonstration will try it tomorrow!
Thanks for this. The other videos had holes in the spool, we needed to see yours with the slot. We haven't managed to get it on yet, it keeps pinging off, but we have the right instructions at least. Thanks 👍🏼
I know lots about the edge trimmers and weed eaters and lawnmowers and i got very very good with my knowledge about these powerful machines and i follow the general rules of thumb for the trimmer line diameter depending on the engine cc and wattage rating and the size of the motor and ja i hope to bring some back for if i start my lawn business job and I can then test them out randsnyers en grassnyers is lekker om te gebryk en ek ken baie van hulle
Hey thanks for this video. You just helped me out, i was in a pinch lol 😅 Was using someone else’s weed eater & didn’t know how to load line on this exact style of head. Your video was straight to the point & right on the money! 👍For that I THANK YOU!! Cheers my friend!!✌️
Thank you, you just saved my life🤣🤣🤣, I did it wrong and the spring flew out into the weeds and it took me hours to find it after I gave up on the whole thing, now let me go and re-string the whole thing again, hope to get it right this time🥰
At the back of the spindle are two holes 180 degrees opposite each other. These are retainer holes to prevent the gut from unrolling. Clip each end of the cut into these holes, feed it through the spinner head and give it a slight jerk to release the gut from the holes and complete the job.
Great video, thanks. Please also show a video of how you tap on the ground to extend the line. Currenly doing it manually despite the line being less than 3 metres. Thanks
Thanks for the video. I have been looking for this for a while and there are many different models but this is the same coil as the one I have. Even the website for the trimmer I have (Spear and Jackson) doesn't show you how to do this! I guess they want everyone to just but new reels already to use?
At the bottom of the spool there is two notches put the bottom line in it and the top line in the other then it's easier to put the lines through the holes now you clip the top on and pull the two lines they will release and you can start cutting
Ah I have worked it out. In the line holder channel there are two eyelets. Pass the line through one of these and then pull through until you have found the halfway length of your line. Then double the one side back and wind both together in the dirrection marked, taking care to keep it neat. Near the end hook each end into the two retaining notches. Then feed the free ends into the feeder holes on the head body, and reassemble the whole head. Then press the bump button and pull on the two lines until you hear them come out of the retainer notches and are now free to feed.
This is awesome. Thank you so much for making this vid. You should be the one getting paid for the trimmer, then you decide how much to give to the so-called manufacturers. Cheers👌
Aparently it is to hold the ends of the line while you put the spool back but I never used it. If you look way down in the comments someone does mention that. Glad to be of help.
For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG I didn't like the fact that they just kept cutting the edge of the lawn further and further from the rock lining the flower beds and leaving bare ground. And the grass was trimmed or scalped several feet around trees, etc. It was a constant battle with them so I told them to just mow and no trimming. I have Zoysia grass so it grows pretty slow. Obviously after a while it could use some trimming. I'm in my 80's so I can't do much of it myself.Finally I decided that if I could find a lightweight battery powered trimmer I might be able to do some light trimming. I decided to buy the LST201 20V trimmer. And it works great for my needs. I have back yard with about 150' of flower beds and several trees to be trimmed. I can lightly trim the whole yard with a single charge! The grass I trimmed was only a few inches high but the trimmer was more powerful than I expected.
Unfortunately whilst your video is informative to a point you are completely incorrect as you miss several most important fundamentals: 1. trimmer line is colour coded and that should be pointed out eg: orange coloured trimmer line for 1,8 mm or 2.0 mm for 1000 Watt Lawn Star weedeater (yellow for 1,2mm etc) 2. For that 1000 watt model you can load 8 meters but no more, loading 1 meter as you state is a great waste of time 3. and most importantly you should clip in the lines into slots temporally on the bottom flange, load the spool and then pull the two protruding lines to release them rather than fiddling around extensively as you show. Or watch the inferior quality Lawn Star that has no sound or commentary: th-cam.com/video/B8kVG69UqXs/w-d-xo.html
Good day David. 1st of all thank you for the extra info. As you can see this video is 4 years old. When I made this I did not know anything about the trimmer. I do not use other color lines as they mean nothing to me. The orange line came with the trimmer and there for I use that. I also do not put more than 3M line on the spool as longer line melts into the roll and does not extend then. As long as my video helped out other new and first time users I will consider this video a success. But thanks again for the info. Kind regards
Haha wat I found is that if you put up too much line it gets hot and they melt together prwventing them from coming out. I put up about 3m of line devided by 2. So 1.5 per side.
excellent video...had a laugh too when the string popped loose too😂
Finally found someone who provided the help i needed. Many of the other videos the spool had opening on it which the ends of the line is put into. Mine doesnt. Thank you very much
Mine too...really grateful.
Oh crap now I've got no excuses .....thank you so much
Thank you so much for this video, as a recently single girl I have to trim my edges and had the most difficult time figuring this out. You help so much. Thank you
I have been struggling with this for way longer than i would care to admit. You are a freaking champ! Thank you so much for this!
This is the best instruction video on this subject. Thank you for producing it😄
Just like one of the previous comments, I watched a couple of other videos before finding this one and was getting increasingly confused. The technique is simple once you know how and this video makes it very clear what to do. Thanks.
No ways man! Where have you been all of my (gardening) life?! Thanks for this incredibly helpful video.

