How to Install a Homelite Spool Line
- 1). Disconnect the power cord that is attached to the Homelite weedeater from the electrical outlet, and turn the tool upside down so you are looking at the bottom of the unit.
- 2). Slide the tabs in on the sides of the spool retainer to detach the spool from the plastic housing. Lift the spool retainer out of the housing.
- 3). Unwind about six inches of both new trimmer lines on the new spool retainer so there are two lines extending from the spool.
- 4). Place the two lines in the slots on the side of the new spool and set the spool inside the plastic housing of the trimmer.
- 5). Feed the ends of both trimmer lines through the holes in the side of the plastic housing and press down on the spool retainer until you hear the plastic tabs lock into place.
- 6). Turn the Homelite Weedeater over and plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.
