To Change Line
Make sure to keep your hands away from the trigger and safety switch to ensure
that the tool is not accidentally turned ON. Place the unit on a fl at surface or upside
down to gain access to the line head.
WARNING:
To prevent injury, keep hands away from triggers during reloading.
USE ONLY 0.080” DIAMETER LINE.
For optimal performance use genuine Weed
Eater replacement line which is available where you purchased the product or by
calling our customer service number (800) 540-5688.
Replacement spools with line (model WRS24) are available as an accessory at
the place of purchase of your line trimmer.
Tabs are located on each side of the line spool cover. Press both tabs on the line
head cover and remove cover by pulling upward. Please refer to Figure-6. It may
be easier to press in one tab at a time. After the tabs are pushed in, lift the spool
out of the housing.
