CLEARING JAMS AND TANGLED LINES
From time to time, especially when cutting thick or stalky weeds,
the line feeding hub may become clogged with sap or other
material and the line will become jammed as a result. To clear
the jam, follow the steps listed below.
1. Press the release tabs on the line
hub cap, as shown in Figure 9
and remove the cap by pulling it
straight off.
2. Lift the spool of nylon line out of
the hub and clear any broken line
or cutting debris from the spool
area. (If you plan to replace the
spool or rewind it, this is the place
to do so, otherwise, move on.)
3. Unwrap about one foot (30 cm) of
line to ensure that itʼs undamaged.
If it is OK rewind it and insert the
line end through the eyelet in the
spool hub as shown in Figure 10.
Pull 4 in. (10 cm) of the line
through the hole and maintain
tension while placing the spool
down into the hub with the arrow
up, as shown in Figure 11.
4. Press the spool down GENTLY
and rotate it until you feel it drop
into place. (When in place, the
spool will turn a few degrees left
and right freely). Take care to
keep the line from becoming
trapped under the spool.
5. Snap the hub cap back on, and
power the tool on. In a few seconds or less youʼll hear the nylon
line being cut automatically to the proper length.
For trouble free feeding and best results, only use
Black & Decker replacement spools with single 0.065 inch line.
Black & Decker replacement spool model number AF-100.
SPOOL OR LINE REPLACEMENT (Use .065 in. (1.65mm)
diameter ROUND line only)
1. Perform step 1 above to remove cap.
2. Remove the spool from the tool and remove and discard all line
on the spool.
3. Choose either OPTION 1 or OPTION 2 below for spool or line
replacement. Perform steps listed under Option 1 or Option 2,
then continue with steps 4 through 6 below.
4. Insert the line end through the eyelet in the spool hub, as shown
in Figure 10. Pull the line through the hole to maintain tension
while placing the spool down into the hub, as shown in
Figure 11.
5. Press the spool down GENTLY and rotate it until you feel it drop
into place. (When in place, the spool will turn a few degrees left
and right freely). Take care to keep the line from becoming trapped
under the spool.
