Troubleshooting your MTD electric line trimmer when it won't run

  • Check the power supply. Make sure that the electrical outlet that you're using to power the trimmer is good. Plug a different item into the outlet plug to check for power. Reset the house circuit breaker for the outlet if it's dead.
  • Check the extension cord for damage. Replace or repair broken wires in the extension cord if it's damaged.
  • Unplug the line trimmer and check the power cord wiring connections to the trigger switch. Reconnect any loose wires and repair any broken wires.
  • With the line trimmer still unplugged, check the wiring connections between the trigger switch and the motor. Reconnect any loose wires and repair any broken wires.
  • If all wiring connections are okay, you may need to replace the trigger switch or the motor.

Avoiding excessive cutting line usage in your MTD electric line trimmer

  • Always use the cutting line size that is recommended for your line trimmer. Using cutting line with a smaller diameter than recommended can cause excessive line usage.
  • Carefully follow the owner's manual instructions to properly wind line around the line spool and route the line through the cutting head to avoid excessive line usage.
  • Don't crowd the cutting line against the ground or other objects such as tree trunks or edging when trimming. Cut grass using the tip of the cutting line.
  • Examine the cutting head and spool before each use of the line trimmer. Replace any worn or damaged parts before using the line trimmer.
