To replace the Spool in the whipper snipper attachment of your Certa 52cc 5-in-1 Garden Cutting Kit, please use the instructions below:
-
First remove the whipper snipper head from the main body.
-
Following this, press the two tabs on the side of the whipper snipper head and remove the top of the head casing.
-
Take the spool from the head casing and remove any excess nylon thread from the head and spool.
-
Take the new nylon thread (you should use a piece approximately 2.5m long) and make a fold in the middle of the thread.
-
The Spool has three rings, the central ring will have several indents. Insert the folded part of the nylon into one of these indents.
-
Wind one side of the wire around the spool, between one side of the central and outer disks, in a clockwise direction. Leave approximately 15-20cms of wire exposed. Once wound, clip the Nylon thread into one of the indents on the outer ring.
-
Wind the other half of the wire around the opposite side of the spool, also in a clockwise direction. Once this side of the spool is wound, clip the exposed Nylon into the other indent on the outer ring. Please note: It is important to ensure the nylon is wound around the spool in the same direction.
-
Following this, insert the wire into the two holes in the head casing, make sure the spring is inserted between the spool and the casing. Push the spool down into the casing, when fully inserted the Nylon will pop out of the indents in the spool.
-
Push down the top firmly to re-seal the whipper snipper head and pull on the exposed nylon to ensure it is fully extended.
-
Re-attach the Whipper Snipper head to the main body of the unit.
