CARE AND MAINTENANCE
You can replace the new line in another way:
WARNING
• To prevent serious personal injury, remove the
battery pack from the tool before servicing,
cleaning, changing attachments or removing
material from the unit.
a. Press the two release tabs on the spool base
and remove the spool retainer.
b. Reinstall the spool retainer in such a way that
the threading hole on the spool retainer is
aligned with one of the eyelets (Fig. 6e).
c. Insert the new line into the eyelet. Feed the line
until the end of the line comes out of the other
side eyelet of the spool base (Fig. 6f).
d. Pull the line from the other side until equal
amounts of line appear on both sides.
e. Hold the spool base and rotate the bump head
in the direction indicated by the arrow to wind
the cutting line into the trimmer head (Fig. 6g).
• Push down on the bump head and check for
proper installation of the cutting line.
