There are two methods to replace the Rapid Rewind zu trimming line:
• Wind the inner reel with new line
• Install a pre-wound inner reel
Winding the Inner Reel With New Line
NOTE: It Is unnecessary to remove the bump knob to install a new
trimming line.
1. Cut two 7 ft (2.1 m) pieces of 0.095-inch (2.413 mm) trimming line.
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.
2. Hold the outer spool and turn the inner reel counterclockwise to line up
the arrows on the outer spool and inner reel (Fig. 11).

NOTE:
Making sure arrows are aligned, insert the end of a piece of trimming
line straight into one of the two eyelets in the outer spool. Push it up
through the line loading hole in the inner reel (Fig. 12). Do not bend the
line when inserting it into the eyelet.
Insert the line into the locking hole (Fig. 13). Do not push the line more
than a 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) into the line locking hole. The line will form a
small loop (Fig. 13) when it is inserted correctly.
Pull the line from the outer spool until the line is tight against the inner
reel (Fig. 14).
Repeat procedures 4-6 with the second piece of line in the other eyelet.
Do not wind the inner reel before installing the second piece of line.

9. If winding the line becomes difficult or if the line jams, pull the ends of
the line from the spool (Fig. 16). Continue winding the inner reel
counterclockwise until 4 inches of line remains on each side.
