SECTION 7: MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: SplitLine™ can only be used with the inner reel
with the slotted holes. Single line can be used on
either type of inner reel. Use Figure 34 to identify
the inner reel you have.
NOTE: Always use the correct line length when installing
trimming line on the unit. The line may not release
properly if the line is too long.
Single Line Installation
Go To Step 8 for SplitLine™ Installation
6. Take approximately 40 feet (12.2 m) of new trimming
line, loop it into two equal lengths. Insert each end of
the line through one of the two holes in the inner reel.
See Figure 35. Pull the line through the inner reel so
that the loop is as small as possible.
7. Wind the lines in tight even layers, onto the reel. See
Figure 36. Wind the line in the direction indicated on
the inner reel. Place your index finger between the
two lines to stop the lines from overlapping. Do not
overlap the ends of the line. Proceed to step 11.

8. Take approximately 20 feet (6.1 m) of new trimming
line. Insert one end of the line through one of the two
holes in the inner reel. See Figure 37. Pull the line
through the inner reel until only about 4 inches is left out.
9. Insert the end of the line into the open hole in the
inner reel and pull the line tight to make the loop as
small as possible. See Figure 37.
10. Before winding, split the line back about 6 inches.
11. Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction
indicated on the inner reel.
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will
cause the cutting attachment to operate incorrectly.
