SERVICING YOUR HONDA TRIMMER

7. Wind both lines tightly and evenly from side to

side ignoring the ridge. Feed the line while
turning the spool in the direction of the arrow.
Do not allow the line to get twisted.
It is important to prevent the two lines from
getting twisting over each other. Position a
finger between the lines as you turn the spool
to prevent the lines from twisting.

8. When you have about 6 inches (150 mm) of

line remaining, press the lines into the two
notches on the bottom of the spool. This will
hold the lines on the spool for reassembly.

9. It may be necessary to push down and rotate

the outer drive until the round lugs align with
the metal eyelets.
Feed both line ends through the metal eyelets
in the housing.
Align the channels in the spool with the round
lugs on the outer drive. With the channels and
notches aligned with the metal eyelets, slide
the spool into the housing with a continuous
snap-in motion. Be careful not to let the line
slip under the spool. When the spool reaches
the bottom of the housing, the lines should
snap out of the spool notches.
If you are not sure if the lines have snapped
out of the notches, gently pull the spool away
from the housing about an 1/8 inch to inspect
the lines. If necessary, gently pull each line
until your hear it snap out of the notch.

10. Hold the housing and rotate the spool in the

direction of the arrow to lock the round lug into
the half-round locking hole. Trim the lines so
they are equal length.
