CUTTING LINE / LINE FEEDING
Your trimmer uses
.065 inch (1.65 mm) diameter, ROUND
nylon line
. During use, the tips of the nylon lines will become
frayed and worn and the special self feeding spool will
automatically feed and trim a fresh length of line.
DO NOT BUMP
unit on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purposes.
Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the
cutting or edging is done along sidewalks or other abrasive
surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.
REPLACEMENT ACCESSORIES
CAUTION:
Before you begin trimming, only use the
appropriate type of cutting line.
Use Black & Decker replacement spool Model No. AF-100.
Reload nylon line (either bulk or prewound replacement spool) as
shown in this manual.
• USE ONLY .065 inch (1.65 mm) DIAMETER ROUND NYLON
MONOFILAMENT LINE. Do not use serrated or heavier gauge
line, as they will overload the motor and cause overheating. This
line is available at your local dealer or authorized service center.
