6. Take approximately 7.6 m (25 feet) of new trimming
line and loop it into two equal lengths. Insert each
end of the line through one of the two holes in the
inner reel, Figure 16. Pull the line through the inner
reel so that the loop is as small as possible.
7. Wind the lines in tight even layers onto the reel,
Figure 17. Wind the line in the direction indicated on
the inner reel. Place your index finger between the
two lines to stop the lines from overlapping. Do not
overlap the ends of the line.
12. Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots,
Figure 19.
13. Insert the ends of the line through the eyelets in the
outer spool and place inner reel with spring inside
the outer spool, Figure 20. Push the inner reel and
outer spool together. While holding the inner reel and
outer spool, grasp the ends and pull firmly to release
the line from the holding slots in the reel.

8. Take approximately 3.65 m (12 feet) of new trimming
line. Insert one end of the line through one of the two
holes in the inner reel, Figure 18. Pull the line through
the inner reel until only about 4 inches is left out.
9. Insert the end of the line into the open hole in the
inner reel and pull the line tight to make the loop as
small as possible, Figure 18.
10. Before winding, split the line back about 6 inches.
11. Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction
indicated on the inner reel.
NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will
cause the cutting attachment to operate incorrectly.
