9.8 MAINTENANCE (BC-EX ONLY)
9.8.1 REFILLING TRIMMING LINE
1.
For a replacement line, use a diameter of 2.4
mm. Avoid using a larger line as it may cut
down the trimming performance.
WARNING
For safety reasons, do not use metal reinforced line.
2. Pinch the slotted area on both sides of the
spool housing to unhook the bottom cap.
3. Take out the spool and pull off remaining old
line. Then cut 4m of line as replacement.
4.
Take out the spool and pull off the old line. Put
one end of new line through the spool holes
and pull it until the length is equal between
each part of the line.
5. Wind up the line in the correct direction as
indicated on the spool.
6. Hook each end of the line into the slots on
the edge of the spool, and then put the ends
through the eyelets on the housing. Make sure
that the spring and the washers are in place.
