Spool cover

For those of us who are patiently waiting for the spool cover to be available & our trimmers are less than four years will they be replaced for free? Going back to a hand trimmer hurts my hand. If the piece isn’t soon available I’ll probably buy another brand of trimmer.

Cutting head adapters would help
on May 22, 2020
Posted by: Adaptor
I purchased my trimmer this spring but as a clearance item it was missing the spool cover. Outfitted with a heavy duty cutting blade, the gas trimmer I own needs a lot of maintenance but works great for the thorny vines that grow in my area. I retro-fitted the cutting blade on my 60V Greenworks trimmer and it works awesome!
Once the spool cover ibecomes available again, I will mostly use the trimmer for edging and weeds, but having the power to cut through the vines is great. Are there any fasteners and adapters available for after-market cutting heads?

Too fragile

I like this weed eater when it works but it breaks way to easily. The spool cover has broken twice now and I've only used it four times. I'm just using it normally, nothing abusive. Now I can't even buy a replacement part. Good thing I kept my old one. It's not cordless but never lets me down.

Spool cover is inadequate

I’ve owned this weed eater for 2 years. My battery life runs around 1 hour and 45 minutes. The power is good, but I’ve had two spool covers break in two seasons, and now I can’t get the part. When the part comes in, I’m selling mine.

Broke on second use.

The spool cover broke the second time I used it during routine trimming. Now the trimmer is unusable and apparently the product has been out of stock for months. There are dozens of FAQ posts about the same issue, this is clearly not an isolated event.
