anti-clockwise, as indicated by
the “OFF” arrow, to unscrew it
from the trimming head (6).
4. The spool will then become
loose. Remove the spool and
spring from the spindle.
5. Cut two 3m equal lengths of
2mm line. Thread the first line
through the top hole, above
the spool divider. Wind it in
an anti-clockwise direction, as
shown by the arrows on the
base of the spool. Then insert
the other length of line in the
bottom hole and wind it in anti-
clockwise around the spool.
6. Leaving 15cm of line, lock
each end into the slots on
opposite sides of the spool.
7. Place the spring over the
spindle. Insert each of the
cutting lines through the
eyelets in the cutting head
assembly. Feed the line
through the holes while
lowering the spool.
8. Once the spool is in place,
apply pressure on the spool,
compressing the spring. Pull
each end of the line sharply
to unlock the line from the
slots. Ensure both lines have
disengaged the slots before
proceeding. Continue to apply
pressure to the spool and
screw the spool (9) clockwise
onto the spindle. Tighten the
spool securely.
9. When operating for the first
time after changing the spool
of line ensure to test the
assembly by running the line
trimmer in a safe location. The
line may not be fully extended
so you may need to “bump”
the head at full speed to feed
the line to the correct length.
Power cable restraint
During the use of the line
trimmer, the extension cord will
continually be pulled as you
move from one area to another.
A power cable restraint (1)
support has been provided on
the housing of the line trimmer to
assist in preventing the electrical
connection between the extension
cord and the line trimmer plug
being forced apart.
Note. The support is for the extension cord, and not the
cable from the line trimmer.
To fit the extension cord to the support, make a loop in the
extension cord and fit the loop into the curved recess at the
back of the line trimmer. Push the loop downwards so it fits
securely into the round cut away section.
