Does anybody know how to stop the line from feeding out all by itself? its only my third time using it with the factory line.

Make sure you properly installed the spool according to instructions. your string might be improperly wound...

This trimmer is meant to be self feeding, but it should only be feeding out line as you need it. If it is feeding out more than that, I would check the spool to make sure it and the spring loaded cap are both installed correctly I ususally have the opposite problem, where after extended use, the line heats up and doesn't want to feed out, but it is easily corrected by removing the cap and adjusting the spool. Were you using something other than factory line before?

I don't have an answer, but mine would not auto feed at all - so I am guessing they don't have a very good product here.

Mine did that, and it turned out to be the memory card reader. I bought a newer one, and the lines went away. :)

I have not had that happen to mine ever. maybe there is a method outlined in the operator manual that I never noticed...you can also try to contact the manufacturer directly they have have known about this issue.

That sounds like a short in the line somewhere. Occasionally mine does this as well, and has since it arrived, and I have not been able to remedy the situation. After researching it, I found both should work evenly all the time and this is a problem. Sounds like we need new wires.

Thanks. I was wondering if you could leave it on all the time or just test the line and then remove it.

Mark, This seems to be a common problem with these units. I don't have mine anymore because Consumer Reports Took away their recommendation because some of them were catching on fire. When I did have it, I solved the drain hose issue by gluing in a stopper with silicone glue. I can't remember exactly where the stopper went, but some close examination should allow you to figure out where to put the stopper. It was a small drain hole. Check on google re the fire issue. You may want to try to return it if you can. I got a Frigidare unit which is working fine.

Thank you for this answer. I thought I had a defective unit. How is this not talked about in the manual? Anyway, thanks again.

I am unsure how to troubleshoot such issue. The best idea I would go back to the factory user's guides to see if there is a topic for your concern. If not, I will find out the factory customer service phone number and call them for further assistance. Hope it helps.

Double check in the owners manual for hints. Or call the company for their take on this. If nothing else I concur with others, replace the unit.

no the auto feed does not work I have to manually pull the line out. Most frustrating trimmer I ever owned wish I could send it back.

It might be the tank valve not opening properly. If you shut off both tanks and release any pressure in the lines and then open a tank valve really, I mean really slow it might help. I think the tank valve thinks there is a major leak and shuts off.

to what product are you running thru it? I have never run into that problem! I do know in every system when something runs thru it, it does need some cleaning of the lines depending on how much you use it and what product you use. It is a good system but it is still a machine. I would research from the manufacturer. I know I didn't really help but I hope your research helps.

Is this an initial set up?First thing to check is that you have the intake and discharge lines on the correct sides. Second is something clogging the intake.

Not sure, my system is very quiet after that first fill up. Maybe it's defective, try calling customer service.

That is astonishing! They must have changed their policy since I had a problem, because when I called the factory, they sent me a free new replacement and told me how to install it. I hope you let us know how this plays out.

Hi all,I just got the unit and it does switch well. I have one problem though: once I operate the source linked to OUTPUT B (pause, click DVD menu, ...), the unit shuts off the B output and I have to reset it or reselect the B source each time ! Since it takes 5s for the unit to sync each time you select something, this is getting annoying ! It does not "lock" into the setup I want.Can I disable the "smart" input recognition/crap ?Thanks.

I've never had this problem. My question to you would be: Is your line old, frayed in anyway, or kinked? Try to release the line out all the way and respool it, going from right to left on the spool in a tight and even manner. Let me know how you make out.
