Grasshog my Grasshog string whipper snipper not automatically feed string like it suppose to

It's annoying I know, but there should be a little notch in the spool, wind the string evenly round one groove. notch it, then do the same on the other groove but in the opposite direction. Hope this helps.

Hi there,

The line may be on backwards or has developed a knot. Debris may have worked its way inside the bump head preventing it from functioning.

After you replaced your string in the trimmer and fed it through the hole in the plastic casing in which the spool fits into, did you pull the string until you hear a click? The click locks the string in, then you can bump and feed as usual. Otherwise it won't feed normally.

243215-00 is the part number for the Grasshog's battery pack, but that part is now obsolete. However, you can get the internal battery (part #243213-00 )itself from Amazon for $35.99:

The lower unit will rotate 180 degrees from the handle and then lock, with the metal guide pointing down.

Go to smalleng.com they have video on how to do what you need. Check it out awesome website!

The push lock on the string feeder Is sticking. Pull it off, clean it out and put it back on.

good luck

You have the string wound the wrong way on the spool.
