To manually feed the nylon line (S)
1. If required line can be fed out manually.
2. To operate, press and release manual line feed but-
ton, whilst gently pulling on the line until it reaches
the line cutter. (If 2 lines are fitted do this to one line
only, then gently pull on the second line, there is no
need to press the manual line feed button again).
3. If the line extends past the line cutter, too much line
has been fed out.
4. If too much line is fed out, remove the spool cap and click
spool anti-clockwise until the line is at the desired length.
Please note: Depending on which model you have
purchased, your trimmer may be fitted with one line
or two lines.
To remove spool cap
1. Press and hold in the two cap release latches. See fig T1.
2. Pull cap away from the spoolholder. See fig T2.
When refitting the spool cap
1. Keep all areas of the cap and spoolholder clean.
Failure to do so may prevent the cap being securely
located in the spoolholder.
2. Align the two latches on the cap with the two win-
dows in the spoolholder, then press down into the
locked position.
3. Ensure the two cap release latches are clearly visible and
are fully engaged with the windows in the spoolholder.
4. Check that the cap is correctly fitted by trying to
remove it without depressing the two latches.
To replace nylon line. Replacement nylon line is available
from most Electrolux Outdoor Products stockists. You can
buy it either as spool and line complete, or as nylon line only.
To replace spool and line (complete)
1. Unwind approximately 100mm of line and feed this
through eyelet, see fig T3, then drop the spool into
spoolholder smooth side uppermost.
To replace nylon line on spool.
1. Take line and insert into hole in spool.
2. Turn spool clockwise to wind on required amount of
line, (approx. half = 10m) and cut line to length, see
fig T4. Care should be taken to ensure that the line
is neatly coiled on the spool. Failure to do so will
impair the efficiency of the automatic line feed.
3. Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound and
feed this through eyelet, see fig T3, then drop the
spool into the spoolholder smooth side uppermost.
• Ensure spool is fully located by gently rotating it
during fitment.
• Remember ! Your Flymo Multi-Trim is designed to
use only nylon line with a maximum diameter of
1.5mm. Use only genuine Flymo nylon line.
