Always unplug it if its electric or pull the contact wire off the spark plug if it's gas. Make sure you don't get whipped by accidently turning the power on...it will hurt you.Next, remove the screw that holds the spool onto the unit. The spool is the piece that you will refill with new line. If you have tough weeds,buy a thicker line...it lasts longer. Spool according to the arrows on the plastic casing. Reinsert onto weed whacker. Tighten screw. Reinstall the wire onto the spark plug or plug unit back into the cord. Tamp down on the ground to feed wire (most weed whackers are made like this to advance the string). Happy weed whacking. Always use the guard unless you do this professionally. Use caution if removing the guard and using it.You can use it as an edger though with the guard removed.ALWAYS wear safety glasses when using power equipment.
It is not too difficult -- you have to buy a new spool of the plastic line, and then carefully remove the old one. Then you pull out a bit of the new spool so it sticks out past the opening (about two inches will do) and snap the new spool in.
Pull the small knob which contains the string holder straight out past the spring clip which holds it in. Load the spool with new line and feed it thru the feed hole, reverse the procedure to put the string holder back past the spring holder.

1. Remove shield.
2. Firmly pull on the tap button. The tap button is on the very bottom and is what you tap on the ground to get new line.
3. Put the new line in with the direction of the arrows on the spool.
4. Put the line in the notch. This is the part that goes out in four directions, two of them have notches.
5. Align the notch with the exit hole and snap back into place. Make sure you fed some line through the exit hole in the hub.
6. Pull on the line to release it from the notch or it will not work properly. http://72.3.225.179/manuals/545117526e.pdf
To reload the string on a Stihl weed eater, press down on the head while turning to the left at the same time. When you feel it click, you can remove the old head and put the new one on. You can then press and turn to the right,
Simply pull the spool off. Sounds too easy, I know. I just spent 10 minutes cursing and bleeding trying to push and twist the dang thing looks. Then I found the manual at http://72.3.225.179/manuals/545117522e.pdf and cursed some more.
There are six different cutting attachments available for the FS-55. The instructions for them can be found at Stihl at the link below.

Choosing the right weed eater is important for the health of your lawn or garden. This article provides you with a guide on how to purchase the best weed eater.Types of weed eatersBefore knowing which weed eater to purchase, understand the different types available, as there are several. First, there are electric weed eaters. These are by far the most common type of weed eater. They start easily and are fairly quiet. Of course, you need to have an electrical outlet nearby (or a long extension cord). The second type of weed eater is a battery operated option. Unlike the electric weed eater, battery operated ones do not require an outlet. Unfortunately, batteries tend to die in the middle of operation, so you need extra ones on hand. The last kind of weed eater is a gasoline powered one. These are more portable than electric weed eaters, and handle tough projects easily. Unfortunately, they are really loud.Type of projectGenerally, for typical lawn use, most people can settle for low horse power when purchasing a weed eater, since their grass is thin and easily manageable. Obviously, for thicker, more difficult projects, a weed eater with more horse power is necessary.Knowing the type of project is essential to knowing which weed eater works best for you. BrandsThe brand is important for weed eaters. Stihl weed eaters consistently get top-notch reviews for all types of uses. They generally last for years, are lightweight and easy to reload. Another type that is lightweight and easy to use most of the time is Husqvarna, although they are not as durable as Stihls.There is a lot of variety out there when it comes to weed eaters. Knowing what type of weed eater you need and what type of projects you have, is essential for knowing what type of weed eater to buy.
