@@fredacollins6190 That's great to hear - thanks for taking the time to leave a kind message. Good luck!
Hi, just watched this from Italy. My dad died a month ago. I had to replace the wire of this strimmer but I didn't have a clue on how to do it. So I watched your video and I managed to do it! So thank you from the bottom of my heart. I miss my dad but I am pretty sure he's laughing at me and at my "success"! Thanks
Hi Laura
So sorry to hear about your Dad. That's tough.
Really glad you managed to get this fixed.
I don't know you or him, but I bet he's really proud of you.
Thanks for the kind comment, I really appreciate it.
Thanks so much. My dad always looked after our garden and I dont have much clue about what I'm doing now he is not here..., so this really helped me today. So very clear...thank you!
Haha - me neither!
Forgive me, I don't know you, but I do know he's really proud of you Joanne!
Thanks for the kind comment!
thank you neil, you just helped a 74 year old very recently widowed lady over what seemed to be a huge obstacle, which thanks to you wasn't, have a lovely day, barbara
Fantastic - thanks for the very kind comment and really pleased you're out there.
Great help as I'm a pensioner and live on my own. This video was very good. Thank you so much. Christine
Thanks for the kind message Christine, really appreciate it. Good luck in the garden!
@@DADDELIVERS 👍🙋
Its a strimmer! Very helpful UK based, clear and easy to see. Thank you
Thanks for the kind comment Jan!
Good luck with the strimming!
Thanks so much. My husband and I were so frustrated because we really want to have the job finished and we couldn't until we watched your video. Saved us a futher argument 😅many thanks.
Haha I know that feeling!
Thanks for taking the time to leave this kind message Denise and good luck with the strimming!
Thank you Neil. You made a daunting task manageable for me. It is simple, but not if it's my first attempt. Ordered with a click from your link. I would have asked my dad but he's long gone - I'm 70!
Thanks for the very kind comment Marian and good luck with the strimming!
Brilliant! Told me everything I needed to know and was the only one who's strimmer looked and worked just like mine.
Haha - that's great, thanks for the kind comment Gail!
thank you for this, the replacement of the line was the only thing holding me back from buying this model Strimmer :)
That's great, thanks for the kind message Lesley!
To pull more of the line through, you don't have to open the spool compartment, there is a button on the side of the compartment, that allows the spool to move one click at a time, letting a little line out as you press it and pull on the line.
Thanks Rowena!
"Why grass cutter cord goes inside as motor runs and I have to take it out often. It’s very painful. How to fix it? "
Thank you for showing clearly. Just bought one yesterday.
Ahh thanks for the kind message Erlinda - Good luck with the gardening!
Thanks Dad!
Excellent - exactly what I needed to know
Thanks Mary!
Just had to double check to see if I did it right. Following now. Good luck bro!
Thanks for the kind comment karimba45!
Thanks for this, extremely helpful
Thanks for the kind comment Yemi!
Very helpful thank you Neil. I also purchased a genuine Bosch line after finding the cheaper ones to be of poor quality and therefore not so cost effective in the long term. I’m happy that I am threading my strimmer correctly. I was beginning to think that the cheaper spools ran out so quickly because I hadn’t treaded them properly. I will not however be buying genuine Bosh parts from Amazon. I cannot with any conscience buy from them. I gladly pay a bit more to purchase from a local shop. I like to support my local traders and community economy. Fortunately we live in a country that allows individual’s rights to choose. Great video. Keep up the good work. 👍
Thanks for the kind comment - too true! Really appreciate it sosmileatme!
I couldn't work it out, then I watched your video...thanks.
That's awesome to hear Dick - thanks for the kind message!

Glad it was helpful - thanks for the kind comment Zak!
Thanks for the video. I watched it last year, but forgot how to pull out the line since then!
BTW, tell your grumpy client from me that it's a strimmer!
That's brilliant - thanks for the kind comment Mary, really appreciate it and glad it might help!
Thank you for making this video :)
Thanks for the kind comment Harry, glad it might help!
Good advice about using proper cable/strimmer wire - cheap stuff doesn't last a minute in my garden, even B&Q replacement wire. On my ART 23 SL there is a release button on the side of the spool casing which releases the internal wheel and lets you pull out the length you need.
