How do you replace string on craftsman weedeater model 358.795550?

Unplug the weedeater from electrical source. Turn the weedeater upside down and remove the black knob on the bottom. If the black knob won't come off you can carefully use a large pipe wrench and turn it counter clockwise to loosen it. Be careful not to lose the slotted metal ring between the black knob and the trimmer spool. Remove the spool and clean it off. There is an arrow showing you where to insert the string. Start pushing the line into the spool going counter clock wise. Be sure to use only .065 ROUND string. Put the spool back on the spindle yellow side up. Hold the slotted metal ring with the slot facing up. Insert the string into the bottom of the ring and put the ring in the recessed circle on the spool, (yellow side). Pull the string over the slot and hold it there. Screw the black knob back onto the spindle, making sure the string is in the slot on the metal ring. Tighten the knob. You are now ready to go.
