u Release the head-release button clockwise.
Note: The head will only rotate in one direction.
Edging
When being used as an Edger, stones, pieces of metal and
other objects can be thrown out at high speed by the line. The
trimmer and guard are designed to reduce the danger. How-
ever, MAKE SURE that other persons and pets are at least
100 feet (30m) away. Optimum cutting results are achieved on
edges deeper than 2 inches (50 mm).
u Do not use this trimmer to create trenches.
u Using the edging wheel (7), guide the trimmer as shown in
gure K.
u Position the edging wheel on the edge of the sidewalk or
abrasive surface so the cutting line is over the grass or dirt
area to be edged.
u To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the trimmer.
Replacement accessories
Before you begin trimming, only use the appropriate type of
cutting line. Use BLACK+DECKER replacement spool Model
No. AF-100, and replacement cap RC-100. Reload nylon line
(either bulk or prewound replacement spool) as shown in this
manual.
u USE ONLY .065 inch (1.65 mm) DIAMETER ROUND
NYLON MONOFILAMENT LINE. Do not use serrated or
heavier gauge line, as they will overload the motor and
cause overheating, and will not feed properly. This line is
available at your local dealer or authorized service center.
uOther replacement parts (guards, spool caps, etc.) are
available through BLACK+DECKER service centers.
Warning! The use of any accessory not recommended by
BLACK+DECKER for use with this trimmer could be hazard-
ous.
Hints for optimum use
Replacing the spool
uRemove battery from trimmer.
u Depress the tabs (15) and remove the spool cap (9) from
the spool housing (16) in the trimmer head (g. M).
u For best results, replace spool with BLACK+DECKER
model # AF-100.
u Grasp empty spool with one hand and spool housing with
other hand and pull spool out.
uIf lever (17) in base of housing becomes dislodged,
replace in the position as shown in (g. N) before inserting
new spool into housing.
u Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and housing.
u Unfasten the end of the cutting line and guide the line into
the eyelet (19) (g. O).
uTake the new spool and push it onto the boss (18) (g. N)
in the housing. Rotate the spool slightly until it is seated.
The line should protrude approximately 5-3/8 inches
(136mm) from the housing.
u Align the tabs on the spool cap with the slots (20) in the
housing (g. O).
uPush the cap onto the housing until it snaps securely into
place.
CAUTION: To avoid trimmer damage, if the cutting line
protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just
reaches the blade.
Rewinding spool from bulk line (use only .065 in.
ROUND diameter line)
Bulk line is also available for purchase from your local retailer.
To install bulk line, follow the steps below:
uRemove battery from trimmer.
uRemove the empty spool from the trimmer as described in
“Replacing the spool”.
uRemove any remaining cutting line from the spool.
u Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 3/4 inch
(19mm) (21). Feed the cutting line into one of the line
anchoring slots (22) as shown in (g. P).
uInsert the 3/4 inch (19mm) end of the bulk line into the
hole (23) in the spool adjacent to the slot as shown in
(g. Q). Make sure the line is pulled tight against the spool
as shown in (g. Q).
u Wind the cutting line onto the spool in the direction of the
arrow on the spool. Make sure to wind the line on neatly
and in layers. Do not crisscross (g. R).
uWhen the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (24),
cut the line. (g. Q).
uFit the spool onto the trimmer as described in “Replac
ing the spool”.
NOTE: Hand wound spools from bulk line are likely to become
tangled more frequently than BLACK+DECKER factory
wound spools. For best results, factory wound spools are
recommended.
Handwound replacement spools:
#A6170 (25cm) #A6171 (40cm).
Troubleshooting

tions below. If this does not solve the problem, please contact
your local BLACK+DECKER repair agent.
Warning! Before proceeding, remove the battery from the
tool.
Appliance runs slowly
u Check that the spool housing can rotate freely. Carefully
clean it if necessary.
u Check that the cutting line does not protrude more than
11 cm from the spool housing. If it does, cut it off so that it
just reaches the line trimming blade.
Automatic line feed does not work
uKeep the tabs depressed and remove the spool cover
from the housing.
uPull the cutting line until it protrudes 11 cm from the hous-
ing. If insufcient cutting line is left on the spool, install a
new spool of cutting line as instructed above.
