How to Change the Trimmer Line on a Troy Built Weed Eater
- 1). Make sure the weed eater is turned off and flip the weed eater over to examine the head where the string is housed.
- 2). Holding onto the round knob on the bottom of the head, push the head in and twist counter clockwise until you feel the head disengage from the weed eater body.
- 3). Pull the head off of the weed eater and set it aside. Cut six feet of trimmer line from the trimmer line box and fold it in half.
- 4). Wrap the trimmer line clockwise around the weed eater head, in the line grooves. When you there is only 4 inches of line left, slide each end of line into its respective line holder on the side of the head.
- 5). Reinstall the weed eater head onto the weed eater body by pressing in and turn clockwise.
