Replacing The Spool; Replacing The String; Preparing The Battery Pack For Recycling - Toro 51484 Operator's Manual

Replacing the Spool

Use only .065 inch (1.65 mm) diameter monofilament string. Use
original manufacturer's replacement string for best performance
(Toro part number 88532 or 88524).
Important: Use of a larger diameter string will cause the
motor to overheat and fail.
1. Remove the battery.
2. Push in the tabs on the side of the spool retainer (Figure 13).

3. Pull the spool retainer up to remove it and remove the spool.
4. To install the new spool, make sure the string is captured in
one of the retaining slots on the new spool. Make sure the
end of the string extends approximately 6 inches (152 mm).
5. Install the new spool so that the string aligns with the eyelet
in the string head. Thread the string into the eyelet.
6. Pull the string extending from the string head so the string
releases from the slot in the spool.
7. Reinstall the spool retainer by depressing tabs into slots and
pushing down until spool retainer clicks into place.

Note: Remove any old string remaining on the spool.
3. The spool will accept up to 15 feet of string.Use only .065
inch (1.65 mm) diameter monofilament string.
Note: Do not use any other gauge or type of string, as this
could damage the trimmer.
4. Insert the string into the anchor hole in the upper part of
the spool (Figure 14). Wind the string onto the spool in the
direction shown by the arrows on the spool.
5. Place the string in the slot on the upper spool flange, leaving
about 6 inch (152 mm) extended beyond the slot.
Note: Do not overfill. After winding the string, there should
be at least 1/4 inch (6 mm) between the wound string and
the outside edge of the spool.
6. Replace the spool and the spool retainer. Refer to Spool
