GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Before each use, inspect the entire product for damaged, missing, or loose parts such as screws, nuts, bolts, caps, etc. Tighten securely all fasteners and caps and do not operate this product until all missing or damaged parts are replaced. Please call 1-800-860-4050 or contact an authorized service center for assistance.

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.

WARNING:

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum- based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury.

Only the parts shown on the parts list are intended to be repaired or replaced by the customer. All other parts should be replaced at an Authorized Service Center.

BATTERY PACK REMOVAL AND PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING

WARNING:

Upon removal, cover the battery pack’s terminals with heavy-duty adhesive tape. Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble battery pack or remove any of its compo- nents. Lithium-ion and nickel-cadmium batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Also, never touch both terminals with metal objects and/or body parts as short circuit may result. Keep away from children. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire and/ or serious injury.

Use only round type .065 in. diameter monofilament string. Use original manufacturer’s replacement string for best performance.

Remove the battery pack.

Push in tabs on side of spool retainer.

Pull spool retainer up to remove.

Remove the old spool.

To install the new spool, make sure the string is captured in the slot on the new spool. Make sure the end of the string is extended approximately 6 in. beyond the slot.

Install the new spool so that the string and slot align with the eyelet in the string head. Thread the string into the eyelet.

Pull the string extending from the string head so the string releases from the slot in the spool.

Reinstall the spool retainer by depressing tabs into slots and pushing down until spool retainer clicks into place.

STRING REPLACEMENT

See Figures 15 - 16.

Remove the battery pack.

Remove the spool from the string head.

NOTE: Remove any old string remaining on the spool.

Cut a piece of string approximately 9 ft. (2.7 m) long. Use only .065 in. (1.65 mm) diameter monofilament string.

Insert the string into the anchor hole in the upper part of the spool. Wind the string around the upper part of the spool clockwise, as shown by the arrows on the spool. Place string in the slot on upper spool flange, leaving about 6 in. (152 mm) extended beyond the slot. Do not overfill. After winding the string, there should be at least 1/4 in. (6 mm) between the wound string and the outside edge of the spool.

Replace the plastic retainer, spool, and the spool retainer. Refer to Spool Replacement earlier in this manual.
