-remove lower shaft from the upper.
-take the t15 and t25 torque bit to remove the 2 small screws on the neck of the head to release the head from the lower shaft.
-pull the metal drive shaft cable out through the bottom of the old lower shaft. The cable will only remove one way.
-grease the cable before inserting into the bottom end of the new lower shaft.
-place the trimmer head onto the bottom of the lower shaft and reinsert both screws. Try to align the smaller of the screws (t15 torque screw) with the push button release at the top of the shaft before tightening so the trimmer head is not turned to one of the sides.
