Single line can be used on either type of inner reel. Use Figure 35 to identify the inner reel you have. NOTE: Always use the correct line length when installing trimming line on the unit. The line may not release properly if the line is too long. Fig. 35 Loop Single Line Installation Go To Step 8 for SplitLine™ Installation 6. Take approximately 40 feet (12.2 m) of new trimming line, loop it into two equal lengths. Insert each end of the line through one of the two holes in the inner reel (Fig. 35). Pull the line through the inner reel so that the loop is as small as possible. 7. Wind the lines in tight even layers, onto the reel (Fig. 36). Wind the line in the direction indicated on the inner reel. Place your index finger between the two lines to stop the lines from overlapping. Do not overlap the ends of the line. Proceed to step 11.

Pull the line through the inner reel until only about 4 inches is left out. 9. 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. 37). 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.
