Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Disengage Trimmer: Ensure your string trimmer is turned off and the power source (battery or cord) is disconnected.
- Access Trimmer Head: Open the spool or trimmer head according to your specific trimmer's manual.
- Remove Old Line: If necessary, remove any remaining old trimmer line.
- Install New Line: Thread the new St Helens trimmer line through the designated eyelets or around the spool. Wind the line evenly onto the spool, ensuring it is taut but not overly tight. Many heads have guides for winding.
- Reassemble Trimmer Head: Close and secure the trimmer head.
- Test: Briefly run the trimmer at low speed to ensure the line feeds correctly.
Compatibility:
This 1.6mm diameter trimmer line is designed to fit the vast majority of standard trimmer heads and popular makes and models. It is recommended to consult your trimmer's manual if you are unsure about line diameter compatibility.
Care:
- Storage: Store the trimmer line in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its flexibility and strength.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the line for wear or fraying during use and replace as needed.
- Cleaning: The line itself does not require cleaning, but ensure the trimmer head remains free of debris.
