Mowing Head with Nylon Line
Nylon line achieves a soft cut for edging
and trimming around fence posts, trees,
etc. – less risk of damaging tree bark.
To reduce the risk of injury, never
use steel wire in place of the nylon
cutting line.

bordered by posts, fences, trees or other

If one of the marks on the PolyCut is
worn through (arrow): To reduce the risk
of injury from thrown parts, stop using
the head immediately. Install a new
one.
