Why Does My Line Keep Breaking?

Why Does My Line Keep Breaking?

Common causes of line breakage include:

1. Incorrect line diameter
   • Using a line that is too thick or too thin for your model may cause improper feeding and increased snapping under load.
2. Contact with hard surfaces
   • Cutting against concrete, brick, fences, or other hard objects wears down the line quickly.
   • Friction and stress from hard surfaces cause premature line breakage.
3. Worn or damaged spool components
   • Check for cracked spools, worn eyelets, or faulty bump mechanisms.
   • Damaged components can lead to inconsistent line feed and increased snapping.

How to Reduce Breakage:

• Use the recommended line size for your specific tool.
• Inspect and maintain all spool parts regularly.
• Avoid unnecessary contact with hard surfaces.

Tip: Proper line selection and careful trimming technique can significantly extend the life of your trimmer line.
