-
Position the winding guard (K/21a) and screw the trimmer
head (K/21) clockwise onto the shaft by hand.
Note:
To remove the trimmer head, block the inner shaft of the shaft
tube (K/22) with a 13 mm open wrench (available in the
Accessoires) and unscrew the trimmer head counter-clock-
wise.
-
You can adjust the line to the right length at any time by
lightly tapping the trimmer head (L/21) against the ground
(direction of arrow). The line cutter automatically cuts off
excess line.
CAUTION: Always switch off the engine and disconnect
the spark plug cap before cleaning the trimmer head or
replacing the line!
-
Cut line (dia. .080" x 50 feet, order no. 369 224 060) to 11
feet, 10" (3.6 m).
-
Pull the line through the hole on the spool hub until the
ends are equal in length. Wind the lines tightly around the
spool in the direction shown by the arrow until the ends
are about 4" (10 cm) long.
-
Press one line end into the holding slot (M/27) on the rim.
Wind the other line end a half-turn and then press it into
the other holding slot (M/28).
-
Lay the spool in the housing, making sure to position the
lines at the line holes in the housing. Press the spool all
the way in and lead the line ends through the line holes
(M/25). Pull each line end so it comes out of the holding
slot.
-
Place the housing cover (M/30) (lug on cover (M/29) cen-
tred on tab(M/23)), press it on lightly and turn clockwise
until you hear it click.
