SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: POLARIZED PLUGS

⚠CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will require the use of a polarized extension cord. The trimmer plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. This plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not change the equipment plug, extension cord receptacle, or extension cord plug in any way.

SAFETY WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS: EXTENSION CORDS

⚠ WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, use only with an extension cord intended for outdoor use, such as an extension cord of cord type SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-

A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. If the extension will be used outside, the cord must be suitable for outdoor work. The letters "WA" on the cord jacket indicate that the cord is suitable for outdoor use.

For trimming, the trimmer head should be in the position shown in figure L. If it is not:

  • Disconnect the plug from the power source.
  • Release the height adjust locking clamp (G1).
  • Hold the trimmer with one hand on the auxiliary handle and one hand on the tube near the trimmer head. Then rotate the tube and head clockwise.
  • Close the height adjust locking clamp.
  • With the unit on, slowly swing the trimmer side to side as shown in Figure L.

NOTE: The tube and head will only rotate in one direction.

EDGING MODE

For edging, the trimmer head should be in the position shown in figure M. If it is not:

  • Disconnect the plug from the power source.
  • Release the height adjust locking clamp (G1).
  • Hold the trimmer with one hand on the auxiliary handle and one hand on the tube near the trimmer head. Then rotate the tube and head counterclockwise.
  • Close the height adjust locking clamp.

NOTE: The tube and head will only rotate in one direction.

NOTE: The Auto Feed System may not operate correctly if wheeled edge guide is not used.

EDGING

Optimum cutting results are achieved on edges deeper than 2 inches (50 mm)

  • Do not use this appliance to create edges or trenches.
    • Using the edging wheel, guide the appliance as shown in figure M.
  • 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.

NOTE: You will experience faster than normal cutting line wear if the edging wheel is positioned too far from the edge with the cutting line positioned over the sidewalk or abrasive surface.

• To make a closer cut, slightly tilt the appliance.

CUTTING LINE / LINE FEEDING

⚠CAUTION: Only use the appropriate type of cutting line.

Use Black+Decker replacement spool Model No. SF-080.

NOTE: USE ONLY .080 inch (2.0 mm) DIAMETER ROUND NYLON MONO FILAMENT LINE. Do not use serrated or heavier gauge line, as they will overload the motor and cause overheating. Your trimmer uses .080 inch (2.0 mm) diameter, ROUND nylon line. During use, the tips of the nylon lines will become frayed and worn and the special self feeding spool will automatically feed and trim a fresh length of line. DO NOT BUMP unit on ground in attempt to feed line or for any other purposes. Cutting line will wear faster and require more feeding if the cutting or edging is done along sidewalks or other abrasive surfaces or heavier weeds are being cut.

CLEARING JAMS AND TANGLED LINE (FIGURES N, O, P)

⚠ WARNING: Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally. From time to time, especially when cutting thick or stalky weeds, the line feeding hub may become clogged with sap or other material and the line will become jammed as a result. To clear the jam, follow the steps listed below.

  • Disconnect the plug from the power source.
  • Press the release tabs on the line spool cap, as shown in figure N and remove the cap by pulling it straight off.
  • Pull the nylon line spool out and clear any broken line or cutting debris from the spool area.
  • Place spool and line into spool cap with line “parked” in slots provided as shown in figure O1.
  • Insert the line end through the appropriate hole in the spool cap. Pull slack line through until it pulls out of the holding slots as shown in figure O2.
  • Press the spool down GENTLY and rotate it until you feel it drop into place and then push to snap into place. (When in place, the spool will turn a few degrees left and right freely).
    • Take care to keep the line from becoming trapped under the spool.
  • Align the spool cap tabs with the slots on the spool housing (figure P).
  • Snap the spool cap back on as shown in figure P by depressing lugs and pressing into spool housing.

NOTE: Make sure that cover is fully positioned, listen for two audible clicks to ensure both lugs are correctly located. Power the appliance on. In a few seconds or less you'll hear the nylon line being cut automatically to the proper length.

NOTE: Other replacement parts (guards, spool caps, etc.) are available through Black+Decker service centers. To find your local service location call: 1-800-544-6986 or visit www.blackanddecker.com.

⚠ WARNING: The use of any accessory not recommended by Black+Decker for use with this appliance could be hazardous.

REPLACING THE SPOOL (FIGURES N, O, P, Q)

⚠ WARNING: Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

⚠️CAUTION: To avoid appliance damage, if the cutting line protrudes beyond the trimming blade, cut it off so that it just reaches the blade.

  • Depress the tabs and remove the spool cap from the spool housing on the trimmer head figure N.
  • Grasp empty spool with one hand and spool cap with other hand and pull spool out.
  • Replace spool with Black+Decker model # SF-080.
  • Remove any dirt and grass from the spool and spool cap.

- Snap the spool cap back on as shown in figure P by depressing lugs and pressing into spool housing.

NOTE: The line should protrude approximately 4-13/16 inches (122mm) from the housing.

REWINDING SPOOL (FIGURES R, S)

⚠ WARNING: Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the appliance accidentally.

NOTE: USE ONLY .080 inch (2.0 mm) DIAMETER ROUND NYLON MONO FILAMENT LINE. Do not use serrated or heavier gauge line, as they will overload the motor and cause overheating.

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.

To rewind spool, follow the steps below:

  • Remove the empty spool from the appliance as described in "REPLACING THE SPOOL".
  • Make a fold at the end of the cutting line at about 3/4 inch (19mm)(R1).
  • Insert the folded cutting line into the upper hole inside of the spool (R2) as shown in figure R3.
  • 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 figure S.
  • When the wound cutting line reaches the recesses (R4), cut the line and dock it in the spool line slots (R5).
  • Fit the spool cap onto the appliance as described in "REPLACING THE SPOOL" (figures O, P).
