I will start by saying I think dull man energy and projects are amazing. I wish I was one.

Anyway. I need some help please. I pulled my newish strimmer apart to remove something wrapped around the bit between the motor and feed. And I didn’t take a photo (stupid I know).

I have had a look online and cannot find a service manual or a repair/fix/assemble image. The standard manual is no help. It’s RY18LT33A

The main body is fine and most of it is straight forward. But I have a spring and a little black rubber thing. That popped out. Is anyone good with strimmers that can help suggest where they might go?

I’d like to learn to do this as I am making more of an effort to repair items.

    • yes I think so. the machine has a pivot where it edges and that seems to be all in the white section. The grey clips in the stock photo attach and tilt to a level in here in the red sq.

    When I push that it has a little give as per this pic. My mind is saying it goes here but I can’t figure where.

    Plus when I took it apart I thought it popped from behind the moto but I can see anywhere behind the moto it would fit. Or why as it seems to be a sealed barrel.

    It looks like it could be it to me. Seems like a weird spot for a spring lol probably why it's not intuitive to reassemble.
