6. Rotate the spool to align the slot in the ange with the hole in the gear case (Fig. 5).

7. Insert a suitable hex wrench into the aligned holes to act as a stabilizer (Fig. 6). Wear gloves to hold

the gear case together with the hex wrench, with one hand, and with the other hand, use an impact

socket wrench (3/5”, 15mm) to loosen the nut in the clockwise direction (Fig. 7).

8. Remove the nut, spool, and upper cover, in that order. Save the ange on the drive shaft for

reassembly (Fig. 8).

INSTALL THE NEW TRIMMER HEAD

1. Before installing the new trimmer head, make sure that the ange is located on the drive shaft with

the bulge facing away from the base (Fig. 9) and the ange cover is against the ange, with its at

surface facing outwards (Fig. 10).

2. Mount the upper cover onto the ange cover

rst, and then mount the spool onto the drive

shaft. Before mounting the locking nut, make

sure that when the spool is manually rotated,

the drive shaft rotates, also (see Fig. 8).

3. Pre-tighten the locking nut manually.

4. Rotate the spool to align the slot in the ange

with the hole in the gear case and insert the

hex wrench into the aligned holes to act as a

stabilizer (see Fig. 5 & 6).

5. Wear gloves to hold the gear case together with the hex wrench, with one hand, and with the

other hand, use an impact socket wrench (3/5”, 15mm) to tighten the nut in the counterclockwise

direction (Fig. 11).

6. Mount the lower cover assembly with the spring located inside (see Fig. 4).

7. With one hand holding the upper cover, use the other hand to grasp the lower cover assembly and

align the release tabs on the upper cover with the holes in the lower cover assembly; use your palm

to press and slightly rotate the lower cover assembly left and right until the tabs securely lock with

it on both sides (Fig. 12 & 13).

8. Refer to below “LINE REPLACEMENT” section to wind the cutting line into the trimmer head.

LINE REPLACEMENT

NOTICE: Always use the recommended nylon cutting line with a diameter that does not exceed 0.095 in.

(2.4 mm). Using line other than that specied may cause the string trimmer to overheat or become

damaged.

WARNING: Never use metal-reinforced line, wire, or rope, etc. These can break off and become

dangerous projectiles.

1. Cut one piece of cutting line 16 ft. (5m) long. Insert the line into the eyelet. Push the line until the

end of the line comes out of the other side of the trimmer head. Pull the line from the other side until

equal amounts of line appear on both sides (Fig. 14).

2. Press, while rotating the lower cover assembly in the direction indicated by the arrow, to wind the

cutting line into the spool that is inside until approximately 5.5in. (14cm) of line is showing on each

side (Fig. 15).

3. Push the lower cover assembly down while pulling on the lines to manually advance the line and to

check for proper assembly of the trimmer head.
