REPLACING THE LINE
Pre-wouod spools offer the most convenient
method for replacing line and ensuring opti-
mum performance.
• Replacement spools are color-coded to
ensure use of the correct spool with your
unit. Be sure to use the same color spool as
the existing spool.
NOTE: Always clear dirt and debris from
cutting head components when performing
any type of maintenance.
• Hold spool and unscrew cap by turning in
the direction shown on top of the cap.
• Remove line guide ring and spool.
NOTE: When removing and/or installing spool,
ensure dust cup remains installed over shaft.
