Have a Ryobi-RLT-1000. Great trimmer but serious problem with the bump head. It seems to weld itself to the spool and can't get it off.

Only had it a short while now and every time it is a battle to get it off. Normally I would hold on to the spool with both hands and my partner would then unscrew the cap using a pipe wrench. Frustratingly today, we can't get it off at all. Yes, we are turning it anti-clockwise. And I would only use my hand to tighten it. The "welding" seem to take place during operation. Please help!

Kobalt electric trimmer bump head spring

Finding the exact spring size or part number for a Kobalt electric trimmer's bump head might be challenging without manufacturer specifications. You could try reaching out to Kobalt's customer support or looking for online forums or communities where other users might have shared information about compatible springs. If you're unable to find the specific spring, visiting a local hardware store or home improvement center might help you find a suitable replacement by comparing sizes and types with the help of the store staff.

How do I remove right fender on 1980's G20 van. It seems to be welded.

I don't know the model but a great many modern monocoque body designs derive weight-saving, strength and rigidity from all-welded panels including the wing, fender, mudguard.

Some are still bolted and some are fixed with a combination of bolts and welds.
Today there are a number of specialised drill bits that will neatly remove spot welds so the panel can be reused or special chisels designed to cut spot welds if the panel is not to be reused.

Just how do you pull out more line when it's broken off. I'm a girl.

The feed bump located on the bottom of the unit is the portion of the head that you tap on the ground to feed more trimmer line as you are trimming.

Rear dampeners through bolts are stripped

The threads or the head off the bolt? none the less, try to find a way to cut the bolt but if the head is stripped you can weld a nut and ratchet it out (works for when the bolt itself snaps) maybe a combo off cutting off the end and putting a new nut and weld it to shaft to get it out
