CUTTING LINE
Line feed
The trimmer uses a 2mm (0.080") diameter ROUND nylon
line to cut grass and weeds quickly and easily. During
use, the tips of the nylon lines will fray and wear out,
and the special automatic feed line spool will feed itself
and cut the line to provide a new tip. The cutting line will
wear faster and require more feeding if the cut or edge is
performed near sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces, or if
you cut thicker bushes. The advanced automatic feeding
mechanism of the line senses when more cutting line is
needed, and it feeds and cuts the proper length of line
needed. Do not drop the device when trying to feed the
line or for any other reason.
CLEANING JAMS AND TANGLED LINES
From time to time, especially when cutting thick or leafy
bushes, the line's feeding spool can jam with branches
and other materials. To clear the jam, follow the steps
below.
1. Unplug the trimmer.
2. Press the release tabs on the cover of the line spool
as shown in Fig. I and pull the cover out in a straight
line to remove it.
3. Remove the nylon line spool and clear damaged lines
or dust from the spool area. (DO NOT REMOVE THE
CENTRAL RING SCREW TO REMOVE THE SPOOL).
4. Place the spool and the line on the cover into the slots
provided as shown in Fig. J.
5. Insert the end of the line through the appropriate slots
on the reel spool. Pull the excess line until you can

feel it is fixed in place and then push it to adjust it.
wire.
(When in place, the spool will rotate freely a few
degrees to the left and to the right). Be careful to keep
the line from getting stuck under the spool.

pushing the tabs and pressing on the reel cover.
Note: Make sure the cover is in the correct position,
you must hear two clicks to ensure that the two tabs
