There is one out hole on the trimmer. I started the string in the small hole on the orange spool and spun it until the spool was full leaving about 5 inches. I pulled the left over string into the notch and then out the trimmer hole. I slid the spool (notches side first) over the bump/tap button, it fit nicely. There are some grooved teeth on the spool inner hole and on the bump/tap button. I hear a snap and I can turn the spool, but it doens't seem to lock in place. I can reach in and still pull it out. If I try to start the device, the spool kicks right out. Is there a 3rd piece that is needed to lock this in place?
