The STIHL Supercut, Autocut, Polymatic
and Polycut mowing heads produce a
clean and tidy finish.
They are to be used only on brushcut-
ters equipped with a limiter blade in the
deflector in order to keep the line at the
proper length (see "Parts and
Controls" chapter of this manual).
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 with the polymer
blades.
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
cutting blades are easily replaced.

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.
