Overview
This pre-wound replacement spool drops directly into compatible string trimmers, eliminating the hassle of hand-winding line. Worn or empty spools leave trimmer owners without a cutting edge mid-job. Keeping spare aftermarket spools on hand ensures minimal downtime and consistent line feed during yard work.
Key specifications
- Pre-wound replacement trimmer spool

Compatibility
This spool is designed for Craftsman string trimmers as listed above. Confirm the spool part number, line diameter, and trimmer model before ordering to ensure a proper fit.
Installation notes
Power off the trimmer and press the tabs on the spool housing to release the cover. Pull out the empty spool and clear any debris from the housing interior. Drop in the new spool, route the line through the eyelets, and snap the cover back on.
Common questions
Q: Will this N595044 replacement spool fit my Craftsman CMCST900D1 and CMCST900B trimmer, or is it only for the CMZST065/CMZST0653 spool system?
Yes, this spool is made to replace N595044 and is compatible with the Craftsman CMCST900D1 and CMCST900B, as well as trimmers that use the CMZST065 or CMZST0653 spool system. It’s also listed to fit models like CNCST910, CMCST915C1, CMEST913, CMEST900, and CMCK197D1, so if your trimmer uses that same spool type, it should install and feed correctly.
Q: How do I install this replacement spool on a Craftsman CMEST900 or CMCST915C1 without the line tangling?
Remove the spool cap, take out the old spool, and clear any grass or debris from the spool housing before installing the new one. When you drop in the replacement spool, make sure the line ends are routed through the eyelets correctly and that the spool is seated flat; that helps the auto-feed or bump-feed system work smoothly and prevents binding.
Q: Is this N595044 spool pre-wound, and are there any maintenance tips to help it last longer on my CMCK197M1 or CNCST910?
Yes, this style of replacement spool is intended as a ready-to-install pre-wound spool for the compatible Craftsman trimmers listed. To extend spool life, avoid edging directly against concrete for long periods, keep the spool housing clean, and check regularly that the line is feeding freely instead of forcing it when the head is clogged.
