Hi folks
I've got a US wilks 52cc gas (petrol) powered strimmer -- but it's got one of those new fangled strimmer heads -- I can't make headsor tails of how to reload the spool. Seems all you need to do is push one end of the strimmer line through a hole in the side, until it comes out of the other end and then rewind until you have the desired lengths.
I can never get the line to appear the other side so ????
I've a phd in engineering (elec) so if I can't make what should be a simple piece of kit work how do the majority do it.
I used to have a STIHL strimmer and although reloading the spool was fiddly it worked -- but I needed a new strimmer -- the US Wilks one was ideal as I'd have had to wait 3 months for a STIHL strimmer -- but while the machine is excellent - I've no idea on how to reload the wretched spool with the strimming cord (nylon).
Surely there must be some gardeners here !!!
cheers
