TO CLEAN UNIT

Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing or

the handle. They can be damaged by certain household

cleaners that contain aromatic oils such as pine and lemon,

and by solvents such as kerosene. Wipe off any moisture

with a soft cloth.

_ ARNING: To prevent injury, turn the unit off

before servicing the cutting attachment.

LINE INSTALLATION FOR THE

CUTTING ATTACHMENT

The trimming line in the cutting attachment may be

replaced by two different methods:

• Winding the reel with new line, or

• Installing a prewound reel

The Correct Line to Use

,_ WARNING: Always use Craftsman® trimmer

replacement line. To avoid injury do not use

metal reinforced line.

It is very important to use the correct size line. Use line

with a diameter of g.08g in. (2.03 ram). The engine may

overheat and fail if you use a size other than specified.

Removing the Reel

1. Hold the reel housing with one hand and unscrew the

Bump Knob counterclockwise (Fig. 19). Inspect the

captured bolt inside the Bump Knob to make sure it

moves freely. Replace the Bump Knob if it is damaged.

2. Remove the inner reel and spring (Fig. 20).

3. Use a clean cloth to clean the inner surface of the

reel housing (Fig. 21).

NOTE: Always clean the reel, reel housing, and shaft

before reassembling the cutting head.
