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.
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.
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.
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 "Main Parts" chapter in your
instruction manual.)
FS 56, FS 56 R, FS 56 C, FS 56 RC
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.
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.
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.
STIHL SuperCut mowing head
Fresh line is advanced automatically.
Frayed line is replaced by a simple
adjustment (see instruction sheet
supplied with mowing head.)
STIHL AutoCut mowing head
Nylon cutting line advances
automatically when tapped against the
ground (TapAction.)
STIHL TrimCut mowing head
Frayed line is replaced by a simple
adjustment (see instruction sheet
supplied with mowing head.)
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 to the operator or bystanders 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.
WARNING
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 on
one blade, always replace all blades.
STIHL FixCut mowing head
Uses pre-cut lengths of nylon line.
Observe wear indicators.
