Do any of the non-breakable trimming heads fit this unit? I'm having the same 'too much spool used" issues.

I don't think so. I didn't find anything at Home Depot that would fit; plus I couldn't figure out how to get the disc where the spool sits off of the shaft. I think this is like printers and ink: they will sell you the printer cheaper than you can replace the ink.

I did not find any at Home Depot. The B&D; design appears different from most others.This trimmer head is a very poor design I would not buy it. I believe lots of people are upset with this product.I had to jury rig the trimmer. Got rid of the spool and attached a line with a hose clamp to the center post and put the cap back on.It works but vibrates allot. But works for the little I use it.

Yep. It's light years ahead of the early ones, tho. I put mine through some heavy work and it never failed to feed properly.As long as the head is spooled correctly there should be zero issues. OR, you could opt for an after-market head that accepts different trimmer systems w/fixed "grass blades".

Looks, Identical. I think you need Replacement Spool # 90564281. http://www.amazon.com/Black-Decker-Trimmer-Replacement-90564281/dp/B009KRF4FU

Sorry I do not know if the replacement heads will work on you model. I suggest you contact Phillips Norelco with this question.

I have not had this problem so really can't help you. However, Siah Brown's answer seems logical to me. If your problem continues, I would contact the company to see what they suggest. I have this B&D; trimmer plus their chain saw and alligator saw....love all three!

The model no of the spool that I purchased for it is 88512. I am sorry I bought the trimmer though, because it is impossible for me to install a new spool on it. Because it is a dual spool, one line goes one way and the other goes the other way. I just had my 55 y.o.son try to do it for me and he could not do it either. So now I have a trimmer and 2 spools that I can't use. Excuse the venting. You didn't ask how I liked it, but had to get it out.

Same, I haven't needed replacement yet either - in the past, with older models, I've purchased them at Target, Walmart, etc. or I would imagine you can find them on Amazon? Perhaps just Google in the Norelco model number and you should see some results for replacement heads.

They are but the spools I got would not feed properly , had to keep opening spool to feed trimmer

I think your trimmer is a curved shaft trimmer so it might not. Considering how easy it is to return items to Amazon and how adaptable this head is, it's probably worth the risk to buy it.

Trimmer line is included. Purchasing a new spool is not necessary, unless you prefer the convenience of a pre-threaded refill. I was able to refill the existing spool with .065" (1,65mm) trim line, found at any hardware store, for much less money than a refill spool. The instructions provided illustrate how to replace either the spool, or just refill the line.

Joe, Not that I know of, I drilled four 3/8" holes in my spinner disc and use tempered 8"x 1/8" metal instead of the trimmer line that came with the Swisher unit. These metal lines work great and I got them from my local small engine repair shop, I do not know where he got them from.

You can always rewind your own spools vs. buying new spools. My advice: don't buy this product. Trust me. Buy an electric or gas powered trimmer instead.

Not according to the chart that STIHLusa.com provides. Go to http://www.stihlusa.com/products/trimmers-and-brushcutters/accessories/trimmer-heads-and-blades/ ad select trimmer heads and blades. I own a different model number but I reference this before purchasing anything

I changed my spool for the first time last week. I've had the trimmer for two years. Granted, I have a very small yard, but I never imagined it would last that long. A 3-pack was pretty reasonable at Lowes.

Looking on line and the shape of the replacement heads, I don't believe they are compatible.

I checked with Tekton on this and they do not offer replacement heads, but said that the thread on their heads is a common one and that other brands of replacement heads are available that will fit. I have not tried this myself, but did find replacement heads that appear similar, available from Amazon and other web sites.
