for easy removal of oil.

How to Replace the Trimmer Line

For the best performance, use a heavy gauge (0.155” diameter)

length guide, located on the shield, to make sure the trimmer

line is the correct length.

Do not allow the length of the lines to vary more than one inch.

This is important to make sure the trimmer head is balanced

and does not vibrate.

NOTE: To extend the life of the trimmer line, keep the trim-

mer line moist. If not kept moist, the nylon trimmer line will

become dry and brittle. Keep extra trimmer line in a can of

water. The line will then stay flexible and easy to change. A

flexible line will also last much longer.

1. Stop the engine. Wait for all moving parts to stop.

2. Remove the worn trimmer line from the line retainer.

3. First, thread the ends of the new trimmer line through the

outside loops. SEE FIGURE 10

4. Next, take the ends of the line, cross over the line retainer, and

thread the ends through the center hold. SEE FIGURE 11

5. Then, check to make sure that the ends of the line are even.

SEE FIGURE 12
