1.) This head is designed to accommodate nylon
line with a diameter of .095” - .130”. The pre-cut
lengths included in the package are 14” which will
provide a total cutting swath diameter of approxi-
mately 13”. However this length can be longer (or
shorter) depending on the following factors:
A. The diameter of line being used
B. The unit’s power
C. The desired cutting speed
D. The desired total cutting swath diameter.
2.) Fold a pre-cut length of line in half.
3.) On the gear case facing side of the head, insert
the two ends of the folded line in to the two holes
(just above the Tanaka logo) and pull them com-
pletely through the underside evenly.
4.) From the opposite side of the head, feed the
lines through the holes located on the side of the
head and pull until they are totally extended

1.) This head is designed to accommodate nylon
line with a diameter of .095” - .105” and can hold up
15’ (total length). The cutting swath (determined by
the length of the line exiting the head from each
side) is variable depending on the following:
A. The diameter of line being used
B. The unit’s power
C. The desired cutting speed
2.) Fold a pre-cut length of line with one side slightly
longer than the other (as shown below).
3.) On the ground facing side of the head, insert the
two ends of the folded line in to the two holes and
pull them completely through (as shown below).
4.) Wind both lengths of line together in either
direction until 8-10” remain. Insert the shortest line
into the nearest exit hole slot then wind the
remaining line to the slot on the opposite side. More
line can be extended (in increments of 3”) by
unwinding both lines to next exit hole. The total line
length (to extend from each side) will be subject to
the factors listed above, however a good starting
length could be 6”.
