ABSTRACT:
A weed cutter employing a revolving flexible non-metallic line as a cutting member is provided with means for mechanically feeding out additional line to replace lengths broken during operation of the cutter. A rotatable spool is provided for storing extra line in a coiled configuration, with the unwound portion being threaded into and through a hollow motor shaft, and through a channel in the rotatable head of the cutter to an exit aperture at its periphery. A control mechanism is further provided whereby the spool may be rotated to feed out preselected increments of line when desired, and to oppose rotation of the spool when not desired so as to prevent inadvertent unreeling of cutting line.
