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 18 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 18 feet (5.4 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 (Fig. 19). 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. 20). 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.
SplitLine™ Installation
8. Take approximately 9 feet (2.7 m) of new trimming line.
Insert one end of the line through one of the two holes in
the inner reel (Fig. 21). 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
(Fig. 21).
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.
12. Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots (Fig. 22).
