Good until it broke

4 years ago
This is a great little trimmer. Light and easy to use. Until the plastic part of the spinner broke which led to the spool unwinding at high speed and causing the mechanism to jam.

Liked it when I first bought it and used it but it only lasted one summer. Maybe the motor burned out? Anyhow that made me very disappointed with the product. Will buy Black and Decker next time.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Great for small lawns

7 years ago
This trimmer is perfect for smaller lawns. There is no need for anything more if you aren't trimming for long. I don't find the unit heavy at all, as others have mentioned. Not sure how long the trim line will last but at this price you can't beat this trimmer if you are on a budget.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Q: How to replace spool ?

7 years ago
1 Answer
  • A: The Cutting Line • A double-wound spool of monofilament cutting line is pre-installed on the grass trimmer. When the cutting line needs replacing, install a new spool. Use Yardworks® 60-2269-6 replacement spools. remove the spool • Unplug the extension cord. • Turn the grass trimmer over to access the spool (2). • Remove the spool cover by pressing on two tabs parallel to each other on the side of the cover (1). • Remove the spool (2) from the spool housing (3). REPLACE THE SPOOL • Replace the spool (2) with a new pre-wound spool. • Insert the end of one line through the opening (4) in the spool housing. Insert the other side of the line through the other opening (5). • Align the tabs on the spool cover with the slots in the spool housing on the trimmer head. • Push down on the spool cover, locking it to the spool housing. • To advance the line when initially installed, you must pull both sides of the line while pressing the black line release button on the side of the spool housing (6). refill the spool If you are unable to purchase a new pre-wound spool, you may purchase 0.065” (1.65 mm) nylon monofilament cutting line and refill the spool that was supplied with your grass trimmer. • Remove the spool from the trimmer head. • Cut a length of cutting line to approximately 20’ (6.1 m) long and fold it in half. • Loop the “V” end of the cutting line into the small notch on the inner rail of the spool to anchor the line. • Wind the line evenly and tightly in a counterclockwise direction. Make sure each section of the spool contains a separate thread. • Do not wind the line beyond the edge of the cutting spool.
