TOOL 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 4 1/2" (11 cm) from the spool
housing. If it does, cut it off so that it just reaches the line trimming blade.

AUTOMATIC LINE FEED DOES NOT WORK.

• Press the tabs and remove the spool cover from the housing.
• Pull the cutting line until it protrudes 4 1/2" (11 cm) from the housing. If insufficient cutting
line is left on the spool, install a new spool of cutting line as instructed in the Maintenance
section of this lowercase.
• Align the tabs on the spool cover with the cutouts in the housing.
• Push the cover 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 cover and housing.
- Remove the spool and check if the lever can move freely.
- Remove the spool and unwind the cutting line, then wind it on neatly again as
described above. Replace the spool as instructed.
