ABSTRACT:
A flexible line trimmer for cutting vegetation having a rotary drive for swinging a nylon line, and a device for feeding out additional line while rotating. A housing with an actuator button on its bottom is carried by the drive shaft. A spool having drive teeth formed on one side is carried in the housing. An actuator is mounted reciprocally in the housing and has a pin for engaging the drive teeth to cause the spool to rotate with the housing. An actuator shaft extends between the button and the actuator for disengaging the pin when the button is depressed. Guide teeth on the spool guide the pin back into engagement with the next drive tooth, incrementingly advancing the line.
