Milwaukee Easy Load String Trimmer Head Specifications

The string trimmer cutter will take care of any excess and you can bump it if it’s too short. Keep going until you reach the middle.įinally, wind it up until both ends have 8 inches or so sticking out.

As soon as you pull up the slack on the short side, it will start pulling the longer side through the head. Holding onto both lines with one finger and thumb, pull both lines so they stay even. The simple way to do this is to match the two ends together once you thread one side through. If you’ve never used a system like this, understand that threading the line through to the middle is critical so you have even ends. Turn the line so it’s bending up or down rather than to the side and it usually goes through on the first try. If your line has a lot of bend to it (most does), it may try to curve around the middle instead of going through. Next, thread you trimmer line through the hole and out the other side. That’s easy enough since they stand out against the black.

It sounds so easy, but is it just marketing hype? Jumping right into the heart of the matter, Milwaukee claims that refilling your line is as simple as align, load, wind.
