Warning!
A loose head may vibrate, crack, break
or come off the trimmer, which may
result in serious or fatal injury. Make
sure that the cutting attachment is prop-
erly tightened. If the head loosens after
being properly tightened, stop work
immediately. The retaining nut may be
worn or damaged and should be
replaced. If the head continues to
loosen, see your STIHL dealer. Never
use a trimmer with a loose cutting
attachment.
Warning!
Replace a cracked, damaged or worn-
out head immediately, even if damage is
limited to superficial cracks. Such
attachments may shatter at high speed
and cause serious or fatal injury.
Warning!
If the head or deflector becomes
clogged or stuck, always switch off the
motor, remove the battery and make
sure the cutting attachment has stopped
before cleaning. Grass, weeds, etc.
should be cleaned from around the
head at regular intervals.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of unintentional rota-
tion of the cutting attachment and injury,
always switch off the motor, move
retaining latch to ƒ and remove the bat-
tery before replacing the cutting
attachment.

Danger!
Do not rely on the tool's
insulation against electric
shock. To reduce the risk
of electrocution, never
operate this power tool in
the vicinity of any wires or
cables (power, etc.) which may be car-
rying electric current.
Check the cutting attachment at regular
short intervals during operation, or
immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior:
– Switch off the motor.
– Move retaining latch to ƒ.
– Remove the battery.
– Check condition and tightness, look
for cracks.
The drive motor is not
waterproof. Never work
with the power tool in the
rain or in wet or very
damp locations.
Do not leave the machine outdoors in
the rain.
Be particularly alert and cautious when
wearing hearing protection because
your ability to hear warnings (shouts,
alarms, etc.) is restricted.
USING THE CUTTING ATTACHMENT
For an illustration of the cutting
attachment and instructions on proper
mounting see the chapter on "Replacing
Nylon Line" in your instruction manual.
Mowing heads are to be used only on
trimmers 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.)
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
motor and reduces its operating speed.
This results in overheating and damage
to important components (e.g. polymer
housing components.)
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 AutoCut mowing head
Nylon cutting cord advances
automatically when tapped against the
ground (TapAction).
After Finishing Work
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool – do not use any grease solvents for
this purpose.
