CLEARING JAMS AND TANGLED
LINE (FIGURES O, P, Q)
WARNING:
Remove the battery
from the trimmer before making any
assembly, adjustments or changing
accessories. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
appliance accidentally. From time to
time, especially when cutting thick or
stalky weeds, the line feeding hub may
become clogged with sap or other
material and the line will become
jammed as a result. To clear the jam,
follow the steps listed below.

NOTE: Make sure that cover is fully
positioned, listen for two audible clicks to
ensure both lugs are correctly located.
Power the appliance on. In a few seconds
or less you’ll hear the nylon line being cut
automatically to the proper length.
CAUTION: To avoid appliance
damage, if the cutting line protrudes
beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so
that it just reaches the blade.

spool caps, etc.) are available through
BLACK+DECKER service centers. To find
your local service location call: 1-800-544-
