Replacing Trimmer/Edger Line
For replacement line, use a nylon monofi la-
ment line of 0.065 inch in diameter. You can
purchase replacement line at most lawn and
garden stores.
To prevent serious personal
injury, never use metal-re-
inforced line, wire, or rope,
etc. These can break off
and become a dangerous
projectile.
Use of line other than speci-
fi ed could cause personal
injury or product failure.

Figure 25 -Winding Line Around Spool
WARNING: CAUTION: REMOVING THE SPOOL
1. Press in the two locking tabs holding the
spool cover to the spool housing (See
Figure 21).
2.
Remove the spool cover and spool
from spool housing (See Figure
22). Note: If spool spring comes off of spool
housing, replace spring into center of spool
housing. Note: If installing replacement
spool and line (P/N BRS65A), skip to step
8. Remove and discard any remaining line
in the spool.
3. Clean grass and other debris from the
spool and spool housing using a brush
(See Figure 23).
4. Insert 1 inch of line through small hole at
the base of spool (See Figure 24).
5. Evenly and tightly wind line around spool
in the direction shown on bottom of spool.
Continue winding until line is just below
rim of spool. (See fi gure 25). Do not over
fi ll. Overfi lling can cause jams.
6. Cut the line. Keep tension on line so line
does not unwind.
7. Insert cut end through eyelet in spool
housing. (See Figure 26)
8. Replace spring and spool into spool hous-
ing making sure line is not caught under
spool. (See Figure 27, page 13)
9. Align tabs on spool cover with slots in
spool housing. Replace spool cover onto
spool housing and snap into place. (See
Figure 28, page 13)
