REPLACING THE NYLON CORD
Check to see if the nylon head is damaged before replacing the cord. If you can see serious traces of wear
or damage, you must replace the complete nylon head.
•
Stop the engine.
•
Open the nylon head by holding the string head and unscrew the spool retainer nut anti-clockwise, Fig
19.
•
Pull the bobbin out of the nylon head and take out the rest of the nylon cords.
•
Cut two cords, 2.0mm Ø and 2.5 meters long.
•
Make a loop folded at one end of the nylon cord and insert it into one of the holes provided on the bobbin
Fig 20. Wind the line anti-clockwise in this channel maintaining an even, firm tension onto the bobbin.
•
Repeat the above step, using the other channel.
•
After winding the cord, insert both ends into the notches on the bobbin, Fig 21.
•
Check that the spring is fitted to the string head Fig 22.
•
Introduce each end of the cords into the holes provided Fig 22. The cords should stick out appx15 cm
either side.
•
Pull the cords to free them from the notches and refit the retainer nut.
Never use a cutting device other than those supplied by the manufacturer. (Steel cord is never
allowed) Always use original spare parts in order to benefit from continuous warranty
