To know when to bump listen carefully to the motor rpm. When is noticeably
speeds up it is time to bump.
If you neglect this the line may disappear back into the spool housing
giving you a aggravating repair problem.

I have a Craftsman weed wacker with the bump feeder and it works fine
for the last 5 years. Trick is in the line winding as others have
pointed out.

1. Use the correct size refill line
2. Wind in the direction of the arrow on the spool
3. Wind each strand parallel to the other. Don't cross strands
4. Don't wind too tight
5. Bump more often than you think.
