REFILLING
THE SPOOL
(Fig. 10)
If you do not purchase a new pre-wound
spool, you may purchase .065-inch
double-wound monofilament cutting line,
(Craftsman Cutting Line 71-85822) to
refill the spool that was provided with your
trimmer. Cutting line is available at Sears
stores or other Craftsman outlets.
1. Remove the spool from the trimmer head
(see steps 1through 3 in "Removingthe Spool").
2. Cut a length of cutting line to approximately
25 feet (7.6 m) long and fold it in half.

3. Loop the fold point all the way down into
one of the notches on the middle rail of
the spool to anchor the line (Fig. 10).
4. Wind the line evenly and tightly in the direction of the arrow on the base of
the spool. Make sure each section of the spool contains a separate half of
the line (Fig. 10), DO NOT wind the line beyond the edge of the cutting spool.
5. Leave about six inches of cutting line unwound in each section. Stabilize
these two ends of cutting line by inserting them across from each other into
the notches in the top rail of the spool. Note that the cutting line in the bottom
section will have to pass through notches in both the middle and the top rail.
6. Insert the end of one line through one of the eyelets in the spool housing.
Insert the other line through the other eyelet. Tug on the lines to release
them from the notches on the top spool rail.
7. Replace the spool and spool housing
(See steps 4 and 5 in "Replacing the Spool").
