MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
6. Take approximately 25 feet (7.6 m) of new
trimming line, loop it into two equal lengths.
Insert each end of the line through one of the
two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 32). Pull the
line through the inner reel so that the loop is
as small as possible.
NOTE: Always use the correct line length
when installing trimming line on the
unit. The line may not release properly
if the line is too long.
7. Wind the lines in tight even layers, onto the
reel (Fig. 33). Wind the line in the direction
indicated on the inner reel. Place your index
finger between the two lines to stop the lines
from overlapping. Do not overlap the ends
of the line.
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction
indicated will cause the cutting
attachment to operate incorrectly.

firmly to release the line from the holding
slots in the spool.
