    Question:
    I have a Poulan Pro 033 String trimmer. The flexable shaft broke off at the head end. Before I purchase another flex shaft I need to know how to get the broken one out. I looked for a c clip and can not find one. Any help would be appreciated

    Thanks for contacting Answer Army.  Unfortunately, you can not take the end of the shaft apart to remove any broken pieces.  One solution would be to replace both the flex shaft and the drive shaft.  This is because they are sold as separate parts.  Another solution would be to possibly replace the unit depending on the age of the unit and the cost.  Thank you again for using Answer Army.
