FAQs
What models is this Flymo strimmer line compatible with?
This FLY029 spool and line is specifically designed for the Flymo Power Trim 500 and Flymo Power Trim 700 grass trimmer models.
How does the double autofeed mechanism work?
The double autofeed system automatically advances the trimmer line as it wears down, ensuring a continuous cutting length without manual intervention.
How do I know when to replace the spool?
You should replace the spool when the existing line is completely used up, or if the spool itself becomes damaged or the line feed mechanism stops working effectively.
Can I use this line with other brands of strimmers?
No, this is a genuine Flymo part and is designed specifically for compatible Flymo grass trimmers. Using it with other brands may result in poor performance or damage.
What should I do before replacing the spool?
Always disconnect the trimmer from its power source (unplug or remove the battery) before attempting to replace the spool and line for safety.
Is this a pre-wound spool?
Yes, the FLY029 is a replacement spool that comes with the line pre-wound and ready for installation.
Troubleshooting
Trimmer line not feeding
Ensure the spool is correctly installed and the line is properly threaded through the guide holes. Check that the line is not tangled or knotted on the spool. Make sure the autofeed mechanism is not obstructed.
Line breaks frequently
Verify you are using the correct line thickness for your trimmer model. Ensure the trimmer is not being used on excessively hard surfaces like concrete, which can rapidly wear down the line. Check for any damage to the trimmer head's cutting guard.
Spool difficult to install
Confirm that you have the correct FLY029 spool for your Flymo Power Trim 500 or 700 model. Ensure no debris is present in the spool housing that could prevent proper seating. Align the spool carefully with the housing guides.
