SoLution
• Remove battery from tool.
• Check that the spool housing
can rotate freely. Carefully clean
it if necessary.
• Check that the cutting line
does not protrude more than
approximately 4-13/16 inches
(122mm) from the spool.
If it does, cut it off so that it just
reaches the line trimmingblade.
• More line is fed when the line
shortens to approximately 3
inches (76.2mm). To determine
if the line is not feeding, let line
wear past this point.

SoLution
• Keep the tabs depressed and
remove the spool from the spool
housing in the trimmer head.
• Ensure that the line is not
crisscrossed on the spool as
detailed in figure U. If it is,
unwind the cutting line, then
wind it back on the spool neatly
so that the lines do not cross.
• Inspect tracks at the bottom of
spool for damage. If damaged,
replace spool.
•Read the code on the back of
spool. If it reads "Pa66" call
customer service for a replacement.
If it reads "aBS" this is not the issue.
• Pull the cutting line until it
protrudes approximately 4-13/16
inches (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.
• Remove the spool and check if the
lever in the spool housing can
move freely.
