MAINTENANCE

 

WARNING: To avoid serious injury, switch off and unplug the

 

tool before performing any maintenance.

 

1. Keep the air intake slots clean to avoid overheating.

 

2. Your trimmer line can dry out over time. To keep your line in top

 

condition, store spare pre-wound spools or bulk line in a plastic,

 

sealable bag with a tablespoon of water.

 

3. Plastic parts may be cleaned by using a mild soap and a damp rag.

 

4. The line cutter on the edge of the guard can dull over time. It is

 

recommended you periodically touch-up the sharpness of the

 

blade with a file.

 

IMPORTANT:To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,

 

repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed by

 

authorized service centers or other qualified service organizations,

 

always using identical replacement parts.

 

TROUBLESHOOTING

 

TOOL RUNS SLOWLY

 

• Check that the spool housing can rotate freely. Carefully clean it if

 

necessary.

 

• Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than

 

approximately 5-3/8 inches (136mm) from the spool. If it does, cut

 

it off so that it just reaches the line trimming blade.

 

AUTOMATIC LINE FEED DOES NOT WORK

 

• Keep the tabs depressed and remove the spool from the spool

 

housing in the trimmer head.

 

• Pull the cutting line until it protrudes approximately5-3/8 inches

 

(136mm) from the spool. If insufficient cutting line is left on the

 

spool, install a new spool of cutting line.

 

• Ensure that the line is not crisscrossed on the spool as detailed

 

in figure N. If it is, unwind the cutting line, then wind it back on the

 

spool neatly so that the lines do not cross.

10

 

• Align the tabs on the spool cap with the cut outs in the housing.

• Push the spool cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into place.

• If the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just reaches the blade. If the automatic line feed still does not work or the spool is jammed, try the following suggestions:

• Carefully clean the spool and housing.

• Remove the spool and check if the lever in the spool housing can move freely.

• Remove the spool and unwind the cutting line, then wind it on neatly again. Replace the spool into the housing.
