Hi, I’m Mark from eReplacementParts.com. In this video I’m going to show you how to replace the blade assembly on a Ryobi trimmer. The blade assembly mounts to the cutter-head guard on your trimmer. Its purpose is to cut the trimmer line to the proper length. If the guard is very dull or missing, the trimmer line will actually begin to damage the plastic cutter-head guard. Replacing the blade assembly is easy to do and I’m going to show you how. The blade assembly, as well as many other parts, can be found on our website. Let’s get started.

We’ll begin by removing the old blade from the guard. You’ll notice that, from the factory, the blade is riveted to the guard. The new blade kit includes screws and nuts to secure it, so to remove the old blade, we need to drill out these rivets. I’ll start with a center punch. And I just want to punch a starter location for my drill bit. With the rivets dimpled, now we use a drill and a drill bit to drill out the head of the rivet.

Now, I’m going to switch to a larger drill bit to finish the rivets off. Now, I’ll push the rivets through the plastic guard. Now, I’ll install the new blade. I’ll install it with the bevel facing the trimmer head, then I’ll insert the screws through the blade. I want the screws to come from the inside, or the side closest to the trimmer head, so that it’s fairly flush. Then, I’ll install the lock nuts on the opposite side. Now, I’ll tighten up the lock nuts using a screwdriver and a socket wrench.

And that’s all it takes to replace the blade assembly on your Ryobi trimmer. If you found this video helpful, be sure to give us a thumbs-up, and leave a comment.
