move it without depressing the two latches.

2. Place new spool into spoolholder with cut out area of the
spool in line with eyelet as shown in figure V.
3. Release line from cleat and feed line through eyelet (V).

To fit nylon line only:
•
Remember ! Your product is designed to use only
nylon line with a maximum diameter of 1.5mm. Use
only genuine Flymo nylon line.
1. Take approximately 10 metres of line. Insert 15mm of
line into the hole in the spool (W) and wind line in the di-
rection of the arrows on the top of the spool. Leave ap-
proximately 100mm of line unwound and place into
cleat as illustrated in figure W1.
2. Care should be taken to ensure that the line is neatly
coiled on the spool. Failure to do so will impair the
efficiency of the automatic line feed.
3. Then fit spool as described in ‘To fit spool and line
complete’, section above.
Always return the product to its normal operating po-
sition before switching on.
