The spindle cannot be serviced, and must be
replaced as a unit if it gets damaged. See Fig-

NOTE
The cutting height is adjusted by sliding the
disc that the trimmer line is attached to up or
down the spindle shaft.
The disc is held in position by two wing nuts,
that must be loosened before making a height
adjustment, and retightened to hold that
adjustment.
The glide ball remains fixed, and the disc
moves in relation to the glide ball.
The wing nuts cannot be removed from their
studs: the threads are peened.
