Husqvarna 215iL, string hid in the trimmer head

Hello

I have the following problem with my trimmer Husqvarana 215iL. The
trimmer string entirely hid in the head and I can not get it out (see
the picture attached). Would appreciate any ideas on how to deal with it. Thanx

@vladislavmavrin This should be an easy fix by just following the string replacement procedure, which can be found on the 3rd last page of the manual.

Hi Dany, thank you for your reply.

The manual says how to insert a new string if the trimmer does not have any, and no information on how to take the one which is already inside. The problem is that I can not open the head (neither I am sure whether it could be opened as there is no info on it).

@vladislavmavrin I can't really see from your picture, but this video may help you open the head!

Well, I brought it to the store, they told me that this particular model has this issue and there is nothing you can do about it. If yours is still under guarantee, I would return it. If not, ask the stuff in the store to show how to open it, it could be opened with the instruments and applying some force. To tell the long story short, this is a model with a very faulty design and the manual is useless
