TROUBLESHOOTING
TOOL RUNS SLOWLY
• Check that the spool housing can rotate freely. Carefully clean it if
necessary.
• Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than
approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the spool. If it does, cut
it off so that it just reaches the line trimming blade.
AUTOMATIC LINE FEED DOES NOT WORK
• Keep the tabs depressed and remove the spool from the spool
housing in the trimmer head.
• Pull the cutting line until it protrudes approximately 5-3/8 inches
(136mm) from the spool. If insufficient cutting line is left on the
spool, install a new spool of cutting line.
• Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the spool as detailed
in figure 18. If it is, unwind the cutting line, then wind it back on
the spool neatly so that the lines do not cross.
• Align the tabs on the spool cap with the cut outs in the housing.
• Push the spool onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.
• If the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off
so that it just reaches the blade. If the automatic line feed still
does not work or the spool is jammed, try the following
suggestions:
• Carefully clean the spool and housing.
• Remove the spool and check if the lever in the spool housing
can move freely.
• Remove the spool and unwind the cutting line, then wind it on
neatly again. Replace the spool into the housing.
