With an auto feed system, the trimmer will release more line whenever it starts to run short, based on an advanced internal system. The majority of models will have some kind of component that gauges the current length of the line and then releases more by taking advantage of the spinning taking place with the head.
Why is my Worx trimmer not working?
Check the condition of the cover, the spool and the line. If the cover or spool are broken, the head may not spin. If the line is improperly wound, the head won’t spin and the line won’t come out. Leave all motor repairs to a professional due to the high voltage contained inside the motor.
What size line does the Worx trimmer use?

Why does my trimmer line keep coming out?
If this cap is broken or worn out over time, it can malfunction, causing too much line to feed out when you bump it.
