Most trimmers have refill spools available at your local big box or hardware store. They come with directions. Basically, you unplug the trimmer, pop out the old spool and replace it with the new.
Read the owners manual in the link below. It will explain how to restring the trimmer.
Cut two pieces of trimmer line about 6-8 ft long. Push the line into the opening in the spool until it comes out of the bottom of the spool. Place the end of the line into the small hole adjacent to the opening where the line came out of the spool. Pull the line tight while holding your finger on the line in the hole. Do this for both sides and then wind the spool in the reverse direction to fill the spool. Pull on the line occasionally to make sure the line is not binding up in the spool. There are spools that will take one single long line, where the center of the line is attached to a notch (or similar) in the center of the spool and then wound with one line on each side of the spool. Then, the end of each line is threaded through each hole in the trimmer head. It would be best if you consulted a user's manual.

Take the spool off the the machine. By that I mean the part that contains the cutting line. There will be a spring that drives the spool. Get a pair of pliers and gently pull on it. If it comes out of the shaft it is probably broken or it came loose. If that does not solve the problem look at the spool where the nut is located make sure its there and that the housing is not wallowed out. If so buy a new spool.
