ENGLISH
The advanced automatic line feeding mechanism senses
when more cutting line is needed and feeds and trims the
correct length of line whenever it's required. Do not bump unit
on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purposes.
Clearing jams and tangled line (Fig. K, L, M)
Warning! Remove the battery from the trimmer before
making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the appliance accidentally. From time to time, especially
when cutting thick or stalky weeds, the line feeding hub may
become clogged with sap or other material and the line will
become jammed as a result. To clear the jam, follow the steps
listed below.
Remove the battery from the trimmer.
u
Press the release tabs (15) on the line spool cap (16),
u
as shown in Figure K and remove the cap by pulling it
straight off.
Pull the nylon line spool out and clear any broken line or
u
cutting debris from the spool area.
Place spool and line into spool cap with line "parked" in
u
slots provided as shown in Figure L1.
Insert the line end through the appropriate hole in the
u
spool housing. Pull slack line through until it pulls out of
the holding slots as shown in Figure L2.
Press the spool down gently and rotate it until you feel it
u
drop into place and then push to snap into place. (When
in place, the spool will turn a few degrees left and right
freely).
Take care to keep the line from becoming trapped under
u
the spool.
Align the spool cap tabs with the slots on the spool
u
housing.
Snap the spool cap back on as shown in Figure M by
u
depressing lugs and pressing into spool housing.
Note: Make sure that cover is fully positioned, listen for two
audible clicks to ensure both lugs are correctly located. Power
the appliance on. In a few seconds or less you'll hear the
nylon line being cut automatically to the proper length.
Warning! To avoid appliance damage, if the cutting line
protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just
reaches the blade.
Note: Other replacement parts (guards, spool caps, etc.) are
available through BLACK+DECKER service centers. To find
your local service location visit www.blackanddecker.com.
Warning! The use of any accessory not recommended
by BLACK+DECKER for use with this appliance could be
hazardous.
Replacing the spool (Fig. K, L, M, N)
Remove battery from appliance.
u
Depress the tabs (15) and remove the spool cap (16) from
u
the spool housing (17) (Figure K).

(Original instructions)
Grasp empty spool with one hand and spool housing with
u
other hand and pull spool out.
If lever (18) (Figure N) in base of housing becomes
u
dislodged, replace in correct position before inserting new
spool into housing.
Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and housing.
u
Unfasten the end of the cutting line and guide the line into
u
the eyelet (L2) Figure L.
Take the new spool and push it onto the boss (19)
u
(Figure N) in the housing. Rotate the spool slightly until it
is seated. The line should protrude approximately 136 mm
from the housing.
Align the tabs on the spool cap with the slots in the
u
housing (Figure M).
Push the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into
u
place.
Rewinding spool from bulk line (Fig. O, P, Q)
Bulk line is also available for purchase from your local retailer.
Note: Hand wound spools from bulk line are likely to become
tangled more frequently than BLACK+DECKER factory
wound spools. For best results, factory wound spools are
recommended. To install bulk line, follow the steps below:
Remove battery from appliance.
u
Remove the empty spool from the appliance as described
u
in "Replacing the spool."
Remove any remaining cutting line from the spool.
u
Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 19 mm
u
(20). Feed the cutting line into one of the line anchoring
slots (21) as shown in Figure O.
Insert the 19 mm end of the bulk line into the hole (22) in
u
the spool adjacent to the slot as shown in Figure P. Make
sure the line is pulled tight against the spool as shown in
Figure P.
Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the
u
arrow on the spool. Make sure to wind the line on neatly
and in layers. Do not crisscross (Figure Q).
When the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (23),
u
cut the line (Figure P).
Fit the spool onto the appliance as described in "Replacing
u
the spool".
