It is important to follow the maintenance
instructions for the PolyCut mowing
head.
The PolyCut can also be equipped with

blades.
The mowing head comes with
instruction leaflets. Equip the mowing
head with polymers blades or nylon line

Risk of kickback with metal cutting
attachments
WARNING
When using metal cut-
ting attachments (grass
cutting blade, brush knife,
circular saw blade), there
is the risk of kickback
when the tool hits a solid
object (tree trunk, branch,
tree stump, stone and the
like). The machine is
flung back – against the
direction of rotation of the
tool.
Increased risk of kickback when the tool
hits an obstacle within the black area.
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.
