Homelite

The following instructions and recommendations are based on the data gathered through our 15+ years in the market. We do our best to list most brands and as many models as possible. We also try to make sure the information provided is accurate but please note, manufacturers can make running changes that we are not aware of until reported by a customer. We do our best to list those exceptions but keep in mind this is just a guide and the best way to troubleshoot an installation is to interact with a Technical Support Specialist either over the phone or via e-mail.

Homelite are really light trimmers. Due to the smaller engines, only a few of our GrassGator heads will fit this brand.

Most trimmers follow the curved shaft instructions even if the model is a straight shaft.

The GrassGator kit comes with the bolt required for most models.

Recommended Heads

The only heads we recommend for Homelite are models: 3600, 5600 , 5620 or 8010.

Installation Instructions

Most Homelite follow the curved shaft instructions even if the model is straight a shaft.

• Some models built between 2007 and 2012 have a small spool housing that's too small to accommodate the spacer cup included in the kit. If that's the case you can request a special adapter kit by e-mail.
• Some newer models like the XT260 have a clip instead of a threaded bump knob, in those cases follow the straight shaft instructions.

If you need additional information or would like to help us keep our database up to date by reporting a successful installation on a particular make and model, please Contact Us.
