SOURCE: homelite st-175g trimmer

This is for a duel line trimmer. I hope this will help.

Cut two separate pieces of string, about 7 ft. each.

Stick the end of the line in the hole on the inside of spool.

Wind clockwise onto spool, putting the line that is closest to the ground on first.

Once you have winded this piece on, lock the last 4 inches of line through the slits on spool.

Repeat process for second piece of line, locking the last 4 inches in slot opposite the other locked in piece.

Put the spool on the trimmer, feeding the end of lines through either hole on trimmer.

Before you push the spool all the way on, pull the strings out of the locked position. Put cap on and GO CRAZY!

SOURCE: Can't figure out how to replace the trimmer line

Throw the trimmer spool in the garbage and get a Gator head. It will be the best $20.00 you ever spent.

Does a homelite st-175g have a clutch?

I couldn't find a parts breakdown for your exact model, but on the ST-185, the clutch is optional. If you can remove the handle from the front engine cover (probably 4 Torx screws) and look inside, there would be a round 4" or so metal drum with the clutch inside right near the front of the cover. It is not hard to spot. Post back if needed.

Homelite trimmer UT20832

The gap on my 18 year old Homelite ST-185 is 0.025. Since they are still using simple and reliable magnetos, yours should be the same.
