Old style stihl string trimmer12/31/2023 ![]() It couldn't hurt, and it could be the reason I hate string trimmers so much. I don't know how much truth there is to it, but I am going to try it next time. If you just jam it into the weeds instead of swinging it through, the head will overheat. Trimmer in video is a Stihl FS38 dual line string trimmer, however the same procedure. I told him that is pretty much what I do, but why would it matter? He said it is because the trimmer head needs some airflow so it doesn't heat up and cause the line to melt. In this easy to follow video I show you how to re-string a Stihl grass trimmer. He told me the line wasn't my problem if it always melts, he said it was because I just jam the trimmer into the weeds and keep plowing through without swinging the trimmer back and forth. Leave one side of the string approximately six inches longer than the other side of the string. Pull the string where it fits tight around the inside section of the holding unit. ![]() Insert each end of string into the openings around the center of the unit that hold it. Oh, when I was getting the line I mentioned to the salesman that I hated string trimmers because the line always melts for me and I heard this Stihl Premium line was a good choice. Cut off approximately 10 feet of weed eater string. I'm still going to soak it until I rewind the trimmer head Friday. I always keep a separate spool head ready to go. I picked up a spool of the Stihl 0.105 line last night and have to admit, it is as flexible as the red licorice whips. Check out this video that shows how to rewind a Stihl 2 line head trimmer.
