STIHL SuperCut 20-2 Trimmer Head

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Read and follow all safety precautions in the manual for your trimmer. Improper use can cause serious or fatal injury!

• Objects may be thrown or ricochet in all directions. To reduce the risk of injury to the operator, never operate a trimmer without a properly configured and mounted deflector. Keep bystanders at least 15 m (50 ft.) away.
• To reduce the risk of eye injury, always wear goggles or close-fitting protective glasses with adequate side protection that are impact-rated and marked as complying with ANSI Z87.1 (US), EN 166 (Europe) or your national standard.
• To reduce the risk of hearing damage, wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear muffs).
• A cracked, damaged or worn out mowing head may shatter at high speeds and cause serious or fatal injury. To reduce the risk of injury from broken parts, check the condition of the trimmer and mowing head before starting work and at regular short intervals thereafter.

Keep mowing lines in a water bath between 12 hours and 24 hours before use to increase their useful life.
