I have a Ryobi P2000 18 volt weedeater. It has run out of line. I bought replacement reels but can't figure out how to install it. I don't have a manual. Please help!
The long bolt coming down at the end shaft like place reel over bolt then turn back and forth slowly while pushing upward and it should lock in and take knob or bolt at end and tighten to the right.
When looking at the bottom of the trimmer there are two yellow tabs. These are connected to the cover. Push the two yellow tabs in and pull the cover off. You can now see the spool the line goes on . Pull the spool straight out. Feed the new line through the hole in the base of the trimmer. Run the other end through the ridges inside the spool to lock the line in . Continue to wrap the line around the spool. The proper direction should be printed on the spool...mine was clockwise. Replace the spool in the trimmer. Put the cover back on then cut the line. I left enough so the trimmer would properly cut the length. Add power and turn on trimmer.
