Always use Craftsman Hassle Free XTRA QUIET Spiral
Line. Choose the line size best suited for the job at
hand. Red colored line is designed for cutting grass
and small weeds. Black colored line is designed for
cutting larger weeds and light brush.
NOTE: Before inserting new line into the holes in the
cutting head, identify the proper holes by following
the directions on the glide plate (Fig. 23). Do not
attempt to remove the cutting head from the unit
when replacing line.
1. Insert both ends of your line into the insertion
holes in the side of the cutting head (Fig. 23).
2. Push the bend in the line until the ends of the line
push through the positioning tunnels (Fig. 24).
3. Pull the ends of the line until the line bend is centered
between the two insertion holes and firmly against the
side of the cutting head (Fig. 25).
NOTE: Some line breakage will occur from:
• Entanglement with foreign matter
• Normal line fatigue
• Attempting to cut thick, stalky weeds
• Forcing the line into objects such as walls or fence post
4. Correctly installed line will be the same length on both
sides.
