4. Put the new spool in the spool housing, thread the line into the hole.
Winding the line
NOTE: Should you wish to wind the line yourself, the instructions are provided below:
Self-winding, however, is NOT recommended because if the line is not wound properly it can
cause the trimmer’s feed system to malfunction. For this reason, users are strongly urged to
purchase the pre-wound spool.
1. Hold the loose ends of the line together with one hand, insert one end of the line into the
groove on the spool.
2. Wind the line following the directional arrows on the spool housing and hook the two
ends into the side grooves.
