Mowing Head with Nylon Lines
Nylon line achieves a soft cut for edging
and trimming around fence posts, trees,
etc. – less risk of damaging tree bark.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, never use
steel wire in place of the nylon cutting
line.
STIHL PolyCut 6-3 Mowing Head with
Polymer Blades
For mowing unobstructed edges of
meadows (without posts, fences, trees
or similar obstacles).
It is important to follow the maintenance
instructions for the Polycut mowing
head.
Check the wear limit marks!
Wear limit marks are integrated in the
base of the PolyCut.
Do not continue using the PolyCut 6-3 if
one of the circular holes (1; arrow)
becomes visible or if the projecting rim
(2; arrow) has worn away. Install a new
mowing head.
WARNING
If the wear limit marks are ignored, there
is a risk of the cutting tool shattering and
flying parts injuring the operator or
bystanders.
To reduce the risk of accidents from
shattered blades, avoid contact with
stones, metal and similar solid objects.
Check PolyCut blades for cracks at
regular intervals. If a crack is found in
one of the blades, always replace all the
blades.
Use deflector in
combination with
mowing heads
only. Do not use
metal cutting
attachments.
