Trimmer line extension (automatic) [ Fig. O15 ]:
A clean cut is achieved only with the maximum trimmer line
(13)
length.
The trimmer line
(13)
is lengthened automatically when the spool comes to
a standstill after switch off.
As the trimmer line can only be lengthened in small increments, it can
be necessary in some cases to repeat the switch-off / switch-on action
several times (up to 6 times). Important is that the spool comes to
a complete standstill each time.
The trimmer line
(13)
has been sufficiently lengthened when, after switch-on,
it audibly strikes the line limiter
(17)
.
The FLYMO Spool and line Art. FLY098 / 535670090 or the FLYMO Trim-
mer line Art. NLO012 / 577616312 have to be replaced when the trimmer
line has been used up.
