7.Wind the lines in tight even layers, onto the reel (Fig. 6-6). Wind the line in the direction indicated on the inner reel. Place your index finger between the two lines to stop the lines from overlapping. Do not overlap the ends of the line. Proceed to step 11.

Membrane Line Installation

8.Take approximately 10 feet (3 m) of new trimming line. Insert one end of the line through one of the two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 6-6). Pull the line through the inner reel until only about 4 inches is left out.

9.Insert the end of the line into the open hole in the inner reel and pull the line tight to make the loop as small as possible (Fig. 6-7).

10.Before winding, split the line back about 6 inches (15 cm).

11.Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction indicated on the inner reel.

NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will cause the cutting attachment to operate incorrectly.

12.Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots (Fig. 6-8).

13.Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the outer spool and place inner reel with spring inside the outer spool (Fig. 6-9). Push the inner reel and outer spool together. While holding the inner reel and outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly to release the line from the holding slots in the reel.

NOTE: The spring must be assembled on the inner reel before reassembling the cutting attachment.

14.Hold the inner reel in place and install the bump knob by turning clockwise. Tighten securely.

INSTALLING A PREWOUND REEL

1.Hold the outer spool with one hand and unscrew the bump knob counterclockwise (Fig. 6-1). Inspect the bolt inside the bump knob to make sure it moves freely. Replace the bump knob if damaged.

2.Remove the old inner reel from the outer spool (Fig. 6-2).

3.Remove the spring from the old inner reel

(Fig. 6-2). Use a clean cloth to clean the spring, shaft, and inner surface of the outer spool.

NOTE: The spring must be assembled on the inner reel before reassembling the cutting attachment.

5.Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the outer spool (Fig. 6-9).

6.Place the new inner reel inside the outer spool. Push the inner reel and outer spool together. While holding the inner reel and outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly to release the line from the holding slots in the spool.
