It helps to spin the cutting head and the flex shaft. It may require a screwdriver and a hammer for installation. This clutch is available as an individual replacement part and comes with a washer.

... Read mores or place parts in order how you took them off to get it al back in order and with the right screws.
I followed the instructions others had posted above and the repair could not have been easer. Saved my 4-cycle trimmer for less than $100 and that including buying a full set of torx screwdrivers (because why only buy the one you need!).

My normal mechanic said the trimmer was not worth repairing. It has been in the garage for years, waiting on me to try to repair. I am glad I did not listen to the repair man. The trimmer worked like a charm.
