Safety First! Please ensure that you have disconnected the appliance from the mains before starting any repair.
Step 2 - Feeding the Line
Unlike the a standard spool and line where you need to feed a specific amount of line, the heavy duty is more like a gardenvac shredding line. The single strand of line can be fed through the eyelets on the spool cover and once secure, you’re done.
The heavy duty line provides better performance for those times when you need to strim stinging nettles and other denser weeds. If you haven't and want to try it to rid your garden of those overcrowding weeds you can get some heavy duty line from our extensive range of garden strimmer spares.
