Troy Bilt Weed Eater

Asked Jul 19, 2009, 11:56 AM — 1 Answer
I have a TB70SS Troy Bilt weed eater and I can't figure out how to change the string on it. I can't get the top of it off? Would anyone know how to do this? I'm in a hurry please answer soon.

Hi! Askamandalyn, and welcome to AMHD

The bolt on the trimmer head has reversed threads,
So you have to go counter-clockwise to remove,
And there should be a hole in the shaft collar
So you can put a drill bit or similar in to stop the rotation of the shaft.

Need the manual?
