Installing A Prewound Reel; Cleaning The Trimmer - Toro 51450 Manual Del Usuario

The Correct Line To Use
POTENTIAL HAZARD
Use of improper line could cause line to
break and be thrown in operator's or
bystander's direction.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
Use of improper line could result in serious
personal injury.
HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD
Use only Toro approved replacement
monofilament line.
Do not use any type of wire or other
string–like substance. Do not use
metal-reinforced line.
It is very important to use the correct size line. A line
with a diameter of .060 inches (1.52 mm) must be
used. The motor may overheat and fail if you use a
larger line.
Removing The Existing Reel
1. Stop motor and wait for all moving parts to stop.
2. Hold the outer spool with one hand and unscrew
the Bump Knob counterclockwise (Fig. 11).
Inspect the captured bolt inside the Bump Knob
to make sure it moves freely. Replace the Bump
Knob if it is damaged.
3. Remove the inner reel (Fig. 12).
4. Use a clean cloth to clean the inner surface of the
outer spool (Fig. 13).
Note: Always clean the inner reel, outer
spool, and shaft before reassembling
the bump head.
5. Check the indexing teeth on the inner reel and
outer spool for wear (Fig. 14). If necessary,
deburr or replace the reel and spool.
Winding The Existing Reel
1. Take approximately 25 ft (7.6 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. 15). Pull the line so
that the loop is as small as possible.
2. Wind the lines, in even and tight layers, onto the
reel (Fig. 16). Wind the line in the direction
indicated on the inner reel. Be sure not to
overlap the two ends of the line.
Note: Place your index finger between the
two lines to stop the lines from
overlapping.
Note: Failure to wind the line in the direction
indicated will cause the bump head to
operate incorrectly.
3. Insert the ends of the line into the two holding
slots (Fig. 17).
Reinstalling The Reel
1. Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in
the outer spool (Fig. 18), then grasp the ends and
pull firmly to release the line from the holding
slots in the spool.
2. Hold the inner reel in place and install the Bump
Knob in the clockwise direction (see Fig. 11).
Line installation is now complete.
