weed trimmer

17 years ago

My fathers Feather Lite Weed Eater cut out the other day he asked me to take a look at it. The pull cord had no give at all. I took the shroud off and removed the rod from the clutch and it runs fine but when I put it back together I have the same problem with the pull cord. Can any one tell me what the problem is and how i could fix it.

I'm not sure what you mean by "give" but check for a broken rewind spring if the cord hangs out. Check for a pinch of snag if the cord can't be pulled out.
