Housing And Eyelets 308827002

Removed air filter cover. Used small needle nose pliers to slip in behind the fuel tubing and slip it off the hose nipples. The pressure against the end of the tubing caused it to expand slightly and slip off the nipples relatively easily. Loosened the four torx screws on the end of the trimmer enough that the housing would tilt back sufficient to allow the tank to slip free. I took a photo of the hose position before removing so I could be sure I replaced them back on the correct nipples.

Replacing the housing with eyelets on the trimmer head was very straight forward. Simply remove the housing cover like you were replacing the trimmer string and use a 1/2" end wrench to loosen the hex bolt. With the bolt removed the housing slips off the shaft easily.

1. Remove the old head.
2. Install new head, spring and spool.
3. Click retainer ring on and you are done.

Replaced worn out Eyelet assembly by taking out the spool, then removing the middle screw with a 7/16 socket. I reassemble new eyelet including spool, and trusted my Trimmer. No issues. Thank you.

Remove old eyelet housing bolted new eyelet housing, poof done

Had to insert an awl into a hole at top of housing to stop the shaft from rotating, and then used a crescent wrench to loosen the bolt that holds the housing in place. Swap housings and tighten up, easy peezy!

Pressed the two tabs inward and pulled the black ring from the hub. Inserted the new button in the line reel and re-installed the black retaining ring.
Repair complete.
The rest of the parts will be installed onto my other weed eater as a complete unit. These hub assemblies are the easiest to re-string of any that I have ever used.
