Removing the head of a weed wacker is a necessary task for maintenance and repairs. The weed wacker head is the part that holds the trimmer line, and it can become worn or damaged over time. To remove the head, you will need a wrench or socket set.
First, identify the type of weed wacker head you have. There are two main types: bump-feed heads and fixed-line heads. Bump-feed heads are the most common type, and they release new trimmer line when you tap the head on the ground. Fixed-line heads require you to manually wind new trimmer line onto the spool.
