    Why does the line on my Weed Eater 545117526 Trimmer keep breaking?
    • R
      Robin RobertsJul 30, 2025
      If the line of your Weed Eater Trimmer does not advance or breaks while cutting, check the line routing and rewind the line tightly and evenly onto the spool. Ensure you are using the correct line size (0.065 in. (1.65 mm) dia.). Also, make sure there's enough line outside of the head by removing the cover and pulling 4 inches (10 cm) of line out. Clean the unit to remove any dirt buildup.

      If the line welds onto the spool of your Weed Eater Trimmer, ensure you are using the correct line size (0.065 in. (1.65 mm) dia.) and the correct spool. Also, avoid crowding the line against the material you are cutting; instead, cut with the tip of the line fully extended.

    What to do if the Weed Eater 545117526 head stops under load?

      If the trimmer head of your Weed Eater Trimmer stops under a load, ensure you're allowing the tip of the line to do the cutting, instead of crowding the line against the material. Also, check the breaker box, and remove any debris that may be stopping the head. If those steps don't resolve the issue, it could be due to an electrical failure, in which case you should contact your authorized service dealer.

    Why is the line usage excessive on my Weed Eater 545117526?
    • G
      Gabriel ReedAug 23, 2025
      Excessive line usage in your Weed Eater Trimmer can be caused by several factors. First, check the line routing in the head. Ensure you are using the correct line size. Crowding the line against the material you're cutting can also lead to excessive usage, so cut with the tip of the line fully extended. Finally, a worn or damaged spool may be the culprit, so consider replacing it.
