Greetings all,
I have an FS86 trimmer that I inherited from my Father-in-law. I assume it is about 15 years old, plus or minus. Just recently, the trimmer head gave out. Turns out it never had grease in the gear box. I am looking to repair this, and have two questions.
1. Can the trimmer head be taken apart? I have removed it from the main body with the two Torx bolts which clamp the head on. But can I get to the gears to replace them? I can't seem to find a way to remove the string housing plastic piece from the gear box. Any suggestions are appreciated.
2. My second question comes if question 1 is answered with "it is a one piece unit". If this is the case, does anyone know where I can get a new trimmer head unit?
Thank you for all of your help.
John Wilson
