This reel is a genuine MTD replacement part for a lawn trimmer, which is designed to cut grass, shrubs, bushes, and weeds. The function of a reel in a lawn trimmer is to collect the line in the reel housing and then unspool the line from the housing while the lawn trimmer is in use. Within the lifespan of a lawn trimmer, it is likely that the reel will suffer some damage. This might result in issues with unspooling the line, rendering the lawn trimmer impossible to use. Damage to the reel might occur as a result of general wear and tear, overuse, exposure to the elements, or collision with the ground or another object; additionally, the reel could suffer from gradual deterioration in the form of anything from small cuts and nicks to serious piercings and erosion. If the reel is damaged to the point that the lawn trimmer is unusable, the reel should be removed and replaced immediately. Remember to always wear gloves when handling, repairing, and operating outdoor equipment. This reel is compatible with the following brands: MTD and Craftsman. This part sold individually.

Bump head trimmers use the impulse of a bump against the earth to release a measured amount of cutting twine from the spool. In actual use, this happens so quickly that an observer may not realize the user has bumped for more twine and resumed trimming. A simple but absolutely necessary piece of this procedure is the bump head spring that sits beneath the plastic bump cover and the cutting head. The spring signals the cutting head to release twine. While this system functions quite well and is the default method used by most grass trimmers, it should be noted that the spring can fail for a couple of reasons. First is simple overuse, revealed when the spring doesn't produce enough bounce back to cause the spool to release twine. This is the result of constant bumping. A second problem that arises is the stress the spring undergoes when twice spools are constantly changed. It is often the case that springs are incorrectly placed and bent in the process. When replacing the spring, it's essential to use one like this one, an OEM certified replacement that identically matches the original. This spring is compatible with Craftsman, Bolen, and Troy-Bilt trimmers.
The inner spool reel is a genuine replacement part for select models of string trimmers. The inner reel is where the string for the trimmer is wound. Once the string has been wound around the reel, it is attached to the outer spool assembly and then threaded onto the trimmer and secured in place.

With a genuine OEM part, owners can guarantee an exact fit for their compatible machines.

Disengage the engine before working on trimmers and always wear eye and hand protection for added safety. This inner reel is made of durable plastic and sold as a single unit. Other components will need to be purchased separately.
A bump head knob is a part of a string trimmer. When the trimmer is tapped against the ground or any hard surface, it will let out more line.
