      If the Kobalt Trimmer motor fails to start when the switch trigger is depressed, first ensure the power cord is properly plugged in. Next, check your household circuit breaker. If problems persist, there may be a wiring or electrical contact issue.

      If the line on your Kobalt Trimmer isn't cutting well, the cutting blade on the guard may have become dull. Sharpen the cutting blade with a file or replace it with a new one.

      Greg SchultzAug 26, 2025
      If the Kobalt Trimmer head won't advance the line, first stop the trimmer and unplug it. Then, remove any grass that may be binding the motor shaft or trimmer head. If that doesn't work, unplug the power cord and replace the trimmer line. Also, ensure that the trimmer head is clean, and the line isn't tangled on the spool. If tangled, remove the line and rewind it.