Thanks for the kind comment Simon --ohhhh, I wonder if that's what I need to do!
Very good video, thank you
Thanks for the kind comment Mark, I appreciate it!
Thanks a lot that's exactly what i'm looking for
Thanks Melomane Speed!
Thanks for this. I bought some cheap and nasty ones and it's doing my head in so will stop being a tight arse and buy from your link. BTW in Australia we call it a whipper snipper!
Thanks SuperChanny! I feel your pain - my answer is to do less gardening to save the line!
Whipper Snipper it is!
Thanks Neil!
Thanks Paul! 🖐
very helpful, thanks
Thanks for the kind comment Philip!
Definitely a Strimmer. Good video 👍
Thanks for the kind message Anthony!
nice one. thanks
Thanks for the kind comment Raed!
Thank You Very Much!!!
Thanks for the kind comment Marja-Liisa!
A Strimmer, Trimmer, String Trimer, Weedwaker, Wipersniper. It has many names, it just depends on what your country or area calls it.
In the UK it's a Strimmer, very simply String Trimmer merged together to make Strimmer.
Nice video, just subscribed.
Thanks for the kind comment!
@@DADDELIVERS I'm glad you took the comment kindly, I was concerned it sounded rude.
Thank you for the nice reply
@@britishgentlemanmatt7146 Thanks - no way, it was kind - theres been all kinds of arguments on here about it! And thanks for taking the time to say hi!
Nice useful video.
Thanks for the very kind comment Joshua!
Very good
Thank you
Thank youuu 🎉😂
Good luck with the gardening Gemma!
Thanks Dad 👍
Haha thanks Keith!
Thank you ! I just bought a strimmer and used it at one it got stuck on the wire and the lead snapped and I thought that was the end !!
Haha - yes, I would also think that too -- thanks for the very kind comment.
I call my small cordless on a 'grass trimmer', as it only trims the edges. My petrol one which is much bigger and I cannot use, I call the 'Strimmer'. But I live in France and there is only one word for it anyway. Thanks for your help. Jo in France 🇫🇷
Thanks for the kind message Jo! Good luck with the gardening in France!
There is a line release button at the base of the spool holder, you can see it working when the spool is off.
Thanks David!
There are cleats on the spool to hold the line in place till you put the reel back in. Once the reel is in place and the ends of the line fitted through the holes, you must push the line off the cleats, e.g. with the end of a screw driver.
Thanks Bhangra Fan!
My cover has broken for the spool underneath where is holds spool..
U think I can get a spare part
Kindly send me a link where I can buy it from thanks 😊
Hi I have just purchased this strimmer and used it today for the first time. Erk ! the stool line keeps retracting , I cannot get the spool to 'lock in' help ..what am I doing wrong.
There's a button to release the wire without removing top cover. Glad your not doing my grass. Have a nice day
Always thought it was strimmer when i was a kid begging my dad to let me use his, but having been shopping for one recently the manufacturers definitely all call them trimmers!
Thanks Chris!
Turns out strimmer is a trademark word, think its Black and Decker
Anyway thanks for the kind comment!
Strummer 😎👍
Haha - perfect!
Thank you very much I just have a question, do some strimmers have two line ends vs one end? I have just got the ART 30 and there are two ends of the line
Hi Freeman kids!
Oh... I've not heard of 2 ends! The end I have was tucked over... wonder if you have a dodgy lead... Hope you get it sorted!
On this trimmer the line is supposed to auto feed out when you release the trigger. You should be able to hear a click just before the spool stops spinning. This is the spool letting out more line.
Thanks for the kind comment - I don't know why but the auto feed has never seemed to work for us! Even with the official spool. Thanks again
It’s what you want to call it you own it
Too true! Thanks Barry!
Great video, but my art 23 easytrim looks different to yours underneath. Mine has a centre cylinder that pushes in towards the spool to lengthen the line. There's no arrow notches like you point out and can't budge the strimmer line out of the socket at all.
Thanks for the kind update Jordan, this is a really old video now!
It sounds like the line might have fused together in the spool - when ours gets hot, the line sort of melts onto itself, which is easy to fix if you can get into the spool.
So sorry I don't know to take yours apart to free the line - good luck and intrigued how that one would open.
