Step-by-Step Guide on How to Load Ryobi Precut Trimmer Line
Before you start loading precut trimmer lines, it's best to check if your Ryobi Trimmer Head is compatible with this type of line. Usually, these lines will work with most Ryobi Trimmer Heads, but it's always best to double-check and make sure. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to load your Ryobi Precut Trimmer Line.
Step 1: Turn off Your Trimmer
The first thing you need to do is turn off the trimmer to ensure your safety and prevent any accidents while loading your trimmer line. It's best to remove the battery or unplug the trimmer before you begin. Then, locate the knob at the end of the trimmer head; this knob ensures that the spool in the trimmer head is secured properly.
Step 2: Remove the Trimmer Head
To remove the trimmer head, the knob at the end of the trimmer head needs to be loosened. Once you have done that, pull the trimmer head away from the motor housing. Be sure not to lose the spring behind the trimmer head.
Step 3: Open the Spool and Remove Excess Line from the Trimmer Head
After removing the spool from the trimmer head, use a pair of scissors to cut excess trimmer line. Then, open the spool by unwinding the flap and remove any old trimmer lines from the spool.
Step 4: Load the New Ryobi Precut Trimmer Line
The next step is to load the new Ryobi Precut Trimmer Line. Thread the trimmer line through the eyelet holes of the spool, and then wrap the line around the spool in the direction indicated by the arrow. Ensure that the line is even and aligned properly so that it won't tangle. When you're finished, tuck the line's end into the slot on the spool.
Step 5: Reassemble Your Trimmer
After loading the trimmer line, it's time to reassemble your Ryobi Trimmer. Insert the trimmed spool back into the trimmer head, placing the spring back into the appropriate location. Then, tighten the knob on the trimmer head, making sure the spool is properly secured in place.