Thanks so much for the clear concise video! I swear, every year I have to re-learn how to do this. Worked like a charm!
My pleasure.
Finally, somebody who can help. Struggled for like almost a year. Thank you for the help.
Wow, thanx a BILLION for this video.It was so frustrating to have something that I can't use.

All thanx to you, i am now looking forward to my lawn trimming
This video is a lifesaver for me. Thank you!
Thanks soooo much. I laughed so much at your comments, especially when your wire jumped loose.. I had the exact reaction.. I’ll be doing sides this weekend. Thanks soooo much!!!
Thank you 😊 so helpful as a first time user. Greetings from South Africa
I forgot the spring was missing and while I was weed earring slowly but surely it all came out and the end shot out lol. Thank you so much suck an easy demonstration will try it tomorrow!
Thanks man, mine was different but got a new one which is like yours!
My friend you are a life saver, God bless.
Finally I get to know how to reload the gut, thanks for coming to my rescue
Thanks for this. The other videos had holes in the spool, we needed to see yours with the slot. We haven't managed to get it on yet, it keeps pinging off, but we have the right instructions at least. Thanks 👍🏼
For South Africans by a South African, thank you so much,
Thank you for this! I was clueless
Thanks for this. I nearly gave up and through my weed eater in the trash!
I know lots about the edge trimmers and weed eaters and lawnmowers and i got very very good with my knowledge about these powerful machines and i follow the general rules of thumb for the trimmer line diameter depending on the engine cc and wattage rating and the size of the motor and ja i hope to bring some back for if i start my lawn business job and I can then test them out randsnyers en grassnyers is lekker om te gebryk en ek ken baie van hulle

Thank you so much for the clear demo. A real help.

Thanks you. Me and my wife were struggling. Now I'm gonna go outside and act like I know everything...😆😆

Dankie baie. Het my gat afgesukkel

Oh ok. I actualy tap it while it is running. Great idea. Thanks.
The requested video is up. I don't know if you had seen it yet.
Hey man,, cool video, but on the spindle there are notches you can use to hold the line in place when re seating the head
Thanks dude! Such a frustration to struggle at something stupid like winding the gut and then having to redo it again when it doesnt work right.
Thanks, mate, It works!
😂😂😂😂The f bomb when the gut slips got me
great video, very helpful thanks
Thanks alot. Now I realise I was doing it wrong all along.
Thanks for the video. I have been looking for this for a while and there are many different models but this is the same coil as the one I have. Even the website for the trimmer I have (Spear and Jackson) doesn't show you how to do this! I guess they want everyone to just but new reels already to use?
Lol I guess so. The manuals are good for nothing. Glad I could help
Thank you so much. This actually helped 🙏
My pleasure.
At the bottom of the spool there is two notches put the bottom line in it and the top line in the other then it's easier to put the lines through the holes now you clip the top on and pull the two lines they will release and you can start cutting

Much help thanks 🇿🇦🙌

Nice video, much better than the Ryobi video. Unfortunately my spoil doesn't have the splitter in thhe middle, so still kind of stuck

dankie Jan, het gestoei en moed op gegee nou weet ek!
Jy gaan lag maar my Ma het my gewys hoe om dit te doen want my Pa kon dit ook nie reg kry nie.
Thanks from Nev.
thank you your video helped super doeper
Dankie mnr vir die hulp
Followed instructions to the T. Will comment later if it worked or not
Dankie Meneer. 👌👌👍🏻
If you click to lose ends into the little slots it won’t come undone then pull hard to get them back inline
Brilliant! Thanks
Now its a f*ck up.. Learned something and had a laugh.But seriously thank you for the video..What are the holes and slits on the spool for ?🤔
Aparently it is to hold the ends of the line while you put the spool back but I never used it. If you look way down in the comments someone does mention that. Glad to be of help.
Dankie vir die video!
Thank you Thank you Thank Yoooooou!!!!!
My pleasure
Thank you so much bro wow
I do it in the same way but mostly still a struggle when trying to feed the line by tapping on the ground. The line tightens too much and won't feed.
Try making it a 3m line. If it is too long then it gets stuck.

I'm winding in direction of arrows and it never taps out properly. I always have to pull out manually. Designer needs to be sued for torment.

Never tried it before. With all the dust it might make it worse.
