How the automatic line feed works (M)
1. When initially switching on the trimmer, a small length of
line is fed out.
2. A 'clattering' noise will be heard when the nylon line hits
the line cutter. DO NOT BE ALARMED this is quite nor-
mal. After approximately 5 seconds the line will be cut to
the correct length and the noise will reduce as the motor
reaches full speed.
• Make sure the motor is up to full speed before trimming.
3. If the noise of the nylon line being cut cannot be heard,
more line will need to be fed out.
4. To feed more line, it is first necessary to to allow the
motor to stop completely, then re-start, allowing the
motor to reach full speed.
5. Repeat step 4. until you hear the line hitting against the cutter.
(Do not repeat this procedure more than 6 times)
6. If problems are experienced with the automatic line feed
refer to Fault Finding Chart.
To manually feed the nylon line (N)
1. If required line can be fed out manually.
2. To operate, press and release manual line feed button,
whilst gently pulling on one of the lines until the line
reaches the line cutter.
3. When the required amount of line is fed out, gently pull
on the second line (there is no need to press the manual
line feed button again).
4. If the line extends past the line cutter, too much line has
been fed out.
5. If too much line is fed out, remove the spool cap and click
spool anti-clockwise until the line is at the desired length.

the spoolholder.

spoolholder to ensure cap is fully located.
3. Check that the cap is correctly fitted by trying to remove
it without depressing the two latches.
