- 1). Disconnect the weed trimmer from the power source. If the trimmer is electric, unplug it. If the trimmer is a gas model, detach the spark plug wire.
- 2). Remove the spool cap and the bump knob from the power head to gain access to the inner reel. Remove the inner reel and discard any remaining trimmer cord.
- 3). Cut a piece of 0.080-inch monofilament trimmer replacement line to a length of 7 to 9 feet. Thread one end in the notch in the inner reel. Wind the line in the direction shown on the arrows on the inner reel until 6 inches of trimmer line remains.
- 4). Insert the line through the eyelet or hole in the outer hub, then place the inner reel back in the power head. Replace the spool cap and the bump knob on the power head.
- 5). Restore power to the unit.
