SAFETY
WARNINGS
1. Avoid Dangerous Environments
• Do not operate trimmer/edger in
rain or in damp or wet locations.
• Do not operate trimmer/edger
while under the influence of alco-
hol, medications, or drugs.
• Do not operate trimmer/edger
when you are tired.
• Do not operate trimmer/edger if it
is damaged or not securely and fully
assembled.
2. Keep children away. Keep all bystand-
ers a safe distance from work area.
3. Do not use trimmer/edger for any job
except that for which it is intended.
4. Only well instructed adults should
operate trimmer/edger. Never allow
children to operate trimmer/edger.
5. Dress properly when operating trim-
mer/edger.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
elry that can get caught in the mov-
ing parts of the trimmer/edger.
• Always wear rubber gloves and
substantial foot wear when work-
ing outside.
• Always wear protective hair cover-
ing to contain long hair.
• Always wear a face or dust mask if
operation is dusty.
6. Always wear eye protection that
meets or exceeds the requirements of
ANSI Z87.1.
7. Wear long pants and shoes when
operating this tool.
9. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
the trimmer/edger has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the
other) and will require the use of a
polarized extension cord. e trim-
mer/edger’s plug will fit into a polar-
ized extension cord only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully into the
extension cord, reverse the plug. If the
plug still does not fit, obtain a correct
polarized extension cord. A polarized
extension cord will require the use of
a polarized wall outlet. is plug will
fit into the polarized wall outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the wall outlet, reverse the plug.
If the plug still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician to install the
proper wall outlet. Do not change the
trimmer/edger plug, extension cord
receptacle, or extension cord plug in
any way.
8. Make sure your extension cord is
in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current
your trimmer/edger will draw. An
undersized extension cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating.
e table below shows the correct
size extension cord to use depend-
ing on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next larger gauge cord. e smaller
the gauge number, the larger the cord.
To reduce the risk of disconnection
of trimmer/edger from the extension
cord during operation, use the cord
hitch described in this manual.

10.
Provide Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter (GFCI) protection on the
circuit or outlet to be used for trim-
mer/edger. You may use receptacles
with built-in GFCI protection for
this safety measure.
1. Maintain trimmer/edger with care.
•

riodically, and if damaged, have
it repaired by a qualified service
facility.
• Inspect extension cords periodically
and replace if damaged.
• If trimmer/edger is not working
properly, has been dropped, dam-
aged, left outdoors, or dropped into
water, have it repaired by a qualified
service center.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease.
• Keep guards in place and in work-
ing order.
2. Check damaged parts.
• If a part is damaged, carefully check
the damaged part before using the

ese are available from your local
dealer. Use of any non-Reming-
ton® parts or accessories could lead
to injury to the user, damage to the
unit, and void you warranty.
3. Servicing of Double-Insulated
Tools:
• In a double-insulated tool, two
systems of insulation are provided
instead of grounding. No ground-
ing means is provided on a double-
insulated tool, nor should a means
for grounding be added to the tool.
Servicing a double-insulated tool
requires extreme care and knowl-
edge of the system, and should
be done only by qualified service
personnel. Replacement parts for
a double-insulated tool must be
identical to the parts they replace.
4. Store idle trimmer/edger indoors.
When not in use, store trimmer/edger
and extension cord indoors in a dry
location. Store trimmer/edger above
the reach of children or in a locked
area out of the reach of children.

Figure 4-11: Holding trimmer/edger
Figure 4-12: Advancing trimmer/edger line
To reduce excessive line wear and improve
trimming performance, follow the steps
below to trim grass and weeds.
1. Remove any string, wire, or other ma-
terials that could become entangled
in the trimmer/edger from the trim-
ming area.
2. Hold trimmer/edger using both front
and rear handles (see Figure 4-11).
3. Slowly sweep the trimmer/edger from
side to side or front to back.
4. Do not force the trimmer/edger. Al-
low only the tip of the trimmer/edger
line to cut the grass or weeds.
5. If grass or weeds are tall, cut them in
several increments, starting from the
top and working to the bottom.
To advance new trimmer/edger line, tap the
line advance button on the ground while the
trimmer/edger is running (see Figure 4-12).
e blade attached to the cutting guard will
cut the line to the proper length.
Follow the precautions below to ensure
top line performance.
• Do not hold the line advance button
on the ground. is will allow trim-
mer/edger line to constantly feed off
the spool.
• Tap the line advance button only once
to advance line. If more line is needed,
wait a few seconds and tap again.
• Be sure to advance the line as it wears
down. If you wait too long to advance
new line, the existing line will wear
down too short and can retract into
the spool. If this happens, remove the
spool and reroute the line out of the
spool. Reinstall the spool to the trim-
mer/edger head.
For replacement line, use a nylon monofila-
ment line of 0.065 inch in diameter. You
can purchase replacement line at most lawn
and garden stores.
1. Press in the two locking tabs holding
the spool cover to the spool housing
(see Figure 4-13).
2.
Remove the spool cover and spool
from spool housing (see Figure
4-14). Note: If spool spring comes off
of spool housing, replace spring by
placing the smaller end of spring into
center of spool housing. Note: If install-
ing replacement spool and line (P/N
RS65B), skip to step 13, page 10.
3. Clean grass and other debris from the
spool and spool housing using a brush
(see Figure 4-15).

4. Remove the line retaining ring from
the spool (see Figure 4-16).
5. Measure out 30 feet of replacement
line.
6. Push one end of the new line through
the left line mounting hole on the
spool (see Figure 4-17).
7. Feed 15 feet of the line through this
hole. Feed the other 15 feet of line
through the right line mounting hole
(see Figure 4-18). Pull the line tight
(see Figure 4-19).

across the other line. Insert this line
into the retaining slot between the
upper and lower spool section, then
lay the line into the lower spool sec-
tion. See Figure 4-20 for proper line
placement.
9. Place the line from the upper spool
section through the line retaining ring
(see Figure 4-21).
10. Place the line retaining ring back on
the spool (see Figure 4-22).
11. Position each line section in the slots
on either side of the retaining ring
(see Figure 4-23).
12. Hold the retaining ring in place
and make sure the line remains in
the retaining ring slots. Rotate the
spool while holding the retain-
ing ring in place. e line will roll
onto the spool (see Figure 4-24).
IMPORTANT: Make sure to rotate the
spool so the line winds onto spool in
the direction indicated on the spool
top. Wind line until four inches of
line remains outside the spool.
13. Replace spool onto spool spring and
press spool down. Lay exposed trim-
mer/edger line into slots on spool
housing (see Figure 4-25).
14. Align tabs on spool cover with slots
in spool housing. Replace spool cover
onto spool housing and snap into
