Winding the existing reel with new line
NOTE: Before installing new trimming line onto the
existing reel, remove any old line from the RapidRewind
Head by pulling the line out of the line loading or locking
holes (See Figs. 15 and 16 for location of holes).
WARNING: To prevent injury, shut off and
unplug the unit before cleaning or performing
any maintenance.
1.
Line up the arrow on the reel with the arrow on the
reel housing (Fig. 14).
Do not use any strong detergents on the plastic housing
or the handle. They can be damaged by certain
household cleaners that contain aromatic oils such as
pine and lemon, and by solvents such as kerosene.
Wipe off any moisture with a soft cloth.
NOTE: Do not wind the reel before the second line is
installed into the reel.
WARNING: Always use the correct line length
when installing trimming line on the unit. If
longer line is used than specified in this manu-
al, the line may not release properly.

Clean the unit and labels using a damp cloth with a
mild detergent.

two eyelets and push it up through the line loading
hole in the reel (Fig. 15). Do not bend the line when
inserting it into the eyelet.
SERVICING OF DOUBLE INSULATED UNITS
This unit is double-insulated. In a double-insulated
unit, two systems of insulation are provided instead of
grounding. No grounding means is provided on a
double-insulated unit, nor should a means for grounding
be added to this unit.
