Socket set, grinder
Spool retainer stuck, can't be removed
Lent my trimmer to a family member ..... while attempting to replace trimmer line, he did not realize that the spool retainer was reverse - threaded and tried to turn the spool retainer counter clockwise until the red plastic housing was damaged. I had to grind away red plastic housing with grinder to expose the spool retainer bolt. Once the bolt was exposed, I removed it with socket and replaced it with the new spool retainer assembly. REMEMBER.... SOMETIMES BOLTS ARE REVERSE-THREADED.

It worked!
I was not sure this would work because it was not identical to the original part, but nevertheless it worked perfectly. Probably better than the original part.

Timely and correct replacement
