Remove the battery from the tool.
Keep the tabs (25) depressed and remove the
spool cover (26) from the housing (27).
Remove the empty spool (28) from the housing.
Remove any dirt and grass from the housing.
Take the new spool and unwind approx. 12 cm
of cutting line.
Feed the cutting line through the eyelet (29).
Push the spool onto the drive shaft (30) and
rotate it slightly until it is seated. Make sure
that the cutting line is not trapped under the
spool and that 10-12 cm of cutting line
protrudes from the housing.
Align the tabs on the spool cover with the
holes in the housing.
Push the cover onto the housing until it snaps
securely into place.
If the cutting line protrudes beyond the
trimming blade (10), cut it off so that it just
reaches the blade.
Winding new line onto an empty spool (fig. F)
You may wind new cutting line onto an empty
spool. Replacement packs of cutting line are
available from your Black & Decker dealer
(cat. no. A6170 (25 m), A6171 (40 m)).
Remove the empty spool from the tool as
described above.
Remove any old cutting line from the spool.
Feed 2 cm of cutting line into one of the holes
(31) in the spool as shown.
Bend the cutting line and anchor it in the
L-shaped slot (32).
Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the
direction of the arrow (33). Make sure to wind the
line on neatly and in layers. Do not criss-cross.
When the wound cutting line reaches the
recesses (34), cut the line. Let the line protrude
approx. 12 cm from the spool and hold a
finger on the line to keep it in place.
Proceed as described above to fit the spool on
the tool.
Only use the appropriate type of
Black & Decker cutting line.

USE
Let the tool work at its own pace.
Do not overload.
Charging the battery (fig. D, G, H & I)
The battery needs to be charged before first use
and whenever it fails to produce sufficient power
on jobs that were easily done before. To maximise
the lifetime of the battery, it is recommended to
keep the battery connected to the charger
whenever the tool is not in use. When the battery
is full, the power consumption of the charger is
negligible.
Do not charge the battery at ambient
temperatures below 4 °C or above 40 °C.
Recommended charging temperature:
approx. 24 °C.
To charge the battery while on the tool:
- Make sure the charging insert (24) is fitted in
the wall mount (15) (fig. D).
- Hang the tool on the wall mount as shown
(fig. G).
To charge the battery when removed from
the tool:
- Insert the plug (35) into the connector (36) on
the battery.
- Place the battery on a flat and level surface
as shown.
Make sure that the plug and cable are not
trapped under the battery.
Charging process (fig. I)
Plug the charger into a mains outlet.
While the battery is being charged, the red
indicator light (37) on the charger will be lit.
When charging is complete, the red indicator light
will stop lighting and the green indicator light (38)
will be lit. The battery can be left connected to the
charger indefinitely.
When you want to use the tool, disconnect the
battery and unplug the charger.
