2. Then pull the bobbins (16) out of the bobbin cover (15).
3. If you are just replacing the bobbin (16) with a new one, make sure that you first push both ends of the thread through the metal eyelets on the bobbin cover.

(15) thread through.

1. Before attaching the new spool (16) together with the spool cover (15) to the grass trimmer, ensure that the spring is correctly inserted into the spring slot (13). Insert the slightly wider end of the spring into the slot (13), which is located on the spring holder (14).

5. Now insert the new spool (16) together with the spool cover

(15) with the "marked points" into the recesses of the spool holder (14). Once these have been fitted and the bobbin cover snapped into place, you can start working.

The thread length can be changed manually or automatically.

Manual:

For your own safety, remove the battery!

Press the bobbin button (17) with one hand and successively pull the corresponding thread tip to the desired length. When you have finished adjusting the thread length, release the button. If the thread length is too long, the thread will be automatically shortened to the correct length by the blade at the guide wheel (12) when the trimmer is started.

Automatic:

The length of the thread can be automatically increased at any time while the trimmer is running by pressing the trimmer briefly against the ground. The thread automatically unrolls from the spool via the spool button (17)

NOTE: Pressing the grass trimmer to the ground for too long will empty the line spool very quickly.

Replacing the monofilament spool with plastic blades

1. Remove the monofilament spool (16) and insert the replacement head with plastic blades (18) (remember to remove the battery). 2. Remove the spool (16) together with the spool cover (15) as described for spool replacement. 3. Then replace the plastic blade head (18) with the two plastic blades (19). 4. Check that both plastic blades (19) are well seated. 5. Make sure that the spring is correctly seated in the slot (13). If the spring is no longer inserted or has slipped out, correct it. 6. Then insert the replacement head (18). 7. Place it into the recesses of the spool holder (14).

Once these are correctly assembled and the interchangeable head is locked in place, you can start working.

The plastic inserts (19) can be easily replaced. There is no need to remove the interchangeable head (18).

Grasp the plastic blade and push it towards the interchangeable head. Then simply pull the plastic blade (19) upwards.

To attach the new plastic blades (19) to the replacement head (18), simply place them in the head catches as shown in the illustrations below and pull the plastic blades (19) towards you.

Grass mowing:
