This machine has a flexi drive shaft ( like a big speedo cable ) there are a number of things to check, make sure the gearbox is pushed fully onto the tube, slacken the pinch screws and twist and push the gearbox fully on, check the tube is fully into the engine housing, slacken the pinch screws and push the tube fully in, failing this the flexi drive may damaged, remove the gear box, pull the flexi drive out and check the condition of the square ends.

IT STARTS BUT TRIMMER PART WONT TURN

Disconnect the two halves of the shaft. It should be pretty easy. Inspect the drive cable to make sure it hasnt snapped. Also make sure the cable is inserted into the female half. Its a square shaped cable that spins and drives the string trimmer head.

How do I adjust the throttle cable on a C430 String Trimmer? When I depress the throttle cable, the linkage on the carburetor only moves about 1/16 inch and will barely turn the cutting head.

The throttle cables aren't adjustable. Make sure the other end is on the trigger correctly and that it is routed through the handle and the engine cover correctly. Also, make sure the throttle shaft and throttle plate (inside carb) are free and easy in their movement with the throttle cable off. The engine idle speed adjusting screw may be in too far also. Back it all the way out and then back in with the throttle closed Once the speed screw touches the throttle lever (what you hook cable into) on the shaft, give it about 2 turns in. This is about all you can do. If the cable is stretched badly (rare), it would need to be replaced.
