Good and straight to the point. That knock at the start had me looking around to see who the hell was knocking on the wall! lol

[@voidisyinyangvoidisyinyang885]

Wow just removed the Greenworks trimmer head that was supposedly not removable! Using your method! Awesome. Now I just need to see if I can fit on one of those replacement universal heads. thanks

[@richardhinckley158]

Exactly what I needed to see.

[@gandisiregar1158]

Thank you from Indonesia 🇲🇨👍👍

[@princeghosh774]

Thank you for this video. I dont know after how many searches I found what I needed. I had to take out the spool housing since s wire got entangled in it when I was using the trimmer. And it happened on the first day of use. Thanks for this video! Really really helpful.

[@titoadityawarman]

This is what I have been searching during last 2 months on youtube😂, greets from Bali😊 thanks a lot

[@FIXTechGuides]

Glad you were able to find us!

[@binovc69]

I've done this job twice now. The spool housing must be a weak point, otherwise is a good machine. By the way it is totally unnecessary (and a lot more work) to dismantle the motor housing. I was easily able to align the shaft to the gear with a little "finessing" from below. I also added some white lithium grease to the spool housing shaft - needed or not, I don't know... The video was too late for me, but it's good that you made it.

[@docjody8624]

Video super helpful: watched it step-by-step while DIY'ing new Spool Housing. Bought GH3000 Weed Eater by B+D in 2015, now it's working like new again. Great job!

[@U2BER2012]

You make it look so easy. Ty for the tutorial!

[@stephaniebravo7773]

Thank you so much for your video! Very informative, it looks easy, but I don’t know if I’m going to be able to do it myself!

[@AndyVinyl1]

Excellent video, simple direct and to the point, even I was able to follow it and have just replaced the spool housing!!🙂

[@FIXTechGuides]

Great to hear!

[@user-nm9eb9yo6f]

Thanks for the video I wasn't even sure I could replace the spool housing. Looks easy enough

[@d.q.nmusicrecords]

thanks much. i was really worried how my weed stool was dropping out but i now see why big help thanks man

[@jillynngarcia5214]

Thank you!! This was exactly what I needed!

[@FIXTechGuides]

Glad it was helpful!

[@actenoir4413]

Bro thanks, it's hard to find video for this model, I was looking for this since a loooong long Time now it's fixed

[@marcdeherdt5658]

Thank you for this video.

[@ValerieKennedy-jp3vq]

I bought a wire brush wheel to use on my weed eater and it is a black and decker weed eater. But I don't know how to attach it or if it can be attached. my yard is like a jungle. I am 71 years old and I need a strong weed eater to cut down the small trees, vines and the rest of the jungle down. does anyone know how I can put the wire brush wheel on my weed eater.

[@FixItYerself]

what about an older gx1100 with a wobbly shaft? I can't get the cable to unscrew.

[@adolfceazer4711]

Thank You

[@tipsandtricks6071]

Perfect 💯

[@donnaten2]

can you tell me how to get the spool out of the cap. My line ran out, need to replace the spool but can't remove it from the cap.

[@mhnam9140]

My spool housing's plastic part was separated from the metal shaft. Your video (3:50) shows you are holding the plastic part to undo the flexible cable. How can I remove the flexible cable with the plastic part not intact? Do I need some special tool?

[@annmaes7550]

So my hubby got a wire caught under the housing. Is this the best way to get the wire out from under the housing??

[@U2BER2012]

I had to use 2 wrenches to unscrew the cable, because my spool housing was broken and separated from the cable.

[@abbyrice40]

I have a 40v cordless black and decker trimmer. The spool housing is really loose from its base. Can I follow these same instructions to tighten or repair it?

[@ggammel]

YIKES! MUST I do all THAT to unwind my twine from tightly around the spool holder housing???? HELP!!

[@augierivera6171]

Which bit did you use to take it apart?

[@U2BER2012]

Whew, that was a doozy; especially: when lining up the 2 halves and putting it back together. But, I finally got it.

[@jeffgomzalez5597]

Light weight, perfect for light weedeating

[@archanatiwari4114]

Please share the link from where can I get the spool

[@laurietureaud3737]

different model. still working on it

[@khriserickson]

Is there a trick to getting the handle off?

[@Dent01100]

I used a thick coat hanger to push in the hole and only the handle side with the coat hanger inserted came loose. I put both feet on it on the floor on either side of the handle and mangled the handle off with that one side disconnected. I thought the handle might be damaged, but the plastic handle deformed enough to remove it on just one side disconnected and it seems intact. It was not easy. I figured if the handle or housing was damaged it might be trash anyway.

[@SamuelG5]

Thanks. I have this apart, but when turning the spool housing to unscrew it from the cable, the spool is hard to turn while I am clamping the cable in a vise. Basically the cable is not unscrewing. Any suggestions?

[@annmaes7550]

Experiencing the same issue. I think that’s why he took apart the upper end; the shaft goes all the way up

[@SamuelG5]

@@annmaes7550 I was trying to replace the spool mechanism with another brand that has great reviews. That necessitated unscrewing the head assembly. Ultimately I was not able to do this and returned the head. I followed another KZbin video that showed how to disable the auto feed and only manually feed it. Still not a great solution, but better than the original design. BTW I saw another video that explained the reason for auto feed not working properly was the line size was too large.

[@annmaes7550]

@@SamuelG5 gotcha.

[@user-wk3kh6tl7f]

It is no way that easy to take off the adjustable handle! I feel like I wasted money buying that part from you guys!

[@joeg9478]

Ummm yeah, i’ll just buy a new Weedwhacker thanks. 😂

[@rubenruvalcaba585]

Not that easy My spool housing wouldn’t unscrew, it was like welded on to the shaft 😂😂😂

[@adebrettski]

how did you get it off?

[@Dent01100]

@@adebrettski Mine was kind of stuck and I used (2) 13mm open end wrenches on each side of the spool housing to break the threads loose. I had to push pretty hard to get it to move.
