DIY Weed Eater Repair: How to Replace the Back Pull String

What happens here

Under the presenter's supervision, the son begins to use the impact driver with the Allen bit to unscrew the three bolts. The presenter provides clear instructions and warnings, specifically emphasizing the importance of ensuring the bit fits 'snug' into the bolt head to avoid stripping it. The video shows the son carefully applying pressure and starting to remove the bolts. The video cuts off while the son is in the process of unscrewing these bolts.

Goal: Remove the bolts securing the recoil starter assembly
