Troubleshooting

Problem Solution
Appliance runs slowly. Remove battery from trimmer.
Check that spool housing or resin blade head
can rotate freely. Carefully clean it if necessary.
Check that the cutting line does not protrude
more than approximately 122mm from the spool.
If it does, cut it off so that it just reaches the line
trimming blade
Automatic line feed
More line is fed when the line shortens to ap-
does not feed line.
proximately 76mm. To determine if the line is not
feeding, let line wear past this point.
Keep the tabs depressed and remove the
spoolcap with the spool from the spool housing in
the trimmer head.
Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the
spool as detailed in (Fig.T). If it is unwind the
cutting line and rewind it neatly.
Inspect tracks at the bottom of spool for damage.
If damaged, replace spool.
Pull the cutting line until it protrudes ap-
proximately 122mm from the spool. If insufficient
cutting line is left on the spool, install a new spool
of cutting line.
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 automatic line feed still does not work or the
spool is jammed, try the following suggestions:
Carefully clean the spool and housing.
Make sure you are using correct line size and
diameter (2.00 mm) - smaller and larger line
sizes will affect the functionality of the auto feed
system.
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.
Overfeeding Ensure you are cutting with the tip of the line
177mm from the spool. Use the edge guide if
needed to ensure proper space is maintained.
Ensure you are not exceeding a 10º angle as
shown in (Fig.M). Avoid contact of the line with
hard surfaces such as brick, concrete, wood etc.
This will prevent excessive wear and/or overfeed
of line. Cut with the tip of the line
Line unravels when cap Make sure to park the lines in holding slots
