3. Make sure that the hexagonal 

recess on the spool is fully 

located on the hexagonal 

section on the spindle. 

4. Secure the spool and line 

assembly by screwing the 

bump knob onto the end of 

the spindle. 

5. Tighten the bump knob using 

the spanner provided. 

Replacement of the cutting line 

1. Stop the engine.
2. Put the petrol line trimmer on the floor in a way that 

cutting line and spool assembly (1) is facing up.

3. Open the cutting line and 

spool assembly (1) by using 

the spool removal spanner 

(15) twisting the bump knob 

anti-clockwise.

4. Pull the bump knob out of the 

spool head and remove the 

remaining cutting line.

5. Cut the new line, Ø2mm 

and 6 metres long in two 

equal lengths. Make a loop 

folded at each end of the two 

nylon threads (already cut) 

and insert into one of the 

slots provided in the centre of 

the spool and wrap the line 

firmly clockwise.

6. Introduce each end of the line to the eyelets in the 

spool holder. The line should stick out 150mm each side.

7. Screw the bump knob back on the shaft firmly.

CAUTION. 

After changing the line spool, run the petrol line 

trimmer under no load for at least a minute to make sure 

that the line and the tool are both operating correctly. Use 

only the line spool as recommended by the manufacturer.

WARNING. 

Never use steel threads and/or three teeth 

blade other than those provided by the manufacturer. 

Always use tools in perfect condition, free of damage.

WARNING.

 In high-speed rotation, parts could be projected 

at very high speed and could involve serious injury and 

damages to persons and property.  

Fueling

MOTOR FUEL: MIX AT 40:1 ONLY

1. Use fresh unleaded petrol. You must use 2-stroke oil 

specifically made for heavily stressed two-stroke engines. 

2. Mix the petrol and oil in an approved container. 

Never mix fuel directly in the line trimmer fuel tank.  

3. Place the line trimmer upright on the ground or on 

a sturdy bench and wipe any debris from around the 

fuel cap.

4. Unscrew the fuel tank cap and pour the mixture into the 

tank with the aid of a funnel.

5. Be careful not to spill any mixture. If this happens, wipe 

the spill with a clean rag.

6. Start the engine at least three metres away from the area 

where the fuel tank has been filled up in order to avoid 

any risk of fire.

  Always use extreme care when handling fuel! Fuel is 

highly flammable. 

  Never attempt to fuel the line trimmer if the fuel system 

components are damaged or are leaking. 

  Never attempt the refuel the engine while it is running 

or still warm, allow it to cool before fueling.
