Tap and Trim@ Spool Removal

two slots on the bottom of the spool and twist 1/4
turn to release the spool. See Fig. 155.

Tap and Trim@ Spool Line Replacement
Prewound Tap and Trim@ spools are available through
your local Toto retailer.
If
using a prewound spool, skip
down to Tap and Trim@ Spool Installation below.
While prewound
spools
are convenient, a more
economical approach is to wind new line on the existing
spool. Tor0 monofilament line can be purchased in bulk
under
Tor0
part
number 41-6830 for one pound or
41-6830
for
3
pounds.
A
CAUTION:
Do
not
substitute any type of wire
or other string-like
material as trimmer line.
Use only Tor0 approved replacement
monofilament line of
.080”
diameter. Use
of
improper line
could
result in personal
injury.
1. To wind replacement line on the spool, first hook
one end of the line into the keyhole slot in the top
flange of the spool. See Fig. 156.
Figure 156
2.
Wind the line on the spool in the direction
of
the
arrow. Use no more than
38
feet of line as
it
will
otherwise extend beyond the spool flanges and
cause binding. Avoid criss-crossing to help
prevent line advancing problems later.
3.
Hook the end of the line in one
of
the
two
slots
provided in the upper flange
of
the spool to keep
the line tight while installing the spool.
4. Cut the line protruding from
the
keyhole slot
so
that
only 1/2 inch remains.
Tap and Trim@ Spool Installation
1. Align the keys molded into the core with the eyelet
on the drum. It may be necessary to depress the
core and rotate to get the keys to line up properly.
