Stihl AutoCut 4006 710 2103 Dual-Line Trimmer Head 5-2 (.080/.095) Tap-Feed Bump Advance

STIHL AutoCut 4006 710 2103 is a tap-feed dual-line trimmer head that accepts 5-2 nylon line in .080" standard or optional .095" diameter for efficient edging, trimming, and mowing.

This compact replacement head fits a wide range of STIHL straight-shaft trimmers and is engineered to make line changes and on-the-job feeding fast and predictable. The AutoCut's tap-to-advance design dispenses nylon line automatically when you bump it on the ground, eliminating manual threading while preserving clean cutting performance. Built for the landscaper who values uptime and simple maintenance, the 5-2 blade configuration balances durability with smooth operation.

How does the AutoCut 5-2 head feed line during work?

The AutoCut uses a bump-feed mechanism that advances line when you gently tap the head on the ground. That tap action pushes a spring-loaded spool, releasing pre-wound nylon line without stopping the trimmer. Feed is controlled and predictable so you avoid wasting line or frequent stops.

• Bump/tap to advance line — no disassembly required
• Spring-loaded spool keeps tension for consistent feed
• Designed for quick, on-site replenishment while trimming

What line sizes and configurations work with this trimmer head?

The factory default accepts .080-inch nylon line and there’s an option to use heavier .095-inch line when you need extra abrasion resistance. The head is configured for a double-line setup—two cutting lines exiting opposite sides—so it delivers wider swath cutting than a single-line spool. Always verify compatibility with your specific STIHL shaft model before installation.

• Standard: .080-inch nylon line for general-purpose trimming
• Optional: .095-inch for tougher, longer-lasting cuts
• Double-line layout produces a broader cutting swath for faster work

How easy is maintenance and line replacement?

Maintenance is straightforward: remove the cap, replace the pre-cut line or spool, and reassemble. The AutoCut design minimizes small parts and complicated threading sequences so even occasional users can change line quickly. Regular inspection of spool and cap for wear ensures reliable bump-feed performance.

• Simple cap removal for spool access
• Pre-wound or cut-to-length line options supported
• Inspect and replace worn parts to maintain bump-feed action

Will this head fit my STIHL trimmer model?

The AutoCut 4006 710 2103 is compatible with many straight-shaft STIHL models that accept AutoCut heads. Fit varies by trimmer generation and shaft coupling, so check your operator manual or model-specific parts list. If uncertain, provide your trimmer model number to confirm fit before purchase.

• Designed for straight-shaft STIHL trimmers that accept AutoCut heads
• Verify model number and parts compatibility with your manual
• Contact dealer or reference parts lookup when in doubt
