If your line is coiled and won’t feed through completely because of deflection, put a coffee stirrer straw through the head and feed the line through that. Remove the straw once the head is threaded and store it with your supply of string.

Thank you for this video. I didn't read the manual but I did follow the instructions on another youtube video. That video showed taking the head apart and he actually threaded it on backward. (though the comments said to do it the other way) That is how I was doing it until I found this awesome video. It is sooooo much easier than taking the thing apart.

You can take it apart if there is a piece of string caught in the head or if you want to clean it. But 95% of the time just reload the string! Thanks!

I went on Amazon to review my order and the head that was supposed to come with it is the one you originally took off yours. IDK it has worked fine for me for a year, will see how it preforms after I re-string it. 👍🏻👍🏻

Hello, I don't like bumping the head to feed the line, it leaves marks on the lawn too so I've found, same as my 128ld Husqvarna, is to squeeze the cap with one or two thumbs and pull the required line through with my folded finger, same other side .Works a treat and dead easy .Good luck Folks 😊

Some newer 20 volt tool might sense if a 60 volt battery is installed and are marketed and sold with a 60 volt battery (sometimes). Just checked and the 20 v battery is not “keyed” to fit into the 60 v trimmer!

when you say "cleaned" did you remove the head or just get what you could see? if you didnt remove the head there can/will be grass all wrapped around the shaft between the head and the "spacer" for lack of a better term. this will prevent the head from depressing. like in his video, you need to put a screw driver in the guards hole and the locking hole on the shaft. then turn the head clockwise. once its off the spacer and head will separate and you can remove the grass. this is the only way to remove the grass. and as far as i know you cant take the head apart like you would a typical weed wacker
