WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes, resulting in possible
serious injury.
WARNING:
Before inspecting, cleaning, or servicing the machine,
shut off motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
disconnect extension cord. Failure to follow these
instructions can result in serious personal injury or prop-
erty damage.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
Periodically, clean all foreign material from the trimmer head
air vents.
You can often make repairs described here. For other repairs,
have the trimmer serviced by an authorized service center.

of the spool. Wind the first line around the upper part
of the spool clockwise, as shown by the arrows on the
spool. Place line in the slot on spool, leaving about 6 in.
