Insert the end of the line into the open hole in the inner reel and pull the line tight to make the loop as small as possible (Fig. 41 or 42). 10. Before winding, split the line back about 6 inches. 11. Wind the line in tight even layers in the direction indicated on the inner reel. NOTE: Failure to wind the line in the direction indicated will cause the cutting attachment to operate incorrectly. 12. Insert the ends of the line into the two holding slots (Fig. 43).
