EXTENDING THE CUTTING LINE (Fig. 14 and 15)

During operation, cutting lines shorten due to normal wear.

For greater convenience and efficiency, your trimmer has been equipped

with a bump feed head that allows you to simply bump the trimmer head to

extend the cutting lines while the trimmer is operating.

1. While the trimmer is on and spinning, gently bump the spool housing on a

firm surface (hard ground or sidewalk). This should release additional cutting

line from the spool.

2. If no line is released, bump the trimmer head more sharply or try bumping it

on a firmer surface.

3. If there is no change in the cutting line length, un-plug the trimmer's pigtail

power cord from the extension cord. After the trimmer head stops rotating,

gently pull at the cutting lines manually. Once the lines are pulled out (extended),

plug the trimmer's pigtail power cord into the extension cord and resume cutting.

4. If the cutting line still does not feed from the spool, the spool might be empty

or the cutting line may be tangled or jammed on the spool. Un-plug the

trimmer's pigtail power cord from

the extension cord. After the trimmer Fig. 15

head stops rotating, remove the

spool (see steps 1 through 3 in

"Removing the Spool" on page 15).

If the line is tangled or jammed,

untangle and replace the line,

see page 16. If the spool is empty,

replace the spool, see page 15.

A WARNING:To avoid injury, ALWAYS turn off and disconnect the

trimmer from the power outlet BEFORE checking or installing parts,

cleaning the trimmer or making any adjustments.
