
housing (Fig. O). Rotate the spool slightly until it is
seated. The line should protrude approximately 136mm
from the housing.


housing (Fig. Q).
Push the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.

Warning! To avoid trimmer damage, if the cutting line
protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just
reaches the blade.

unravel. Hold it firmly with one hand at all times.
Insert the 19mm end of the bulk line into the hole (26) in the

spool adjacent to the slot as shown in Fig. S. Make sure the
line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in Fig. T.
Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the

arrow on the spool. Make sure to wind the line on neatly
and in layers. Do not crisscross (Fig. T).
When the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (24),

cut the line. (Fig. S).

Troubleshooting

If your tool seems not to operate properly, follow the
instructions below. If this does not solve the problem, please
contact your local BLACK+DECKER repair agent.
Warning! Before proceeding, unplug the tool.
(Original instructions)
Machine runs slowly
Check that the spool housing can rotate freely. Carefully

clean it if necessary.
Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than

approximately 136mm from the spool. If it does, cut it off
so that it just reaches the line trimming blade.
POWERCOMMAND feed does not work
Remove the spool cap.

Pull the cutting line until it protrudes approximately 136mm

from the spool. If insufficient cutting line is left on the
spool, install a new spool of cutting line.
Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the spool as

detailed in Fig. T. If it is, unwind the cutting line, then wind
it back on the spool neatly so that the lines do not cross.
Ensure the beginning of the cutting line is pulled tight

against the spool as shown in Fig. S.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the cut outs in the

housing.
Push the spool cap onto the housing until it snaps

securely into place.
If the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut

it off so that it just reaches the blade.
If the POWECOMMAND line feed still does not work or
the spool is jammed, try the following suggestions:
Carefully clean the spool and housing.

Remove the spool and check if the lever in the spool

housing can move freely.
Remove the spool and unwind the cutting line,

then wind it on neatly again. Replace the spool into
the housing.
