TB70ss Trimmer runs but does not turn the string

Remove the angle drive gearbox near the string head and spin it to see if everything is moving properly. You may have stripped the gears out of it.

It sounds like you are winding the line in the wrong direction. You should wind the line in the opposite direction that the head spins during operation.

Good Luck!

The head on my troybuilt weedeater TB70SS stopped spinning at higher RPMs. It will spin at real low RPMs. Help please?

if it is cable driven, if the shaft is curved it a cable , the cable is broken.
if it is a straight shaft with a gear box the gears are probably stripped

Spark plug wont tighten in engine

Sounds as if you have stripped the threads on the head; NOT GOOD! You will probably need to buy a new head for your trimmer.

Good Luck,

Jim
