MAINTENANCE
LINE REPLACEMENT
See Figures 12 - 14.
Use original manufacturer's replacement line for best
performance.
 Remove the battery pack.
 Rotate the bump knob clockwise as necessary to align the
arrows on the bump knob with the arrows on the string
head housing.
 Cut one piece of trimmer line no more than 16 ft long.
Insert the line into the eyelet on the string head housing.
Push until the end of the line comes out the other side
of the housing. Pull the line until equal amounts of line
appear on both sides of the housing.
NOTE: Line may jam if more than 16 ft. is loaded.
 Either by hand or using the string winder, rotate the
bump knob clockwise to wind the line on the spool until
approximately 6 in. of line is showing on each side.
NOTE: For best results, after every five to seven
revolutions of the string winder pull both line ends taut for
best loading results and to help prevent line from tangling.
 Push the bump knob down while pulling on line(s) to
manually advance the line.
