2. Lift and remove the spool out of the hub (Fig. 41) and

clean out any dirt or grass residue.

3. In case of jams or tangled line, unwrap about 6 inches

(15 cm) of line to ensure that it's not damaged.

4. If it appears undamaged, rewind it and hook each line end

through the two slots on each side of the spool (Fig. 42).

This will temporarily prevent the spool from unwinding.

5. Unhook the line from the slot and carefully reinsert through

its respective slot on each side of the hub and gently

press the spool down (Fig. 43).

6. Reinstall the spool cover by depressing the release tabs

into their slots in the hub, and push down until the spool

cover clicks into place (Fig. 44).

7. Remove line cutter guard to resume normal operation.

8. Connect the tool to a power source and turn the tool

on. In a few seconds, you will hear the line being cut

automatically to the proper length.

Winding the Line

NOTE: A dual-line factory wound spool (model GTS4000E-RS-

6PK) is available for easy spool replacement on the GTS4000E

electric grass trimmer. Visit snowjoe.com to purchase this

accessory online. Should you wish to wind the line yourself,

the instructions are provided below. Self-winding, however, is

NOT recommended because if the line is not wound properly

it can cause the trimmer’s auto feed system to malfunction.

For this reason, users are strongly urged to purchase the pre-

wound spool.

1. Unplug the grass trimmer.

2. To remove the spool from the trimmer hub, follow steps

1 and 2 from the section "Replacing the Spool + Clearing

Jams and Tangled Lines" beginning on page 19.

3. Take two lines, each with maximum length of 13.1 ft. (4 m)

and maximum diameter of 0.063 in. (1.6 mm) per slot.

Insert the end of one line in one of the eyes of the spool

and wind on the line according to the indicated direction

of winding. Please make certain that the line is wound on

evenly and tightly (Figs. 45 – 47).
