1. Use a small screwdriver or pointed rod to release line
from locking tabs. (Fig. 8-2A)
2.
Remove remaining line from head.
3. Align arrows on inner and outer spool.(Fig. 8-2B)
4. Cut a length of trimming line approximately 16 feet (5
meters) long.
5. While pushing inner spool down insert each end of line
through eyelets into feed slot on spool divider. Insure
line enters feed slots. Push line until approximately 2
inches (5 cm) appears from below bump knob.(Fig. 8-
2C)
6. Insert each end into locking tabs by pushing the line
end through lower tab hole and looping end back
through upper tab hole. Pull line at eyelet to tension.
(Fig. 8-2D)
7. Once both line ends are locked in place turn inner spool
counter clockwise in direction of arrows to load line.
(Fig. 8-2E).
8. Wind spool until a loop of line approximately 10 inches
(25cm) long is visible. Cut loop in half to create two cut-
ting line ends. Ensure each line end is not more than 5
inches (13cm) long. This will minimize load on engine
during starting. (Fig. 8-2F)
