Troubleshooting
Trimmer line breaks frequently
Check if the line diameter (2.4mm) is correct for your trimmer. Ensure the line is wound evenly and not overlapping on the spool. Avoid cutting through very thick or woody material which can cause premature breakage.
Line does not feed out correctly
Ensure the spool is loaded correctly and the line is not tangled or jammed. Check the trimmer head for blockages. Manually pull a small amount of line if necessary.
Poor cutting performance
Verify that the line is feeding out properly. Ensure the trimmer's cutting head is clean. The line may need to be replaced if it has become worn or degraded.

- Open the spool head of your trimmer according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Carefully feed the end of the SL004 Trimmer Line through the designated eyelet on the spool.
