5. CUTTING LINE REPLACEMENT
Always use the correct nylon monofilament cutting line diameter.
Cutting-line head removal is not necessary to replace the line. Head
removal is covered in "CUTTING ATTACHMENT / GEAR CASE"
on page 10-1.
MANUAL CUTTING-LINE HEAD
1. Move the ignition switch to the STOP position and disconnect
the spark plug cap from the spark plug.
2. Clean any mud, debris, etc., from around the trimmer head
area; otherwise, the trimmer will be more difficult to service.
3. Rotate the left-hand threaded knob in the direction of the arrow
and remove the knob.
4. Remove the spring and spool from the housing, and then
remove any remaining old line from the spool.
5. Measure approximately 6 meters (20 feet) of line, then thread
one end through the hole in the ridge on the spool. Pull the line
until the two line lengths are equal.
6. Wind both lines tightly and evenly from side-to-side, ignoring
the ridge. Feed the line while turning the spool in the direction
of the arrow. Do not allow the lines to get twisted.
It is important to prevent the two lines from getting twisted over
each other. Position a finger between the lines as you turn the
spool to prevent the lines from twisting.
