PARTS GUIDE
How to choose your brushcutter line?
The choice rests on two criteria: the diameter (linked to power/engine size) and the shape (linked to the type of work). Also check compatibility with your head.

DIAMETER + SHAPE
Two main criteria: the diameter (power/engine size) and the shape (type of work). Compatibility also depends on your head: check its manual.

CHOOSING THE LINE SHAPE |
| Shape | Strengths & limits |
| Round | Many diameters, even cut; mainly fine to medium grass. |
| Square | Very tough, effective for clearing; a more « chopped » cut, noisier. |
| Star | Versatile (finishing and tall grass), even cut; compatible head required. |
| Serrated | Very sharp, tough vegetation; for powerful machines only, noisy. |
| Twisted | Very durable, less noise and vibration; more expensive. |

STORING YOUR LINE WELL |
|
KEEP THE LINE SUPPLE
The line needs a little moisture to stay supple. Keep it away from heat, in a slightly humid place. Tip: soak the spool for a few hours from time to time.
