Refilling the cutting string
Block the gearbox using the hex key.
Unscrew the nylon head from the angular
gearbox shaft, turning it clockwise.
Push latches (1) on sides of the nylon head and
remove the cover with the spool.
Take off the spool (2) and remove the rest of the
nylon string.
Prepare 6 m of new nylon string max. Ø 2,4 mm
and fold it in the middle (3), creating a loop.
Put the loop created in the middle of the string
into the groove in the spool (3) and wind both
ends of the string up on the coil (4). Pay attention
to the correct direction of winding.
Secure both ends of the string in the side notches
of the coil (5), so that about 10 cm of the string
remain free at both sides of the coil.
Put the coil into the nylon head cover (6).
Release the string ends from the coil notches and
draw them through the openings in the nylon
head cover.
Install the nylon head cover with the coil back and
secure it with the latches.
Use only original nylon string with
recommended diameters according to
the technical specification. If a nylon
string with too big diameter is used, it
can result in incorrect function of the
nylon
head
and
lower
cutting
performance.
!
Never replace the nylon string with another type
of material, such as steel wire, etc.
!
Don’t use strings reinforced with a metal.
