English
To reduce the risk of injury, always turn
off the engine before adjusting the nylon
line of manually adjustable mowing
heads
Using the unit with over-long nylon
cutting lines reduces the motor's
operating speed. The clutch then slips
continuously and this causes
overheating and damage to important
components (e.g. clutch, polymer
housing components) – and this can
increase the risk of injury from the
cutting attachment rotating while the
engine is idling.
After Finishing Work
After finishing work or before leaving the
unit unattended: Shut off the engine.
After finishing work, clean dirt, soil and
plant residue off the cutting attachment –
wear gloves to reduce the risk of injury.
Do not use grease solvents for cleaning.
Maintenance and Repairs
Service the machine regularly. Do not
attempt any maintenance or repair work
not described in the KombiTool and
KombiEngine instruction manuals. Have
all other work performed by a servicing
dealer.
STIHL recommends that you have
servicing and repair work carried out
exclusively by an authorized STIHL
servicing dealer. STIHL dealers are
regularly given the opportunity to attend
training courses and are supplied with
the necessary technical information.

Only use high-quality replacement parts
in order to avoid the risk of accidents
and damage to the machine. If you have
any questions in this respect, consult a
servicing dealer.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL replacement parts. They are
specifically designed to match your
model and meet your performance
requirements.
To reduce the risk of injury, always shut
off the engine before carrying out any
maintenance or repairs or cleaning the
machine.
Symbols on Deflectors
An arrow on the deflector shows the
correct direction of rotation of the cutting
attachments.
Use deflector in
combination with
mowing heads
only. Do not use
metal cutting
attachments.
Mowing head with mowing line
For soft "cut" – for cleaner cutting too of
rugged areas around trees, fence posts,
etc. – little damage to bark.
The mowing head is supplied with an
information sheet. Only equip the

according to the details in the
information sheet.
WARNING
Do not replace the mowing line with
metallic wires or ropes – Risk of injury!
STIHL Polycut Mowing Head with
Polymer Blades

meadows (without posts, fences, trees
or similar obstacles).
Check the wear limit marks!

mowing head. Install a new one. There
is otherwise a risk of injury from thrown
parts of the head.
