call or email the company itself. according to my understanding, they'll repair or replace it for you. there is a life guarantee.

The battery came with the trimmer so I don't know the cost of a replacement. I did read somewhere that it was $99 for a new battery. Frankly, I think it would probably be cheaper to buy a whole new unit especially if it were on sale.

It's very easy you just use the tools that came with the trimmer. Make sure you purchase the proper blade that fits the trimmer.

This seems to be a common issue with this trimmer. I had the same problem. I contacted Amazon and they gave me a full refund for my purchase.

I've never taken it apart. I'm not sure if you can or not. After about 8 months mine went kind of dull and wasnt cutting the hair as well anymore, so I replaced the whole thing with a new one. There might be a way to change the blades but at $8 I thought it was easier to just replace the whole thing.

I believe you will need to send the machine in to the manufacturer to have this serviced. The best thing would be to contact the seller you purchased the item from, and they will be able to provide you with the necessary steps and contact info for repairs.

John,How do get the trim line to come out of your trimmer's head? Mine requires me to pull the trigger 20 times each time I want to advance it or I have to do it manually.

You have to pop off the orange cap that is on the bottom of the trimmer. You just press in both sides for the cap, replace string and then pop it back on

There's not many ways you could do that. There are probably some sort of plastic repair kits out there but you would be better off googling that then asking here. Perhaps hobby shops?

Keep them clean with the dust brush to remove hairs and make sure the blades are lubricated with the enclosed oil and these trimmers will last quite long with average use. The pair I bought lasted 2 years --- we are using them daily in a salon environment.

I suggest before you order this that you call Greenworks at 1-888-9099-6757 to make sure that there is an authorized shop in your area that will service your trimmer during the warranty period. Since I live in Hawaii, when I checked with Greenworks, there is no authorized shop on the island of Oahu. Although the Greenworks representative said I would return it to Amazon if the battery or trimmer failed within their respective warranty periods, Amazon's response to this was that I can only return it to Amazon during the first 30 days of my purchase. After that, I would have to send it to a nearest authorized service center which I'm assuming would be on the west coast. So I'll see if it's available through the local Home Depot. I'd rather pay more but be able to return it to Home Depot if I have any problems with the battery or trimmer.

I've been working in IT for 20 years, and I've never heard that. If it wears out, you can replace it.

The quick answer is "easily."Remove the old blade, line up the star pattern on the blade with the spline, and reinstall. Be sure to install with the "fingers" on the blade facing up! ☺

I also liked the total trimmer. I looked every where for a battery but could not find one that would fit. Took it to a local battery company and they sent it off and replaced the inside battery's. It lasted only for a short time.. I bought a new total trimmer from Amazon. When that battery goes bad I will be out of luck...You can take the battery apart and maybe find some one that can replace the one's in the shell ..I really wish they had not gone out of business as I thought it was a great tool.. Good luck..

I had my handyman trim it to size. I like being able to just rinse it out and replace it. saves money.

If you are using the pre-rolled spools its pretty easy. Put the end of the trimmer string thru the hole in the side of the spool housing, slip the spool into the housing making sure the right side is up. (Will say on spool). Replace the cap. Push button on side of hoiding and release enough string to reach cutting blade and that's it.

Well, I'm sure what you could do first is contact Wahl and see if they have a replacement blade they could send you and you could change it yourself, or contact Wahl and mail in your trimmer and have them do it for you.