I hadn't used mine for ages thought the cord had finished and after watching your video took it apart and found the cord had simply become intertwined in spoll - like when you buy a new ball of string - unthreaded, reassembled and bingo - must have happened when manufactured?- thanks
that's great -thanks for the kind comment Barry -- that might also explain some of the problems encountered by other comments on here. really appreciate the message!
It’s definitely a strimmer 👍🏼
Haha thanks Daniel!
Hi Now i have the spool ' locked in' but it only runs for a few seconds and there's no line again ! Thinking of returning to shop !
Hi Janet
Thanks for the question and so sorry to hear this - how frustrating
Forgive me for asking but is the spool in the right way round - not sure why it would be retracting...
😅🤣🙈. Brilliant. Thanks.
Thanks Harvey!
great video thanks. will it shred autumn leaves?
Hi thanks for the kind comment Carol.
Hmmm not sure - you can definitely use it if there are leaves on the grass but its cut is very fine so not sure it would do much actual shredding - hope this helps!!
@@DADDELIVERS Thanks for reply :)
Should there be a button for release line easily. EasyCutter 23 which sold in Turkey has a button.
That sounds great - thanks Ilhan!
Thanks to you I managed to find the spool and got the line out and started again but it cut off again !! is this normal or am I doing it wrong ?
Thanks for asking, Samantha. It depends how long it's lasting... They do wear down quite quickly, especially if you're edging around stones etc.
But you should be able to get at least a few minutes out of it like in the video. Is it cutting off quite quickly, or nearly instantly?
If it's happening as soon as you're using the strimmer, it might be a sign that it's not in right, or maybe the spool is the wrong way round?
Sorry I'm not much of an expert, but double checking the arrows on the spool and turning it around yourself by hand might help?
Good luck, and let me know if this doesn't work.
@@DADDELIVERS Hi, to be fair I was going over the edges of pave stones so perhaps that’s why it kept cutting off. I would get a couple of minutes I think between the lead cutting off.
I will try to turn the spool about. I have no idea what I am doing. CZcams videos do help! 😊
Thanks again.
Would the line automatically roll out from the spool or would you have to manually pull the line out when the line becomes short?
Hi thanks for the kind question - I think the line is meant to automatically feed out, but this has never seemed to happen on my trimmer! So i just manually pull the line out when needed.
Hope this helps
Looking to buy the ART 35 and some spare spool. The ones included and the official replacement are 1.6mm thick(like the one in the video), wouldn't something thicker like a 2.4mm or 2.7mm last a whole lot longer?
Hi Neversync
Thanks for the kind question
That sounds like a good idea - the hole seems big enough, but I'm not an expert and dont know what kind of strain that would put on the motor...
but love the sound of that - it would show the nettles and brambles what for...
This might be a great idea for another video!
Have you seen a 2.6mm line that fits or would it have to be fed on by hand?
@@DADDELIVERS I do not know, although someone on Amazon UK reviews suggested to put on 2.7mm thick wires since it would cut grass much better and last a whole lot longer. I might buy both a 2.4 and a 2.7mm set of wires and see how it goes once my trimmer arrives. It has mixed reviews almost everywhere I look, is it still going well for you?
@@0xEden. Sounds like a great plan.
Ours is going strong a few years on, but maybe we don't use it enough(!)
It's good on grass and stone, but like the idea of a thicker lead for the stuff I really need to trim - the nettles and brambles.
Would love to know how the 2.4mm goes!
My string only lasts 10 seconds n I have to stop n get more string out takes ages to do a decent amount . How do I wrap the string round so it lasts ?
Thanks Julie, that doesn't sound right - it might be worth getting a new cord... maybe the one you have is too loose or tight or something -- good luck
zziStrimmer is Black and Decker trade name. If it's not made by them then it's not a strimmer. cf Hoover, Biro, Jacuzzi etc.
Thanks for the kind comment Ashley - thought so!
Technically Bosch call it a "trimmer" but I always call it a "strimmer" because everyone knows what that is and it won't get confused with something else, like a hedge trimmer or something.
Did you know that strimmer nylon line dries out, so if you soak it in water for one day it becomes less brittle and will not break off so easily
STRIMMER. NOT trimmer. A trimmer is used for shaving cutting hair. Thank you for showing how to feed the thread.
Right! It's for hair! Too true. Thanks for the kind comment Christiane.
