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 instruc‐
tions for the PolyCut mowing head.
The PolyCut can also be equipped with mowing
line in place of the polymer blades.
The mowing head comes with instruction leaflets.

2.17 Risk of Kickout (Blade Thrust)
with Metal Cutting Attachments
WARNING
When using metal cutting attach‐
ments 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.
2.18 Grass Cutting Blade
Use for grass and weeds only – sweep the
brushcutter in an arc like a scythe.
WARNING
Improper use may damage the grass cutting
blade – risk of injury from thrown parts.
Resharpen the grass cutting blade according to
instructions when it has dulled noticeably.
2.19 Brush Knife
For cutting matted grass, wild growth and scrub
and thinning young stands with a stem diameter
of no more than 2 cm – do not cut thicker stems
– risk of accidents.
Use the brushcutter like a scythe (sweep it to the
right and left) at ground level when cutting grass
and thinning young stands.
