Toro 8 inch cut home duty trimmer
You have to hold in the two tabs at top of spool assembly
SOURCE: How do you remove the line spool cap on a toro
There are 2 tabs, 1 on each side of the cap. You need to press these in at the same time to pull the cap off.
SOURCE: I have a Toro 12 inch Toro Electric trimmer and I can't get the spool off to change. Any solution?
I am having the same problem - the spool should just come off by turning it counter-clockwise but is completely stuck. This model does not have any tabs that need to be pushed in to get the spool off. Very frustrating!

Your Toro electric trimmer parts are readily available through www.partstree.com . However, to avoid having to pay $10 in shipping for a $5 part, you should try to find your local Toro dealer. They probably have the part in stock. Go to www.toro.com and search on the dealer/distributor locator to find your closest dealer.
You will need to know the model number (5 digit) and serial number for your trimmer. These can be located on a small sticker on the trimmer.
Good luck!
1.Twist the cap off counterclockwise.
2. Remove the cap and spool.
Note: If the spring falls off, install it before installing the spool.
3. Thoroughly clean the cutting head and cap and inspect them for anydamaged or worn parts.

I put a flat head screwdriver into one of the two square openings (that snap it into place) and turn the screwdriver gently. The cap pops off easily.
