Finally the info I needed! Thank you. Those Craftsman 3-packs are $26 at Ace Hdwe! Seems ridiculous to me when you ought to be able to rewind them yourself. Now do they have to be so precisely rewound?

What is the maximum with of the string which can be applied? On the product description it says 2mm maximum, if ghats so I’m not really sure if this can handle heavy grass.

I fought with this weedeater over and over again. I happened to see your video and I went out and had it done in 10 minutes. Thanks so much for sharing.

I had to use a pipe wrench and big channel lock pliers to unlock mine. I'm going to try your method next time. 😊

Very helpful information. Better than the manual. Have to replace my cord for the first time since purchasing years ago. Thanks for making this.

best tip I've learned all day, THANK YOU🙌

Thank you for a great video. You could also use a grip strap wrench like those used to unscrew engine oil filters.

Thanks a lot, very useful for me also!

I have to watch this video every time I need to re-string.. watched it like 4x already.

What if you don't have a drill. The maintenance in the Apt complex won't do it ! I guess just use draino or bleach !

Thanks dude!!

Thank you and go birds !!

Really helpful, thank you

This does not have to happen. Mine was brand new and used only a couple of times when this happened. It's obviously a major design flaw. Thanks for the video!

nice and concise. thank you for not adding fluff

Mine doesnt give more length when i put the cap on the ground while rotating. Any idea?

Brilliant 😂 took me $0.30 to fix mine

Totally worked! So easy! Thank you!

Thank you! I could NOT get the top off! Saw how you used the screwdriver!! Snip snap! Thanks again!

Great guide. Just bought the Brushless trimmer with .080 string and it works great. Loving the V20 line of tools!!

THANK YOU! Brand new Ryobi trimmer was locked solid. Followed your instructions, and problem was fixed in minutes…….😊

This fixed my mower. I couldn’t get the 1/2 bolt out. With the 9/16 out I was able to rotate the top plate, that exposed the grove that was packed with dirt. With a long flat screwdriver I cleaned everything I could get to. It helped to turn the steering to the right that exposed more of the groove.

Omg I finally read my instructions, I have a smart loader so I have a handle to turn. Thank you for help, I have easier model lol

Why is this necessary? I have the same exact head and you can load fresh string without taking it apart. I’ve had mine about 3 years and never had to take it apart and the bump function always works.

I had drain flys living within the walls of my shower door. They don’t just stay in the drain

Worked great. And fixed for under $20. instead of plumber for $180. minimum call price plus (marked-up) parts.

Thank you dad.

The kobalt 80v is a beast

This helped BIG time!! Thanks for posting!!

You didn't show us, how to open the head to remove the old string. I never saw your link. I see no way that the head just opens up. If this was my trimmer, I would have already returned it.

there are more than one craftsman V20 string trimmer and that is not the one I have

not that freaking essy

Thank you

What is the purpose of the shut off valve that runs from filter into the pool?

When you complete the winding the string and keeping it tight, when do you release the string? It unwinds itself when you put the cap on?

❤ good video😊

Very interesting test. Are you up for a collaboration to also talk about gasoline outdoor power equipment? Hipa supplies high quality affordable parts for DIY repairers and maybe we could collaborate to help the novices to get their equipment repaired by themselves easier? You get the knowledge of small engine repair and hipa gets the good quality parts. I'm sure this collaboration can help lots of DIY repairers.

Milwaukee, Makita?? MIA.

Just what I needed, quick and easy instruction!

Thanks so much for the video!!! I have a Craftsman T110 and it's been a fixer upper since day 1, but my brother gave it to me for free, so I really can't complain. It started not turning left the last time I mowed and I also broke the PTO cable, so it has been sitting while I waited for the new cable to be delivered. Got it installed today and figured I'd check KZfaq for any solutions to the turning problem. Followed your steps and sure enough the channel was packed with hard gunk. Cleaned everything and reinstalled everything and BAM!! It now turns better than ever!!! As a 45yo woman who doesn't have anyone to help me, I was able to do both the PTO cable and the steering gears myself in under 4 hours!!! (On a gravel driveway, no shade, 100 degrees and humid here in GA, and frequent water breaks 🙋🏼‍♀️🥵) I can't express how happy I am to you !!!!!😁😁😁

It may open that easily when it’s brand new. But after it’s been used to a three times, it’s almost impossible to open. I’m not a small man and I am straining and I still can’t get it to budge.

Well shit! And here I thought I was gonna have to put my mower up on blocks.

Only 1 month old and i am unable to take the head apart to restring. Your video was good but you had already taken it apart. Once i can actually open it i will do your suggestions. Please help!

Good review! I've had one of these for several years and my teenage stepson beat the snot out of it, so it's time to get a replacement. The grass guard is gone and the line feed doesn't work, but it still cuts the weeds! I paid $100 when I got it, but they're down to just $40 now. Might have to buy two! One thing about these Hyper Tough batteries is that the service life is awesome! I have a chainsaw, pole saw, leaf blower and the trimmer and interchange the batteries. The original batteries are over 5 years old and still charge normally and hold charge for a long time.

Wow took less than 15 seconds 😅. Thanks you saved me hours…

My husband says that that’s not how it works. Been suffering for almost two year.s. I even have skin and hair myaisis now and he literally insists on ignoring the problem and NOT addressing it. He’s rather go through a divorce than deal with it and we have FOUR young children living in this 4,600 sq ft house of HELL & HORRER now. I’m living my worst nightmare and with all of the flies (in all stages) sores/abscesses , losing the vision in my left eye, he STILL IGNORES IT AND DENIES IT. how can I get help for my family??

That was sick thx. Just bought a used seatbelt and I'm 1000% sure it's the drivers but it was facing the wrong way! Fixed now!

Thx

My wife thinks I’m a magician, I’m going to let her think that for a little while.

How to unload the string?
