Mother, Father! I never knew that! Man, thanks for showing this. I was one of those boneheads that manually wound up the line and then fumbled about pushing it through the holes and at the same time replacing the head and screwing it down. Duh! Thanks again! Cheers.

Awesome!!!! And you can also feed a single 12 foot length all the way through the center of the spool and then follow your steps... I used to hate restringing, but now it's just a few minutes and I''m off.... Thank You!!!!

Can also cut 12 feet and feed it all the way through when the arrows are lined up then pull until even sides then twist it until 4 inches left

Was at a couple vids before this one. Thought my spool was broken. After your vid I got spooled up and working in under 5 min. I was trying to spool it manually like the other vids. So simple this way. Big thanks!

Thank you brother man, I bought an FS 38 head today and was befuddled how to load the line, and this shows me clearly how. I'm going to machine the shaft of my Stihl FE 55 TO suit it, because I cannot find any new trimmer heads for it. And this FE 38 head is much easier and quicker to load the cutting line than the original FE 55 one.

It costs a little more to have a pre-spooled line, but when you're in the middle of a trimming job kzbin.infoUgkx429xwEjNPnwzQohFrURRyKF51YfOD_Du , it is so nice to just pop out the old one and pop in a new one. Love Black & Decker tools. Especially the 20-volt battery operated ones. And, as usual, it came on time. Thanks Amazon!

Just wanted to say thank you! I forget almost every year. I only have to weed whack 3-4 times a year. Thanks again! Also little tip I was told by another guy was, get your length you need (12 feet 15 feet etc.) Cut it a single length then feed it into both sides. Then go from there and when you get to the end you make your final cut and It should be even!

@beaner2907 Жыл бұрын
I have exactly the same weed eater with the same head and this works great. However, me and bump feed don't seem to be on the same wave length so every time it's out of string I have to take it all apart and do this method all over again. It's a love/hate relationship that's really leaning more to the hate side.

Thanks for the tutorial. It clarified a few things for me. I like your way of measuring 6 feet. We used that at a lumber mill I worked at in the early '70s. I measure my string trimmer line that way still.

@joegallo83833 ай бұрын
SORRY TIMBERRR, Please update this video. The whole idea of this head is simplicity. You DO NOT have to take the head off or apart to recline it, You DO NOT have to cut the line in half (you feed the line (12-15 feet, 2mm or .080” or you can use 2.4mm or .095” but of course shorter) RIGHT THROUGH the HEAD (with the arrows lined up) till it comes out the other side then pull it until equal lengths then wind according to the arrows on the head
@johnsin38432 ай бұрын
OK, I am going to try this next time I load. I will get back to you. I am back, unfortunately this does not work with tap feed but perhaps after inserting the line into the holes in the spool it may be easier to load
@zzoikk742 ай бұрын
This works for a quick spool, but you are supposed to hand wind the line. When you take the thing apart, you can see the arrows where to put the line in and then you hand spool it around each side it’s a lot faster and you can spool a lot more line. This is how we did it as professional landscapers. With the exact same model, there is a lot of confusion over this. Just go to your local sthil dealer and speak to them about it.

That is a different head than mine came with. Mine has the standard black one . I did find a hack to make it quick. I miss my ez feed you run one 10-12' string all the way through pull the ends together stop . And wind em up

@SolidNate99 Жыл бұрын
Can someone tell me how to feed it more wire as you're trimming? Does this happen automatically? I know on my honda trimmer, I would kinda smack the bottom of the head (the circular piece) against the pavement or grass kinda lightly and then more line would come out.
