Mowing Head with Nylon Lines
Nylon line achieves a soft cut for edging
and trimming around trees, fence posts,
etc. – less risk of damaging tree bark.
To reduce the risk of injury, never use
steel wire in place of the nylon cutting
line.
STIHL Polycut Mowing Head with
Polymer Blades
For mowing unobstructed edges of
meadows (without posts, fences, trees
or similar obstacles).
Check the wear limit marks!
If one of the wear limit marks on the
PolyCut mowing head is worn through
(arrow): Do not continue using the
mowing head. Install a new one. There
is otherwise a risk of injury from thrown
parts of the head.
It is important to follow the maintenance
instructions for the Polycut mowing
head.
Risk of Kickout (Blade Thrust) with Metal
Cutting Attachments
When using metal cutting attachments
(grass cutting blade, brush knife, circular
saw blade) there is a risk of kickout
when the rotating blade comes into
contact with a solid object such as a tree
trunk, branch, tree stump, rock or
similar. The machine is thrown to the
right or to the rear – opposite to the
attachment's direction of rotation.
The risk of kickout is greatest when the
black area of the rotating cutting
attachment comes into contact with a
solid object.
Grass Cutting Blade
Use for grass and weeds only – sweep
the brushcutter in an arc like a scythe.
Improper use may damage the grass
cutting blade – risk of injury from thrown
parts.
