Part 2 - Winding New Trimming Line onto the Inner Reel
•
If using single line, refer to Winding Single Line.
•
If using split line, refer to Winding Split Line.
•
If using a prewound inner reel, proceed to Part 3 - Installing the
Inner Reel.
Winding Single Line
1. Cut two 8-foot (2.4 m) lengths of new single trimming line.
2. Insert the end of one line into the top hole in the inner reel (Fig.
12A). Wind the line tightly in the direction shown on the bottom
of the inner reel until about 6 inches (150 mm) of line remains.
Keep the line above the split wall. Insert the 6-inch section into
the nearest .095 holding slot (Fig. 12B).
3. Insert the end of the other line into the bottom hole in the inner reel
(Fig. 13A). Wind the line tightly in the direction shown on the bottom
of the inner reel until about 3 to 9 inches (75 to 225 mm) of line
remains. Keep the line below the split wall. Insert the 3 to 9-inch
section into the opposite .095 holding slot (Fig. 13B).
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will cause
the cutting head to operate incorrectly.
Proceed to Part 3 - Installing the Inner Reel.
Winding Split Line
1. Cut one 6-foot (1.8 m) length of new split line trimming line. Split
each end about 6 inches (150 mm).
2. Using one split end, insert one line into the top hole and the
other line into the bottom hole in the inner reel (Fig. 14A).
3. Wind the line tightly in the direction shown on the bottom of the
inner reel. The split wall will automatically divide the line. Wind
the line until it is completely divided and about 6 inches (150
mm) of line remains.
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will cause
the cutting head to operate incorrectly.
4. Insert the two 6-inch sections into the two .095 holding slots
(Fig. 14B).
Proceed to Part 3 - Installing the Inner Reel.
Part 3 - Installing the Inner Reel
1. Pass the two line ends through the eyelets in the outer spool.
Place the spring inside the inner reel. Insert the inner reel into
the outer spool. Push the inner reel and outer spool together
(Fig. 15).
NOTE: The spring must be assembled on the inner reel before
reassembling the cutting head.
2. While holding the inner reel and outer spool together, firmly pull
the two line ends to release them from the holding slots.
3. While holding the inner reel and outer spool together, screw the
bump knob on clockwise. Tighten the bump knob securely.
