NEUTON CE 6.2 Battery-Powered Mower - Safety & Operating Instructions 49
Maintaining and Storing the NEUTON Trimmer
This section explains how to clean and store the Trimmer, replace the Spool, and change the Spool
Housing.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE SAFETY KEY BEFORE REMOVING THE TRIMMER FROM THE MOWER, PERFORMING
ANY ADJUSTMENTS, MAINTENANCE, SPOOL CHANGES, OR REPAIRS TO THE TRIMMER. ALLOW THE
TRIMMER TO COOL AT LEAST FIVE (5) MINUTES BEFORE SERVICING OR STORING.
Replacing the Spool
Replace the Spool when the Cord runs out.
1. Using two (2) fingers, press the Clips on the
side of the Spool Housing (Figure 39) and
push them UP slightly towards you. The
green Cover will pop up part way and then
remove it. The outer black Spool Housing
stays on the Trimmer.
2. Lift out the empty Spool.
3. Thread the end of the new Cord through the
metal opening in the Spool Housing.
4. Insert the new Spool with the printed side
facing out (so you can read it).
Try gently pulling on the Cord to help seat the new Spool.
5. Replace the green Cover. Make sure the Clips (I each side) in the Cover align with the Slots in the
Spool Housing. If they don’t, press the Clips and turn the Spool Housing until the Clips and Slots
align. The Clips must snap securely into place.
Replacing the Spool Housing
You only need to replace the Spool Housing if it
is damaged or cracked. You do not need to
remove the Shield to replace the Spool Housing.
If the Cord runs out, only change the Spool.
1. Remove the green Spool Cover. See
“Replacing the Spool” for details.
2. Using a flat-head Screwdriver, hold the Shaft
in place (Figure 40) so it won’t turn and
unscrew (counterclockwise) the Spool
Housing with your hand and remove it.
3. Install a new Spool Housing in the reverse
order and securely tighten by hand.
