MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
WARNING
When servicing use only identical replacement
parts. Use of any other parts can create a hazard
or cause product damage. Avoid using solvents
when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are
susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by
their use. Use a clean cloth to remove dirt, oil,
grease, etc.
CAUTION
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum based products, penetrating oils, etc.,
come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that may damage, weaken, or destroy
plastics.
CUTTING LINE REPLACEMENT
The cutting line may be replaced by either rewinding the
existing spool or installing a convenient prewound spool.
REWINDING THE EXISTING SPOOL
See Figure 14.
Remove the battery pack from the string trimmer.

this procedure, reinstall the spring before installing
the spool and spool cap.
Inspect the string head for damaged or worn parts
■
and clean thoroughly.
Using approximately 3 m (10 feet) of new cutting line,
■
insert one end of the line into the slot on the spool.
Ensure the end of the line is pushed all the way
towards the inner side of slot.
NOTE: No more than 3.175 mm (1/8 in.) of the line is
to protrude from the slot.
Wind the line, in even and tight layers, onto the spool.

indicated on the spool.
Unwind approximately 102 mm (4 in.) of the line from
■
the spool. Hold the line and spool firmly to keep it from
unwinding then place the spool cap onto the spool.
Holding the spool cap and spool by the bump knob,
■
place into the spool housing and insert cutting line
into the opening in spool housing.

the slots in the spool housing.
