To replace nylon line.
For your convenience it is recommended you buy
spool and line complete. Nylon line only is also avail-
able. Both are available from Flymo Approved stock-
ists.
To fit spool and line complete:
1. Remove old spool.
2. Place new spool into spoolholder with
cut out area of
the spool in line with eyelet
as shown in
figure S.
3. Release line from cleat and feed line through eyelet

• Ensure spool is fully located by gently rotating
it during fitment, whilst keeping the spool-
holder steady.
4. Refit the cap.
To fit nylon line only:
• Remember !
Your product is designed to use only
nylon line with a
maximum diameter of 1.5mm
.
Use only genuine Flymo nylon line.
1. Take approximately 10 metres of line. Insert 15mm
of line into the hole in the spool
(T)
and wind line in
the direction of the arrows on the top of the spool.
Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound and
place into cleat
(T1)
.
2. Care should be taken to ensure that the line is
neatly coiled on the spool. Failure to do so will im-
pair the efficiency of the automatic line feed.
