Great video, thank you. Very tight editing which most viewers appreciate. Too many well meaning KZfaqrs produce 15 minute videos when 5-6 minutes would suffice and hold everyone's attention.

I rescued one of these from the "free" shed in my local community...the cord was dangling out but everything moved freely. The recoil spring in the one I found seems intact but maybe just isn't strong enough. Thanks for your video!!

This is a great video.. I own one of these machines... It is a frustrating and underpowered machine.. It sure shouldn't be as complicated as it is to replace the pull cord.. I don't know how many pull cords I've replaced -- Many --10+ .. I'm generally very handy at least = I have all the right tools and understand stuff like weedeater repair.. The Toro weedeater that isn't too expensive comes with extra built in functional obsolescence.. I just wanted to replace the broken string - I didn't want to know all about the trivial innerworkings of the whole machine... Just the stuuupiiid pullcord...... Thanks

I used your video to take mt Troy built trimmer apart. I thought maybe the spring in mine was shot because when I pulled on the cord it did not start the trimmer. I bought the cowell kit for $35 because I really didn't know what to expect when I got inside. Both the new and old Cowell pull similar though the spring is different than the new one. Your instructions worked overall.

Here's a hint, remove the plug and insert some cord in there leaving a little bit hanging out, instead of risking breaking a fan blade.

Ive used mine about 10 times and and the spring mech broke. What a an inferior piece of equiptment. My solution is to trash it and, never buy anything craftsman again. Im going down to the Stilh Dealer and getting a supreme piece of machinery.

These machines are complete garbage. I would NEVER buy this crap BUT I have a deal that gets me free laundry for trade on repair work of all sorts. This brings one of these into my shop and I am tempted to buy a used, but quality built (NOT "BILT"!!) trimmer so I no longer have to work on this POS. Good video anyway-very good.

+howardtoob - I tend to agree with you. Since this video, the darn thing quit working for some other reason. I got a 40 V electric string trimmer, and I am very happy with it. I swear that thing is as strong as gas.

Good move. I did the cord today and it was a total PIA. Feeding the end of the rope into the recoil was so difficult and took me forever. I was so pissed off I really wanted to take the entire unit and smash it on the ground. Garbage
