MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)
Winding the Existing Reel
1.Take approximately 12.7 m (50 ft) of new trimming line, loop it into two equal lengths. Insert each end of the line through one of the two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 30). Pull the line so that the loop is as small as possible.
Fig. 30
2.Wind the lines, in even and tight layers, onto the reel (Fig. 31). Wind the line in the direction indicated on the inner reel. Be sure not to overlap the two ends of the line.
NOTE: Placing your index finger between the two (2) lines while winding the line will prevent overlapping of the lines.
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will cause the Bump Head to operate incorrectly.

Reinstalling the Reel
1.Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the outer spool (Fig. 33). Place the inner reel into the outer spool. Grasp the ends and pull firmly to release the line from the holding slots in the spool.
NOTE: The spring must be in the center of the outer spool.

3.Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots (Fig. 32).

2.Install the bump knob and tighten counterclockwise (see Fig. 26). Add a small amount of grease or oil to the threads on the Bump Knob bolt to make it easier to remove the Bump Knob the next time. Line installa- tion is now complete.
