REPLACING THE TRIMMING LINE (FIXED-LINE CUTTING

HEAD)

Only use the trimming line described in the Specifications section.

Other types of trimming line may cause the unit to overheat or fail.

1. Remove the old line from the cutting head. Push one end of the

trimming line into the cutting head until a loop of line protrudes

from the head. Pull the loop to remove the line (Fig. 26).

2. Use a clean cloth to clean the surface of the cutting head.

3. Turn the bump knob to align the mark on the bump knob with the

mark on the spool cover (Fig. 18).

4. Insert the ends of the new trimming line into the holes in the

cutting head (Fig. 24). Push the line through the holes until both

ends protrude from the eyelets (Fig. 25).

5. Pull the ends of the line until the line is tight against the cutting

head. Make sure the ends of the line are of equal length (Fig. 26).

If one end is longer than the other, push the longer end back

through the cutting head partway and pull the shorter end out. If

necessary, repeat this process until both ends are of equal length.

6. Press the exposed loop of trimming line until it is tight against

the cutting head (Fig. 26).

WARNING:

Never use metal-reinforced line, wire, chain or

rope. These can break off and become dangerous projectiles.
