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.

Check that the spool housing can rotate freely.

just reaches the line trimming blade.
Automatic line feed does not work
Keep the tabs depressed and remove the spool cover
u
from the housing.
Pull the cutting line until it protrudes 11 cm from the

install a new spool of cutting line as instructed above.
Align the tabs on the spool cover with the cut outs in the
u
housing.
Push the cover onto the housing until it snaps securely
u
into place.
If the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade,

jammed, try the following suggestions:
Carefully clean the spool cover and housing.
