Just came to say, I appreciate you and this video. Yes, I am a 53 year old female and it stumped me😂!

@FieldGuidetoDIY 15 дней назад

So glad to help! Thank you for watching. You got this!

@jamesbgolden2213 20 дней назад

Thank you so much. I almost got frustrated and threw my machine out. But I was able to put it back together in one piece after your video.

I bought mine about a year ago and had problems pushing and twisting the head to unlock it. Took it to Home Depot and they had trouble so they gave me a new one. Still had trouble even after using WD-40 on it. Finally got it off so I could clear the tangled line inside it. Should be a lot easier to remove.

So glad you got it.

How did you get yous off? I've tried just about everything short of prying off with screw drivers.

Got one for Christmas and went to use it for the first time today. For the life of me I just cannot get the head off to open up and undo tangles. I tried before using it just to see how hard it was. Couldn’t open it. So used it for 5 minutes and had an inside tangle. It took my wife tapping in it with a screwdriver/hammer to get it out of the locked position. Now I can’t get this stupid thing back on. It shouldn’t be this difficult. And yes, I’m pushing and turning. Why would it be this difficult?

Hey Kevin, sorry to hear about your experience. Make sure the arrows are lined up properly. Then make sure the spool cover is compressing to the lid.

Absolutely. You are quite welcome. Thank you for watching!

I used WD40 to aid in the twist step. It did make it easier. Thanks for your guidance.

How do you get the whole head off, I’m trying to put a new head on mine

@FieldGuidetoDIY 2 дня назад

Great question! Coming soon. Thank you for the suggestion.

Does anyone know if you can replace the auto feed head on a 40volt Ryobi trimmer with a bump feed head?

@FieldGuidetoDIY 28 дней назад

Scrambler, i am not sure i follow you. My 40v came with the bump feed in that I bounce the head one time and it dispenses a little more line before trimming it off. Let me know if I am missing something.

@ohhi9195 26 дней назад

How would I put it back on? Im struggling to get it back on unless I'm doing something wrong lol

@FieldGuidetoDIY 26 дней назад

Line up the arrows, press real hard, and twist.

@vlndvrhr5042 5 дней назад

I am struggling with this too. I am so tempted to go wave down a neighbor.

@FieldGuidetoDIY 5 дней назад

@vlndvrhr5042 you don’t need to take the head off unless you have to. Can you pull the line out?

@unclegeorge7845 Месяц назад

What weight and how much is recommended?

@FieldGuidetoDIY Месяц назад

Ryobi recommends 25 feet of .095 inch - 095 inch geni.us/wc6Jk for the spool or geni.us/hAiFg for the pre-cut.

@unclegeorge7845 Месяц назад

@@FieldGuidetoDIY I had just watched another expert tell me to disassemble the head which I did and then came in to your video to find out what weight and how much. And you explained the "real" (yes I bypassed the pun "reel" - well almost) way to do it. I later ran into specs that recommended .080 and about 16 feet? She's loaded now and waiting for me. Oh, I used your method much to my pleasant surprise. Aloha

@righteyeartistry156 18 дней назад

I have zero room to compress. Seems like it's bottomed out already.

@FieldGuidetoDIY 17 дней назад

Does it turn/twist st all?

@olgakulesh115 18 дней назад

Well, there is a previous video… and you need to remove it! Now you are showing a proper way, then WHY the wrong video still there…. I ruined all my morning with you help…

@FieldGuidetoDIY 18 дней назад

Olga, you asked. Here is a comment I got on the other video JUST THIS MORNING. Thanks for watching and asking. "The other videos I watched only show you how to put the string in when the string has already been removed. No need to take it apart. But I was wondering about the remaining string left on the spool. This video really helped me understand the removal of the old string. Thanks for posting"
