just used the castle gate stores mentioned in an earlier post and had excellant customer service. We brought a new bump knob as the plastic on the old one was worn. would reccomend Castle gate to everyone.

Don't seem to be available for some S&J Strimmers -I've a S&J 500W Electric Grass trimmmer which needs a replacement Trimmer head- each time I attempted to enter my replacement needs on the site to which I was referred when I googled S&J I was disconnected from the site shortly after inputting S&J and the model number. Should have smelt a rat when the price in the Argos catalogue for a S&J tool seemed too good to be true -Bit sad when you can no longer trust a name that's had a good name since your childhood.Whoever owns the company now is probably trading on the goodwill built up when they were a reputable firm who took responsibility for their own products- will have to buy a few sheep!

lesley, March 2011

Hi Steve, try www.einhell.co.uk as they produce a lot of the petrol products that Argos have sold in recent years. They offer a great service and you can buy some parts on line.

The Spear & Jakson grass trimmer from Argos can be dismantled and you will need a 30mtr cutting line to replace existing.
Remove cutting gard, undue the locking screw( this will be tight and a pair of grips will be needed) remove locking srew philips.
Undue allen key bolt holding body of strimming head, pull head off. The bottom plastic bump screw can be unwound once the bottom cable holder has released from the top.
Once unscrewed undo line and replace with new, re-assemble as removed, the cost of a line is less than £10 to replace from spares £20.

The model number you have may relate to a model only sold through Argos, the same machine maybe sold elsewhere but with a different model code.

The grass trimmer head has failed on my SBC33N1, I'm considering returning it and buying a decent one from someone like Stihl or Husqvana!

David, September 2009

I was wondring if any body knows if a metel cutting head can be fitted to the SPJGT 30. I have an allotment and I allso have trouble with the bump head haveing to keep stopping to pull the twine out.

Peter, September 2009

jennifer, July 2009

Does anyone know where I can get the plastic bits for the starter ratchet mechanism for this model?

Stefan, July 2009

Recently bought a Spear & Jackson petrol grass trimmer from Argos. Cannot operate a curved shaft as well as a straight one. Contacted S & J enquiring if a straight lower shaft can be purchased and fitted. The answer was negative because they have no control over their trimmers as they are manufactured in China.

does anyone know if you can get attachments i.e hedge cutter etc or can you buy other brands to fit a spear&jackson as for parts i am strugling to get them myself it seems hardwork

ken, May 2009

we got the same problem, by any chance is yours a yellow headed trimmer, model number spjgt 30. try www.einhell.co.uk but we had problems getting through to them, i hope my advice has helped. thankyou.

MRS. Beeney, May 2009

I'm having the same problem!! It seems that this model was marketed exclusively through Argos with the S&J badging used (I guess) to make mugs like us think that it would be reliable!!

What bits do you need? The most common faults seem to be engine related - mine has cracked a piston ring and now the ignition seems to have packed up. However, if you need mechanical bits, I might be able to cannibalism mine and then there is at least one working machine around!

Rgds,
Tony