😩Why grass cutter cord goes inside as motor runs and I have to take it out often. It’s very painful. How to fix it?
Thanks for the kind question and sorry to hear this Azad -- it might be worth getting a new cord to see if it goes inside less?
Sorry, that's all I can think of - hope it gets better
🌱 dear Neil 🇬🇧🏡 Firma Bosch 🇩🇪 name it Trimmer 🌿 lg from Wien-Österreich 🌏🇪🇺🇦🇹 🍀 2024
Vielen Dank für Ihren netten Kommentar!
by the way I think it's called strimmer in the UK.
Thanks!
The string broke easily, any tips?
I am so sorry, I'm not sure I do - mine used to break a lot - is it the official line?
When I used cheaper ones I got through them much quicker...
To answer this eternal question. It's a matter of copyright. Same as brand names sellotape and blue - tac. The company stihl own the rights to "strimmer". They forced the industry to use the word "trimmer". If you keep saying "strimmer" online or commercial platform u should be paying royalties.
Noice 1
The spool compartment is jammed and won't open 😢
Ahh, I'm so sorry to hear about this Alison - this happens to me too, so I don't know if this is the same problem or solution...
What happens to jam mine is that the cord kind of fuses together, so the heat of it means the lead kind of sticks to itself.
What I use is a house door key or some tweezers, and try to prise off where I think the end of the lead is... Sometimes this is really tough, and I have to kind of jam the key under the lead and follow it along to where it's melted to break the sticking together.
Hope this makes sense or even works and hope I've understood the problem correctly -- good luck!!!
I have a Bosch art 23 with no arrows on the spool, how do I release it to reload the strimmer string?
Hi thanks for asking
I'm not an expert but are there 2 tabs on the spool you can squeeze in?
IT'S A RIMMER, 'COS IT GOES ROUND THE RIMM OF MY LAWN
Haha - thanks Philip - that's what it's called now!
Strimmer is UK and trimmer is US
Thanks Ali!
Also, eye protection 😢
It's a strimmer not a trimmer, whoever calls it a trimmer is wrong, wrong, WRONG.
Haha thanks Arun!
Why do people replace the entire cartridge instead of just buying line. Just too lazy to wind it on?
Also, I’ve never seen a strimmer that needed manual feeding like that - is it broken? Either they auto feed, or you press the base down on the ground and that releases a bit more?
You're going to 'strim ' the damn grass ; not 'trim ' it ..so ...STRIMMER
haha thanks MrDerek2404 Aspey!
For the last 18 months I've not let the lawn crew edge or use a weed eater in my back yard. czcams.com/users/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG I didn't like the fact that they just kept cutting the edge of the lawn further and further from the rock lining the flower beds and leaving bare ground. And the grass was trimmed or scalped several feet around trees, etc. It was a constant battle with them so I told them to just mow and no trimming. I have Zoysia grass so it grows pretty slow. Obviously after a while it could use some trimming. I'm in my 80's so I can't do much of it myself.Finally I decided that if I could find a lightweight battery powered trimmer I might be able to do some light trimming. I decided to buy the LST201 20V trimmer. And it works great for my needs. I have back yard with about 150' of flower beds and several trees to be trimmed. I can lightly trim the whole yard with a single charge! The grass I trimmed was only a few inches high but the trimmer was more powerful than I expected.
Great vid...plus your glasses are on your head incase you can't find them
Thanks - always!
(And I always forget that they are there.)

Hello, I want to buy one. I have a small garden 18cm, but I don't know which one is better
1-Bosch easygrasscut 26
280w
2-Mac allister mgt35025
350w
3- NMGT250 250W 23cm
I am waiting for your advice!🤍
Hi Ayat!
Oh my goodness - thanks for the kind question.
I'm absolutely not an expert and avoid cutting in the garden!
But, if it were me, - and this is just me - I'd go with the Bosch.
We just got a flymo trimmer and it's not nearly as good - it's heavier and shorter so you have to bend down.
Here's what I would look at to compare on those
-- the distance from the handle to the base, if it's short, you might be bending down which is horrible
-- the weight: the lighter one will make it more likely that you do more trimming!
Good luck with your choice and thanks again!
It’s definitely a strimmer 👍🏼
Thanks Daniel!
