Standard Single Line Installation

Go To Step 9 for Splitline™ Line Installation

6.Cut two (2) equal lengths of new trimming line approximately 10 feet (3 m) long.

7.Holding the two pieces of line together with the ends even, insert the ends into the slotted hole in the inner reel (Fig. 14). Approximately 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) of the line will fit in the hole. Do not force line into the hole.

NOTE: When starting to wind the line, take care not to

pull either piece out of the slotted hole.

8.Wind the lines in tight even layers onto the inner reel, in the direction indicated on the inner reel. Place your index finger between the two lines to stop the lines from overlapping, twisting or crossing each other (Fig. 15). Do not overlap, twist or cross the ends of the line. Proceed to step 12.

Splitline™ Line Installation

9.Cut approximately 10 feet (3 m) of new trimming line. Insert one end of the line into the slotted hole in the inner reel (Fig. 14). Only about 1/2-inch (13 mm) of line will fit into the hole. Do not force line into the hole.

10.Before winding, split the opposite end of the line back about 6 inches (152 mm).

11.Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction indicated on the inner reel. Do not twist the line while winding.

12.Continue to wind until there is approximately 6 inches (152 mm) of line left.

NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will stop the cutting line from advancing.

13.Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots (Fig. 16). Leave about 4 inches (102 mm) of line beyond the holding slots.
