How do you replace the white lever, and how do you know if it is broken?
SOURCE: Installing new line on my string grass trimmer
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.

The entire cap does not come off. You push the buttons in on each side and only the very top of the cap comes off.

What I've found it to be is usually this - the line itself has tightened inside the spool in a way that has kinda "kinked" it - gotten off the desired spiral spooling we so carefully prepared. So just opened it up, un-wind it a bit, re-wind again and move on ... no big deal, but yes it is frustrating ...

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