WARNING
changing or removing accessories.
Do not use blades, brush cutting wheels, ac-
cessories, or attachment other than those rec-
ommended by MILWAUKEE. Serious injury or
product damage may occur.
Replacing the Cutting Line
Use only MILWAUKEE trimmer line (see Specifica-
tions). Replace the cutting line with either 20' of
.095 line or 25' of .080 line. Note, when used near
abrasive surfaces or in dense growth, the cutting
line will wear faster.
1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Clean any grass or debris from the trimmer head.
3. Measure out 20' of .095 line or 25' of .080 line.
CAUTION: When replacing the line, use only
.080" or .095" spiral (2 mm or 2.4 mm) diameter
line. Any other size can degrade performance or
cause damage to the tool.
4. Rotate the cap to align the red indi-
cators on the cap with the red indi-
cators above the eyelets.
5. Insert the line through either eyelet
and push through the head so an
equal amount of line extends from
each eyelet.
6. Begin winding the line by rotating
the cap in the direction of the
arrows. Continue twisting until 4"
to 6" of line extends from the
eyelets.
7. Check that the exposed line
extends no further than the line
blade. If the exposed line is too
long, continue winding the cap or trim before use.
8. Under normal operation, the remaining string
should be thrown from the spinning head during
use. If any string remains in the head, or to remove
a length of string to replace with a different type,
turn the trimmer head over and
press the release tabs. Pull the
cover away from the head (2).
Discard any short line rem-
nants. Snap the cover back
onto the trimmer head.
Selecting the Speed
Use the speed control button to select Low
or High speeds. Use low speed for larger
jobs where extended battery life is needed.
Use high speed for dense growth applica-
tions.
