Instruction manual

Cutting Head continued
To replace nylon line.
For your convenience it is recommended you buy spool
and line complete. Nylon line only is also available. Both
are available from Electrolux Outdoor Products stockists.
• If you have spool and line complete, follow steps 5
to 11.
• If you have nylon line only, follow the full procedure
below.
• IMPORTANT
Always wind the line onto the upper section of
the spool first.
• Remember! Your Flymo Trimmer is designed to
use only nylon line with a maximum diameter of
1.5mm. Use only genuine Flymo nylon line.
1. Take approximately 5 metres of line. Insert 15mm of
line into one of the holes in the upper section of the
spool (S) and wind line in the direction of the arrows
on the top of the spool.
2. Leave approximately 100mm of line unwound and
place into cleat as illustrated in figure T.
3. Repeat on lower section of spool.
4. Care should be taken to ensure that the line is
neatly coiled on the spool. Failure to do so will
impair the efficiency of the automatic line feed.
5. Remove the cap.
6. Remove the old spool.
7. Place spool into spoolholder.
8. Release one line from cleat.
9. Secure line into slot (Figure R).
10. Repeat for second line.
• Ensure spool is fully located by gently rotating it
during fitment, whilst keeping the spoolholder
steady.
11. Refit the cap.

safety guard, the cutting head (Fig U) and the motor
housing air vents.(Fig V)
4. Inspect the trimmer carefully, especially the parts of
the cutting head.
