Product Description

?

Keep your trimming jobs quick and hassle-free with this genuine Black & Decker replacement spool. Designed for use with select string trimmer models, this part includes both the spool and pre-wound .065 gauge cutting line, making it easy to swap out and get back to work. This component houses the cutting line that trims grass and weeds, and it's sold individually. Replacing it is simple—just remove the spool cover, place the new spool inside the housing, feed a bit of line through the opening, and snap the spool cap back into place. No tools are required, and installation takes just minutes.

I looked up my model on line and found instructions to repair trimmer that would not auto advance the line and followed instructions. Took less than 5 minutes to repair and it works like new. Too much is going into land fills that can be repaired at a reasonable cost so that is why I fixed my trimmer. This place had the parts I needed a nd was easy to order and at my door in days. I was thrilled. All I need to do was press the sides of the bottom cap to remove the old spool and spring. The I used pliers to pull the lever out of the spool housing , then pressed the new one in. Inserted the new spool and line with 4 or 5 inches of line out of the eyelets on the spool cover, placed in the spring, then pressed the bottom cap back on.

The spool cover had wore thin and the entire cover cracked and popped off. The spring and spool were also lost in the process since I no longer had the Cover to hold everything in place.

Removed the old cover (what was remaining anyway).
I then tested to verify the new cover fit since my original cover was black and this one was orange. It fit perfect.
I removed the new cover and attempted to determine the direction of the spool. I lined the spool side with the adjustment arm inside the main spool holder. < br />I then tested the spring to determine if it should go on before the spool or after.
I quickly determined that it goes on after the spool and string are in place.
I then placed the cover on, plugged in the trimmer, and squeezed the trigger.
Back in business...after 5 years of non-use since the old cover cracked!
