Hey Beatriz I just wanted to let you know you are not alone. My husband died of Covid in June 2020 since then I have tried my best to take care of what I have to and I also came here because my weed eater is giving me fits. I never paid one bit of attention to anything my husband was doing yard related but now wish I had. Life is a struggle but with the help and grace of God we will make it. My best wished to you. God bless you !

Thank you so much! I am 60 and grew up with trimmer heads you remove and rewind. I was about to drive over this month old thing out of frustration. The instruction booklet that came with mine (in SA, new 1000 watt trimmer) still demonstrated the old type spool I was used to. Ryobi will hear from me.

@@jasonlarsen4945 the way I did it: there is a big round nut with a bolt in the middle. Unscrew that and it should pop out. I had to use pliers the first few times to get leverage. You may have to give it a slight twist for it to pop out. There will be two arows 180° apart from each other. On the sides or bottom. Above the arrows there should be a hole. This hole runs all the way through. Make sure that is clear.when puting it back together do night tighten it all the way down, leave room for it to move up and down when pressed. Line the arrows up with the exterior holes, mine were not perfectly lined up, it took a little motivation to get it through.

This technique does work - but I’ve never been able to load it as easily as you do - I developed a technique of simultaneously pushing and twisting the line to get it to go through the head. I find the twist helps it clear whatever internal gates it has to get through whereas pushing alone gets it jammed up…

I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use kzitem.infoUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.

By far, the worst design. I could take a Stihl head apart and restring in about 45 seconds. I sit here and continue to try threading the line through for at least 5 minutes every couple of months. The arrows are line up but the string only wants to go so far before getting blocked and stopping. Without fail, every time.
