Go To Step 8 for SplitLine™ Installation
6. Cut approximately 25 feet (7.6 m) of new trimming line,
then loop it into two equal lengths. Insert each end of the
line through one of the two holes in the inner reel
(Fig. 14). 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
(Fig. 15). 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.
