REWINDING SPOOL FROM BULK LINE (USE ONLY .065 IN.
DIAMETER LINE)
Bulk line is also available for purchase from your local retailer.
NOTE: Hand wound spools from bulk line are likely to become
tangled more frequently than Black & Decker factory wound spools.
To install bulk line, follow the steps below.
• Turn off the trimmer and remove the battery.
• Press the release tabs on the line spool cover, as shown in figure Q
and remove the cover by pulling it straight off.
• Remove the spool from the tool and remove and discard all line on the
spool.
• Insert one end of the bulk line into
the hole in the spool shown in
figure T about 1/2 in. (12mm).
• Hold the line in the hole and pull
the rest of the line through the slot
in the spool, shown in figure T.
• Snugly and evenly wind the bulk line
onto the spool in the direction of the
arrow on spool in figure T until it is
nearly full.
• Insert the line end through the eyelet
in the spool hub, as shown in
figure R. Pull the line through the
hole to maintain tension while
placing the spool down into the hub
with the notched side exposed, as shown in figure S.
• Press the spool down GENTLY and rotate it until you feel it drop into
place. (When in place, the spool will turn a few degrees left and right freely.)
• Snap the spool cover back on, insert the battery and turn the tool on.
In a few seconds or less youʼll hear the nylon line being cut
automatically to the proper length.
