STIHL PolyCut mowing head
Uses either nylon lines or nonrigid,
pivoting polymer blades.
Observe wear indicators.
WARNING
Three rectangular wear limit marks are
applied to the base (periphery) of the
PolyCut. To reduce the risk of serious
injury from breakage of the head or
blades, the PolyCut must not be used
when it has worn as far as one of these
marks. It is important to follow the
maintenance instructions supplied with
the head.
STIHL FixCut mowing head
Uses pre-cut lengths of nylon line.
Observe wear indicators.
Do not continue using the mowing head
if the raised moldings (1) on the base
are missing or worn – see right
illustration above. The mowing head
may otherwise shatter and flying objects
could result in injury to the operator or
bystanders. Install a new mowing head.
Risk of Kickout (Blade Thrust) with all
Rigid Cutting Blades
WARNING
This kickout (blade thrust) may cause
loss of control of the power tool and may
result in serious or fatal injury to the
operator or bystanders. To reduce the
risk of injury, extreme caution should be
used when cutting with the shaded area
of any rigid blade.
