Restore reliable trimming performance to your Murray M2560 string trimmer with genuine OEM replacement parts from Repair Clinic. The M2560 uses a bump-feed trimmer head as its standard cutting attachment; this head design requires matching the replacement assembly precisely by model, since bump-feed mechanisms vary in spool capacity and line diameter capacity across different Murray trimmer models even when they appear visually similar. The M2560 supports several Murray attachments through a compatible coupling system; verify specific attachment compatibility using your model number before purchasing accessories. Parts most frequently replaced include the trimmer head assembly, starter recoil spring, carburetor, fuel line and filter kit, and spark plug.

Murray M2560 Bump-Feed Platform: Trimmer Head Matching and Attachment Compatibility
The Murray M2560 uses a bump-feed trimmer head as its standard cutting attachment, available as a complete assembly for quick replacement; always match the replacement head by exact model number to ensure compatibility, since bump-feed head designs vary in spool capacity, line diameter rating, and mounting thread specifications even among visually similar Murray trimmer models. The M2560 supports several Murray attachments; check product specifications or use the model number to verify compatibility before purchasing, since not all Murray accessories use the same coupling standard across the brand’s product range. The M2560 carburetor is sensitive to ethanol-blend fuel varnish during off-season storage. For repair guidance, visit the Murray trimmer repair help section.
M2560 Repairs: Diagnostic Sequences and Component Service
Murray M2560 Trimmer Head Matching and Replacement
The M2560 uses a bump-feed trimmer head, available as a complete assembly for quick replacement. Always match by model to ensure compatibility, since the bump-feed mechanism’s spool capacity and line diameter rating are specific to this model’s head design.
M2560 Carburetor Varnish and Post-Storage Starting Failure
The M2560 carburetor is the primary diagnostic target for post-storage starting failure. Ethanol-blend fuel deposits varnish on the diaphragm or float bowl passages during storage. Drain the fuel system before storage each winter.
M2560 Starter Recoil Spring and Pull Cord Service
A pull cord that does not retract smoothly on the M2560 has a damaged or unwound recoil spring inside the starter assembly. Full recoil starter assembly replacement is typically required since the spring is not commonly serviced individually.
M2560 Attachment Compatibility Verification
The M2560 supports several Murray attachments; check product specifications or use the model number to verify compatibility before purchasing, since coupling standards can vary even within the Murray brand’s product range across different trimmer series.

Murray M2560 String Trimmer Parts FAQ
What is the correct trimmer head for the Murray M2560?
The M2560 uses a bump-feed trimmer head, available as a complete assembly for quick replacement. Always match by model to ensure compatibility, since bump-feed head designs vary in spool capacity and line diameter rating even among visually similar Murray trimmer models.
How do I replace the string in my Murray M2560 weed eater?
Follow a step-by-step video guide for safely removing and reloading the string into the bump head trimmer. Confirm the correct line diameter specification for the M2560 head before loading new line, since oversized line can jam the bump-feed advance mechanism.
Are there attachments compatible with the Murray M2560?
Yes, the M2560 supports several Murray attachments. Check the product specifications or use your model number to verify compatibility before purchasing, since coupling standards can vary across different Murray trimmer series and not all accessories will fit every model.
Why won’t my Murray M2560 start after winter storage?
Post-storage starting failure on the M2560 is most commonly caused by ethanol-blend fuel varnish deposits in the carburetor from fuel left in the system over the winter. Drain the fuel system completely before seasonal storage each year; if the trimmer already has a varnish problem, clean or replace the carburetor and fuel lines.
