Grasp empty spool with one hand and spool housing with
u
other hand and pull spool out.
If lever (24) (Figure Q) in base of housing becomes
u
dislodged, replace in correct position before inserting new
spool into housing.
Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and housing.
u
Unfasten the end of the cutting line and guide the line into
u
the eyelet (O2) Figure O.
Take the new spool and push it onto the boss (25) (Figure
u
Q) in the housing. Rotate the spool slightly until it is
seated. The line should protrude approximately 136mm
from the housing.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the slots in the
u
housing (Figure P).
Push the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into
u
place.
Rewinding spool from bulk line (Fig. R, S, T)
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:
Remove battery from appliance.
u
Remove the empty spool from the appliance as described
u
in "Replacing the spool."
Remove any remaining cutting line from the spool.
u
Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 19 mm
u
(26). Feed the cutting line into one of the line anchoring
slots (27) as shown in Figure R.
Insert the 19 mm end of the bulk line into the hole (30) in
u
the spool adjacent to the slot as shown in Figure S. Make
sure the line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in
Figure T.
Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the
u
arrow on the spool. Make sure to wind the line on neatly
and in layers. Do not crisscross (Figure T).
When the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (29),
u
cut the line (Figure S).
Fit the spool onto the appliance as described in "Replacing
u
the spool".
Maintenance
Your BLACK+DECKER corded/cordless appliance/tool has
been designed to operate over a long period of time with a
minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper tool/appliance care and regular
cleaning.
Your charger does not require any maintenance apart from
regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance on corded/
cordless power tools:
(Original instructions)
Switch off and unplug the appliance/tool.
u
Or switch off and remove the battery from the appliance/
u
tool if the appliance/tool has a separate battery pack.
Or run the battery down completely if it is integral and then
u
switch off.
Unplug the charger before cleaning it. Your charger does
u
not require any maintenance apart from regular cleaning.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool/appliance
u
and charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do
u
not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
Regularly clean the cutting line and spool using a soft
u
brush or dry cloth.
Regularly use a blunt scraper to remove grass and dirt
u
from the underneath of the guard.
Troubleshooting
Problem
Remove battery from trimmer.
Appliance 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 122 mm from the spool. If it does, cut it off
so that it just reaches the line trimming blade
More line is fed when the line shortens to approximately

feed line.
Keep the tabs depressed and remove the spoolcap with
the spool from the spool housing in the trimmer head.
Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the spool as
detailed in (Fig. T). If it is unwind the cutting line and
rewind it neatly.
Inspect tracks at the bottom of spool for damage. If
damaged, replace spool.
Pull the cutting line until it protrudes approximately
122 mm from the spool. If insufficient cutting line is left
on the spool, install a new spool of cutting line.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the cut outs in the
housing.
Push the spool cap 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.
Make sure you are using correct line size and diameter
(2.00 mm) - smaller and larger line sizes will affect the
functionality of the auto feed system.
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.
Ensure you are cutting with the tip of the line 177 mm
Overfeeding
from the spool. Use the edge guide if needed to ensure
proper space is maintained.
Ensure you are not exceeding a 10º angle as shown in
(Fig. M). Avoid contact of the line with hard surfaces such
as brick, concrete, wood etc. This will prevent excessive
wear and/or overfeed of line. Cut with the tip of the line
