Operating Tips
To reduce line wear and improve trimming
performance, use the following techniques when
trimming:
• Remove any wire, rope or string-like matter which
could become entangled in the rotating line from
the trimming area.
• Trim only when the grass and weeds are dry.
• Slowly move the
trimmer in and out
of the area being
cut.
• Cut grass in excess of eight inches tall or weeds
from the top to the bottom in small increments.
Do not force the trimmer. Allow the very tip of
•
the line to do the cutting.
Replacing Line
For replacement line, you can purchase either a new,
pre-wound spool of line (model no. 88175, 88052, or
88035) or bulk line (0.065 inch dia. (1.6 mm) x 30 ft.
(9 m)) that you can wind onto the old spool. Both are
available from your Authorized Toro Dealer.
Metal wire, rope, plastic knives, or any material
other than Toro .065 inch dia. (1.6 mm) nylon
monofilament may overload the motor, possibly
causing a fire or electrical shock.
Do not use any material other than Toro .065 inch
dia. (1.6 mm) nylon monofilament, 30 ft. (9 m)
maximum line length.

Removing the Spool
1. Twist the cap off
counterclockwise.
2. Remove the cap
and spool.
Note: If the spring falls
off, install it before
installing the spool.
3. Thoroughly clean
the cutting head and cap
and inspect them for any
damaged or worn parts.
Rewinding the Spool
Note: If you are replacing the spool with a new,
pre-wound spool, discard the empty spool and skip
this section.
1. Remove any cutting line left on the spool.
2. Hook one end of line
all the way into the slot
on the spool, allowing
no more than 1/8 inch
(3 mm) to protrude.
3. Wind the line in the direction of the arrow on the
spool, in level rows, between the spool flanges.
Note: The trimmer will not function correctly if you
wind the line in the wrong direction, the end of the line
protrudes more than 1/8 inch (3 mm), or you wind
more than 30 ft of line on the spool.
