Do not overload your trimmer. It operates

best at high speeds.

On long grass, start at the top.

Take small cuts.

If your trimmer features a cord restraint,

loop a length of cord through the restraint to

prevent the plug and socket coming apart

accidentally if the cord is pulled.

Feeding out more nylon line (Fig. F)

Note: There must be a minimum of 5cm

(2 inches) of nylon line protruding from the

spool cover before your manual-feed trimmer

is operated:

• Hold the spool housing firmly with one

hand, and the nylon line with the other,

then pull the nylon line out of the slot.

• Pull the nylon line out of the spool

housing in the direction of arrow (a).

• Continue to pull the nylon line out of the

spool housing, in the direction of arrow

(b), until there is sufficient line to reach

the edge of the guard, then pull the nylon

line down into the next slot in the spool

housing as indicated by arrow (c).

Note: When your trimmer is operated for the

first time, any excess line will be cut off by

the blade housed in the guard. This is also

the case for any subsequent line adjustment.

Because line cut off by the trimming blade in

the guard may be ejected, it is important that

the amount of excess line is kept to a

minimum. Where an excessive amount of

line is pulled out, the line should be cut back

to the outside of the guard before switching

on your trimmer.

• Your manual feed trimmer is now ready

for use.

Fitting a new spool of nylon line

(Fig. G)

• Remove the spool and inner cover by

pushing down and turning anticlockwise

in the direction of arrow.

Fit a new, full spool as described in

‘Assembling the spool cover’. Alternatively, fit

new nylon line to the empty spool as follows:

• Locate one end of the nylon line in one of

the grooves in the spool and wind the

line on to the spool in the direction of the

arrow (anti-clockwise) until it is full.

• Fit the inner cover onto the spool and fit

the spool onto your trimmer as described

in ‘Assembling the spool cover’.

Replacement line

A new spool containing 5.5 metres of nylon line may

be purchased from your Black & Decker agent.

Alternatively, replacement lines containing 25 to 50

metres of line are available.

For maximum reliability never put on a heavier or

lighter line (eg. fishing line) which will cause motor

failure or reduce cutting performance.

Care and maintenance

• For the best performance, please keep the nylon

line, spool and air slots in your trimmer body

clean. Use a dry brush or cloth to remove grass,

sap or other dirt.

• Plastic parts may be cleaned by using a mild

soap and a cloth dampened with hot water.

Do not use any other type of detergent, cleaner

or solvent which might contain chemicals that

could seriously damage the plastic. Do not spray

your trimmer with water.

• Self lubricating bearings are used in this tool and

so lubrication is not required.

Fault finding

Before checking your trimmer for any faults,

disconnect it from the mains.

• If your trimmer vibrates, remove the spool and

replace it in a new position. If this does not cure

the problem try removing the spool and

rewinding the nylon line more tightly on the spool

before replacing it.

• If your trimmer will not start check that all power

cables are properly connected. If this does not

work, check your power point then check the

fuse and wiring on the cable extension plug and

female connector.

What to do if your string trimmer

needs repair
