You will want to visit a local authorized service center in order to get the unit repaired if this were to happen. However if the product is less than 30 days old you can get full refund on the product.Hope this helps.

Your best bet is to seek out a service center for Homelite closest to you Sudbury. Failing that, the Home Depot can order parts for you as well. But if the part is too old for the distributor that the Home Depot orders from, then the service center would be your best bet.

Replacement heads and line should be on display in the Seasonal area at the Depot. As far as a replacement shield, a service center would be your best bet for fast service, or order the part through them.

Does this weed eater have a clutch or idle
I'm just wondering if I don't hold the trigger will the string still spin?

It is a clutched trimmer. Meaning when you are not pulling the throttle the head will not spin. This allows for easier start up and safer operation. Hope this helps.

Question
How do I get the cap off!
I bought this weedeater last year and was frustrated that I could not get the cap off. It started up again this year, but still can't get the cap off. I'm frustrated and ready to go spend more money on a more reputable brand if I can't figure out how to get the cap off.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Our ratio is 50:1. Gas to oil. I suggest that you keep the little container you received when the unit was unpacked and use that as a measuring cup to to 5 L of fuel. Use 2 cyle oil with a gas stabilizer in it

If you just got it, then take it back to the store and see if the folks in Tool Rental can start it. If not, then see what the store can do or if past 30 days take it to a service center as you are under warranty at this point.
