Repeat until you hear the trimmer line hitting against the
cutter. Do not repeat this procedure more than 6 times.
Make sure the motor is up to full speed before trimming.
To manually feed the trimmer line (H)
If required, the trimmer line can be fed out manually.
To operate:
1. Press and release the manual trimmer line feed button
(H1) while gently pulling on one of the trimmer lines
until the trimmer line reaches the trimmer line cutter.
2. When the required amount of trimmer line is fed out,
gently pull on the second trimmer line. There is no
need to press the manual trimmer line feed button
again.
If the trimmer line extends past the trimmer line cutter, too
much trimmer line has been fed out. If too much trimmer
line is fed out, remove the spool cap and turn the spool
counter-clockwise until the trimmer line is at the desired
length.
To remove the spool cap (J)
1. Press and hold in the two spool cap release latches
(J1).
2. Pull the spool cap (J2) away from the spool holder
(J3).
When re-installing the spool cap
1. Clean all areas of the spool cap and spool holder.
Failure to do so may prevent the spool cap from being
correctly installed in the spool holder.
2. Replace the spool cap, pressing firmly down towards
the spool holder until the spool cap clicks into place.
3. Check that the spool cap is correctly installed by trying
to remove it without pressing the two latches.
To replace the spool and trimmer line complete (K)
1. Remove the old spool.
2. Place the new spool into the spool holder with the
cutout areas of the spool aligned with the eyelets.
3. Release one trimmer line from the notch and feed the
trimmer line through the eyelet.
4. Repeat for the second trimmer line. Ensure the spool
is correctly installed by gently rotating while keeping
the spool holder steady.
5. Install the spool cap.
To replace the trimmer line on the spool (L)
IMPORTANT - Always wind the trimmer line onto the
upper section of the spool first.
1. Cut approximately 6 meters (20 ft) of trimmer line.
2. Insert 15 mm (0.6 in) of trimmer line into one of the
holes in the upper section of the spool.
3. Wind the trimmer line in the direction of the arrows
on the top of the spool. Care should be taken to
ensure that the trimmer line is neatly wound on the
spool. Failure to do so will impair the efficiency of the
automatic trimmer line feed.
4. Leave approximately 100 mm (4 in) of trimmer line
unwound and place into the notch.
5. Repeat on the lower section of the spool.
6. Install the spool and the spool cap.
After you have finished using the trimmer:
1. Disconnect from the outlet.
2. Remove debris from the trimmer shaft and handle with
a soft brush or dry cloth (N). Never clean the trimmer
with water, cleaning fluids, or solvents.
3. Use a soft brush to remove debris from the inside of
the guard, the trimmer head and the motor housing air
vents (M).
4. Inspect the trimmer carefully, especially the parts of
the trimmer head. If the trimmer is damaged in any
way, contact an authorized service center. Never use a
damaged trimmer.
6. Store in a cool, dry place and out of reach of children.
