17 After Finishing Work

When mounted with nylon trimmer line, runtime is
approximately half of the runtime available when mounted
with PolyCut 2-2 polymer blades. To optimize runtime,
STIHL recommends mounting polymer blades on your
PolyCut 2-2 mowing head.
Observe all applicable laws, regulations, standards and
ordinances.
STIHL recommends keeping nylon line or polymer blades in
a water bath for at least 12 to 24 hours before use to
increase their useful life.
