REPLACEMENT ACCESSORIES

CAUTION:
Before you begin trimming, only use the appropriate type of cutting line.
Use Black & Decker replacement spool Model No. AF-100, and replacement cap RC-100.
Reload nylon line (either bulk or prewound replacement spool) as shown in this manual.
• USE ONLY .065 inch (1.65 mm) DIAMETER ROUND NYLON LINE. Do not use serrated
or heavier gauge line, as they will overload the motor and cause overheating. This line is
available at your local dealer or authorized service center.
• Other replacement parts (guards, spool caps, etc.) are available through Black &
Decker service centers. To find your local service location call: 1-800-544-6986 or visit

WARNINg:
The use of any accessory not recommended by Black & Decker for use with
this trimmer could be hazardous.
REPLACINg THE SPOOL
• Unplug trimmer.
• Depress the tabs (15) and remove the spool cap (9) from the spool housing (16) in the
trimmer head (figure L).
• For best results, replace spool with Black & Decker model no. AF-100.
• Grasp empty spool with one hand and spool housing with other hand and pull spool out.
• If lever (17) (figure M) in base of housing becomes dislodged, replace in correct position
before inserting new spool into housing.
• Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and housing.
• Unfasten the end of the cutting line and guide the line into the eyelet (19) figure N.
• Take the new spool and push it onto the boss (18) (figure M) in the housing. Rotate the spool slightly
until it is seated. The line should protrude approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the housing.
• Align the tabs on the spool cap with the slots (20) in the housing (figure N).
• Push the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.
CAUTION:
To avoid trimmer damage, if the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming
blade, cut it off so that it just reaches the blade.
REWINDINg SPOOL FROM BULK LINE
(USE ONLY .065 IN. ROUND DIAMETER LINE)
Bulk line is also available for purchase from your local retailer. NOTE: Hand wound spools
from bulk line are likely to become tangled more frequently than Black & Decker factory
wound spools. For best results, factory wound spools are recommended.
To install bulk line, follow the steps below:
• Unplug trimmer.
• Remove the empty spool from the trimmer as described in "REPLACINg THE SPOOL".
• Remove any remaining cutting line from the spool.
• Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 3/4 inch (19mm)(21). Feed the cutting line
into one of the line anchoring slots (22) as shown in figure O.
• Insert the 3/4 inch (19mm) end of the bulk line into the hole (23) in the spool adjacent to the slot
as shown in figure P. Make sure the line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in figure P.
• Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the arrow on the spool. Make sure to
wind the line on neatly and in layers. Do not crisscross (figure Q).
• When the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (24), cut the line. (figure P).
• Fit the spool onto the trimmer as described in "REPLACINg THE SPOOL".
CAUTION:
Before you begin trimming, only use the appropriate type of cutting line.
