Avoiding excessive cutting line usage in your Ryobi electric line trimmer

• Always use the cutting line size that is recommended for your line trimmer. Using cutting line with a smaller diameter than recommended can cause excessive line usage.
• Carefully follow the owner's manual instructions to properly wind line around the line spool and route the line through the cutting head to avoid excessive line usage.
• Don't crowd the cutting line against the ground or other objects such as tree trunks or edging when trimming. Cut grass using the tip of the cutting line.
• Examine the cutting head and spool before each use of the line trimmer. Replace any worn or damaged parts before using the line trimmer.

Installing cutting line on your Ryobi electric line trimmer

• Unplug the line trimmer power cord before installing cutting line.
• Hold the cutting spool stationary and unscrew then remove the spool cap and line spool.
• Cut a length of 25-feet of replacement cutting line.
• Insert one end of the cutting line into the center holder of the spool. Wrap the cutting line onto the spool in the direction indicated on the spool. Leave 4-6 inches of line unwound to thread through the cutting head.
• Clean grass and debris from the spool and cutting head then thread the line through the cutting head and install the spool. Reinstall the spool cap.
