Dewalt Brushless 20v DCST920 Weedeater: Replacing String

[@sokay8076]

Instead of turning the outside clockwise, hold the part you turned, then turn bottom part counter clock wise. Alot easier and u don't have to keep untangling the string as it feeds in.

[@porkchop803scwilliams9]

You should make a video

[@gabrielmata2875]

Your the man.

[@JimChambers]

I was just coming here to say that. The line doesn't get tangled doing it that way.

[@noahbaker6268]

About a year ago I did the same search including the Dewalt website as well as all of KZbin at that time and I could not find a single video that appropriately showed how to restring this weed eater. I did finally find one that relatively came close and I use their technique, which wasn’t nearly as effective as yours. Are used it after restraining it just a few minutes ago and it works so much better than anything else I have seen! Kudos to you. THANK YOU!

[@LakshayGrover]

Thanks for making this video, you’re absolutely right we could not find any tutorial videos at all!

[@rtsteele567]

I took my trimmer back to Home Depot where I bought it. Five guys in orange aprons couldn’t figure it out.

[@casshutsell4420]

Thanks so much! No one in my household or immediate family could help me with this. Extremely helpful!

[@lilfuthedon4246]

Cass Hutsell the same here

For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. kzbin.infoUgkx_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.

[@rhvreugde]

Thanks. That explained that mystery. People like you make America work.

[@HenryFriesen2222]

That was very helpful it was very easy but not knowing makes me hesitate and by seeing a quick video like this makes me feel a lot more comfortable doing it

[@HoustonRunion]

Thank you Beau. I loved this weedeater until it ran out of string. I, like you, looked everywhere for how to restring it. I ended up hiring a yard service to just do my weed eating, thinking I would figure it out one day and eventually gave up. Now that you’ve shown me how to restring it, it has to be the easiest weedeater I’ve ever owned from a restringing perspective. I assume those down votes you got for this video or from a competitor of Dewalt. Please ignore them. My wife thanks you, as do I :-)

[@ericaedmonson400]

Great Video. I had no idea what to do & the direction were confusing so I’m glad I found your video! Thanks again.

[@volchokmichael4431]

Thanks. It took a time or two watching your demo, but all worked like a charm. Many thanks.

[@TheRealSmithFamily]

Helped! Had the 922 for two years and just had to restring it.

[@karins7976]

Awesome, many thanks!! DeWalt should should give you a fat coupon for providing their customers with this helpful video.

[@jascobeck2196]

Thanks I was beginning to think I was the only person with this setup.

[@renaecheezburger1220]

Super helpful, man! I just ran out of string in my DeWalt and I was dreading trying to figure this out 😕 you are my hero today 😁 Thank you

[@scottismail6311]

Thank you! They couldn’t make this info harder to find!

[@RaggedyNerd]

Thanks Kevin Costner you’re the best!

[@kendrairwin3237]

Thanks! Couldn’t figure out how to do this on my own!!! Your video was perfect!

[@PassMeDatShugga]

I wonder why people disliked? He literally explained it perfectly!!

[@KC-yp4hc]

Need this for work, couldn’t. Find it anywhere else. Thanks a lot!

[@GodsPerfect]

They included a bogus "other model" with my new trimmer. You saved the day, thanks!

[@shannonmacomber8255]

Thanks so much for making this easier for all of us!!

[@bobbystewart2605]

U don’t need to take the cap off, it works exactly like a echo speedfeed head (looks like it’s the same too). Just have to line the eyelets up with the center piece to where u c light in the eyelets, put the string in midway, and twist either the body or top piece of the head.

[@matthewmullins3553]

Wow. I feel like an idiot now. No wonder I couldn't keep the string in. Thanks, Kevin!

[@donelderjr]

Great video Mr. Costner

[@Entelrgy]

The triangle point on the trimmer head lines up with the hole to load

[@joshmcintyremusic7455]

You saved our backyard. Thank you

[@DJ3cko]

OMG! Thank you, thank you. thank you. For 2 seasons I've been doing it wrong.

[@gunrunner7236]

thanks for taking your time to help a few people like me :)

[@jimm3279]

Could not find this anywhere! Thank you!

[@cdmwwf]

Thanks bud from Connecticut

[@BrettDeriso]

The only reason to remove the cover is to deal with a tangle on the inside. If you've run all the string out, you can easily locate the through hole by aligning the feed holes in the head with the two arrow shaped notches on the ratchet ring (assuming they haven't been ground off somehow). Leaving the cover on give you more to grab as you ratchet the new string in :)

[@quattrokev1]

thank you so much for taking the time to post....

[@1rdrain]

How much string do you start with? 20'? 25'?

[@danielaguirre6895]

Great video. Thanks. Cracked the spool cap. Any suggestion where to get another one.

[@Thepinkenvelope]

Thank you!!!!! You just saved me. I couldn’t figure this out.

[@francotirador941]

Tank you men is amazing, I was having a hard time but make so easy now wow I subscribed right away

[@iamhollywood315]

god dangit I've been doing it wrong the whole time. Then I finally ordered my string and the day it arrives my spool head breaks so I have to order a replacement

[@popiscoolnow]

I have plenty of line but it won’t come out when I tap it on ground. Any suggestions?

[@samsnow7370]

sometimes the lines cross over each other. First make sure that you had whined the line clockwise together (I'm not sure if it is an option as the wheel spins in one direction freely(?) and you have no choice but to spin the wheel counter clockwise). If you indeed had whined the line clockwise then pull the line out and redo neatly. Mine worked; tap and the reel will let loose some line. Good luck.

[@wayne1362]

Better to make the line shorter

[@thomasbenedict6146]
