Published 27 August 2019
Product
PolyCut 27-3 Nylon cutting head with rigid polymer blades suitable for use with STIHL Grass Trimmers and Brush Cutters
Why it was recalled
The screw connections of the trimmer heads may settle over time due to the plastic relaxing. This may result in the screws coming loose in operation. If the screws become loose, there is the potential for the moving parts to detach and fly off.
Hazard
If the parts detach and fly off, this poses a risk of injury to the user and bystanders.
