Readjusting the line of the 2-line trimmer head
The line length can be adjusted at any time with the best possible
results by tapping the line trimmer head on the ground lightly
during the mowing operation. The lengthening of the line amounts
to approx. 40 mm for each releasing operation.
The line blade cuts off projecting ends of the line automati-
cally.
Checking/replacing the line of the 2-line trimmer head
The new nylon line must be four meters long and have a dia-
meter of Ø 3.0 mm (order number, see extract from the spare
parts list).
To replace the line, it is advisable to dismantle the line trimmer
head rst (see instructions from section "Installing the 2-line
trimmer head" in chapter "Preparations" in reverse order).
1 Press in the cover mounting clips and open the line trim
-
mer head carefully (Caution! Inner spring presses the two
housing parts apart) (A).
2 Take the reel including the line out of the housing (B).
3 Remove remaining old pieces of line from the reel.
If there is still sufcient line on the reel, but if the
line does not adjust itself to the correct length
during the mowing operation, the line must be
wound up onto the reel again.
4 Use a paintbrush to clean the reel bottom side and the
housing and check for any signs of damage.
5 Kink the new line in the middle and insert into the partition
of the two reel guides as shown in the illustration (C, D).
6 Wind the line from the two reel guides in the direction of
the arrow tautly onto the reel (E).
7 Clamp both ends of the lines in two opposite grooves of the
reel so that the line does not slacken when the reel
is inserted into the housing (F).
8 Reinsert the reel into the bottom part of the housing and
thread both ends of the line into the line guides in the housing
(G).
9 Line up the reel according to the cut-outs in the top part of
the housing and press into the housing forcefully until
both snap-t closures snap into place (H).
Uneven line lengths are cut off by the line blade
on the cutter guard automatically during regular
operation.
