Download the GL300 manual he

The parts diagram on page 10 shows which way the strimmer line is
wound.

Jeff

That's looking like anti-clockwise for that model?


... as it says in the manual on page 7.

J.


As you say ...

Thanks for all the help here!



I just wonder if some lubrication is needed?

Well for the thing to work the centre drum has to revolve for the line
to cut, and to release the line it also has to be able to move down and
up when you tap it on the ground.
If these things don't happen for you then you are in trouble.
