USING THE CUTTING
ATTACHMENTS
However, the polymer-bladed STIHL
PolyCut produces a better cut if there
are no plants along the edge of the lawn.
Sharpening is not necessary, and worn
polymer blades are easily replaced.
For an illustration of the various cutting
attachments and instructions on proper
mounting see the chapter on "Mounting
the Cutting Attachments" in your
instruction manual.
!Warning!
To reduce the risk of serious injury,
never use wire or metal-reinforced line
or other material in place of the nylon
cutting lines. Pieces of wire could break
off and be thrown at high speed toward
the operator or bystanders.
!
Warning!
To reduce the risk of severe or fatal
injury from blade contact and/or loss of
control, never attempt to use a metal
blade on an FS model for which it is not
authorized.
STIHL SuperCut mowing head
Fresh line is advanced automatically.
Frayed line is replaced by a simple
adjustment (see instruction sheet
supplied with mowing head).
Using the Mowing Heads
Do not use with mowing line longer than
the intended length. With a properly
mounted deflector, the built-in line-
limiting blade will automatically adjust
the line to its proper length.
STIHL TrimCut mowing head
Mowing heads are to be used only on
trimmer/brushcutters equipped with a
line-limiting blade in the deflector in
order to keep the line at the proper
length (see "Parts and Controls" chapter
in your instruction manual).
Frayed line is replaced by a simple
adjustment (see instruction sheet
supplied with mowing head).
Using the unit with an overly long nylon
cutting line increases the load on the
engine and reduces its operating speed.
This causes the clutch to slip
continuously and results in overheating
and damage to important components
(e.g. clutch, polymer housing
components). Such damage could,
among other things, cause the cutting
attachment to rotate at idle.
STIHL AUTOCUT mowing head
Nylon cutting cord advances
automatically when tapped against the
ground (TapAction).
If the lawn edges are planted with trees
or bordered by a fence etc., it is best to
use a nylon line head. It achieves a
"softer" cut with less risk of damaging
tree bark etc. than polymer blades.
