INSTALLING REEL EASY STRING HEAD

See Figure 10.

 Stop the motor and disconnect from power supply.

 Remove currently installed string head.

 Place the Reel Easy string head assembly on the end of

the drive shaft. Make sure the hex-shaped opening on

the string head assembly seats completely on the drive

shaft. Install the spool retainer to secure. Turn the spool

retainer clockwise to secure.

 Remove the plastic seal from the string head assembly.

Pull outward on the strings to rotate the spool into the

cutting position.

 Push the spool retainer down while pulling on string(s)

to manually advance the string and to check for proper

assembly of the string head.

ADVANCING LINE USING THE REEL-EASY

™

BUMP ADVANCE SYSTEM

Line advance is controlled by tapping the string head’s spool

retainer on grass while running the string trimmer.

 Fully depress the switch trigger.

 Tap string head on ground to advance line. Line advances

each time the head is tapped.

 Several taps may be required until line strikes the cut off

blade.

 Resume trimming.

NOTE: If the line is worn too short you may not be able to

advance the line by tapping it on the ground. If so, RELEASE

THE SWITCH TRIGGER, unplug the unit, and manually

advance the line.

ADVANCING THE LINE MANUALLY

With the motor stopped and the power supply disconnected,

push the spool retainer down while pulling on line(s) to

manually advance the line.

NOTE: Pro Cut II line cannot be advanced. To replace the

line, refer to Installing Line in Pro Cut II String Head later

in this manual.

CUTTING TIPS

See Figure 11.

 Avoid hot surfaces by always keeping the tool away from

your body. (Proper operating position shown in figure 9.)

 Keep the trimmer tilted toward the area being cut; this is

the best cutting area.

 The trimmer cuts when passing the unit from right to

left. This will avoid throwing debris at the operator. Avoid

cutting in the dangerous area shown in Figure 11.

 Use the tip of line to do the cutting; do not force string

head into uncut grass.

 Wire and picket fences cause extra line wear, even

breakage. Stone and brick walls, curbs, and wood may

wear line rapidly.

 Avoid trees and shrubs. Tree bark, wood moldings, siding,

and fence posts can easily be damaged by the line.

GRASS DEFLECTOR LINE TRIMMING CUT-OFF

BLADE

See Figure 12.

The trimmer is equipped with a line trimming cut-off blade

on the grass deflector. For best cutting, advance line until it

is trimmed to length by the cut-off blade. Advance the line

whenever you hear the motor running faster than normal,

or when trimming efficiency diminishes. This will maintain

best performance and keep the line long enough to advance

properly.
