Lmaoooo!!! Seriously. Been sitting here just staring at it for at least an hour. The key here was that hole in the bottom...which you never see in the pre-spooled assembly. This makes my life so much easier. THANK YOU!

Hello… I am a 70 year old widow who has never even used a Weedwhacker before. But I am so proud of myself because after watching your video I was able to restring the spool and it works absolutely beautifully. Thanks.😊

Same. My dad just passed away too and I'm teaching myself how to use this Ryobi One + out of the 4 weedeaters laying around in his shop.

Some of us don’t have anyone to show us and this worked perfectly! Thank you so much

Watch a few before yours and you were the only one to mention to UNHOOK the line from the cleats prior to installation. Thank you!

People like you, who take their time to make how-to videos for those of us that are mechanically impaired, ROCK. I see you have a couple hundred comments, but I'd bet you've informed thousands of others like me. Not only did I learn how to change the string spool, I also found out you could simply refill the empty ones! No, I did not know that. You probably think that's crazy but I'm not the only one. Anyway, your video couldn't have been any more clear (even for me) or explained any better. Thanks so much for your super informative instructions. ROCK ON!

I bought my Ryobi electric weed whacker at LEAST 10 years ago. Ive never had a problem with it. The string feed works like a champ. I was a bit dubious buying electric but admittedly at least for a weed whacker around the home it really is the way to go.

Thank you. I’ve been struggling with this all summer and finally looked it up. So freaking happy people like you do this for people like me! Thanks!!

Thank you so much I have been threading wrong for years didn't see the hole on the core thank you. I didn't know about the other features.😢

I have a box of spools that is lost somewhere in my 10x15 storage unit. I probably won't find them until I move to a new area. This video saved me so much time and money. Thank you my friend!!!

Thank you so much! I am a lady that does all my lawn care myself and this was very helpful and will save me so much oney instead of buyng the ready made spools.

Thank you for this! I was having a hell of time getting mine to work. Reading the comments that others have shared my frustrations (including it spitting out spool at a ridiculous rate) is really heartening.

Thank you, Josh. I am a widow who hates lawn work (my husband loved it), but am stuck doing it. Thanks for making this easy to follow!

Thank you! I just removed old spool and replaced with a new one. Your video was exactly what I needed. Sometimes you get a DIY video where it turns out the guy is teaching their 8 year old kid while the viewers groan, yell and scream no no no LOL.

Please make videos for a living. Straight forward, specific. You are the bomb!!!!!!!!!

Hey Josh! Thank you so much! I ran out of string this evening and every single summer I forget how to re- string my whip r snip!! Great video😊 xoxo D

It didn't take long at all, after watching this. Thanks a lot, bought store brand strings and was able to make it work.

Excellent, thorough illustration, commentary and recap!

Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video! I was getting so frustrated only finding what look like a double spool for a 40 v, when I'm sitting here with a single spool!. It seems like it would be so freaking simple, made it that much more frustrating. I appreciate the clear and concise directions and the visual to go along with it you did a good job

Thanks so much for the very informative & very clearly explained video on how to rewind the string on the empty spool! More power to you Josh!!!

Thanks, I had to take over lawn care and this was more helpful than asking Mr. Know-it-all.

I didn't realize the weed whacker line is automatically cut when it is stopped. I was moving from weed to weed in my driveway and stopping the machine when I moved on to each new weed. Apparently the string was cut at each weed! I couldn't figure out why the string was running out so fast. Your comment at the end about how the string gets cut really helped. Thanks so much!

@schnapps77

So is the better method just to always keep it on while you're cutting and start/stop as little as possible?

Thanks for the video!! I was Looking at something that I know was simple but didn’t know if I was doing it right. You saved me a good amount of time!!!

For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. kzread.infoUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG I didn't like the fact that they just kept cutting the edge of the lawn further and further from the rock lining the flower beds and leaving bare ground. And the grass was trimmed or scalped several feet around trees, etc. It was a constant battle with them so I told them to just mow and no trimming. I have Zoysia grass so it grows pretty slow. Obviously after a while it could use some trimming. I'm in my 80's so I can't do much of it myself.Finally I decided that if I could find a lightweight battery powered trimmer I might be able to do some light trimming. I decided to buy the LST201 20V trimmer. And it works great for my needs. I have back yard with about 150' of flower beds and several trees to be trimmed. I can lightly trim the whole yard with a single charge! The grass I trimmed was only a few inches high but the trimmer was more powerful than I expected.

You have no idea how much I appreciate this.

First and only tutorial I needed to watch. Perfect explanation. Thank you sir.

Thank you so much. I was putting the string in through the rectangular space not the hole and I didn’t realize that the little holes were just to store it; that it stays free while running it.

Exactly what I needed to see! Thanks for taking the time to present this video.

Great video - thanks! So much cheaper than buying the pre-strung spools!

They say it's the operator and not the tool. I bought this Ryobi and just love it! And then the spool ran out, I re-did the bobbin and then it stopped "working". I had an old Sears Home brand and after watching this, for years I have been doing this completely wrong. Thank you for the instruction! Be nice if manuals wrote out what do instead of putting pictures.

Thanks! First time for repooling my first weed wacker and it was easy peasy!

My dad gave me the electric weed whacker and it only had one piece of line in it and it keeps falling out. Glad I know how to respoil it when I find more line for it!

Thank You 🙏🏾 After watching your video I was able to restring my Ryobi weed wacker.

Great video! I've been buying the pre-spooled packs, unaware that u can just replace the line. Someone gave me new lines and I didn't know what to do with it. xD Thanks!

Thank you! I feel more confident now refilling my spool.

that was alot easier than I thought it was going to be. thank you.

Man, dude, I looked and looked on how to string and advance the string, basically just how to weed wack out. OMG, THANK YOU... YOU DA MAN 😊.

Lol! I have a file cabinet folder with all my "manuals" and it's a pain to find something too! But don't worry too much, the Ryobi manuals are terrible and don't give any information!

Thank you! I thought the whole spool would come off not just the white cover! If I didn't watch this I would have eventually pulled off the whole spool and probably would end up buying a new one :)

Awesome, thanks! This is the best video that I've seen on the subject.
