Replacement blade guard designed for petrol grass trimmers that use a Ø50 mm metal cutting blade. This GEKO accessory provides a protective cover that shields the operator and the machine from flying debris, secures the metal blade in place and helps maintain safe working distance when trimming near walls, fences and dense vegetation. The guard is intended for handheld petrol trimmers configured for a 50 mm blade mounting and is supplied as a direct accessory option for maintenance and quick replacement.
Advantages
The guard reduces the risk of impact from stones and grass fragments, limiting debris projection and protecting the trimmer housing. It stabilizes the mounting of the Ø50 mm metal blade during operation, which improves cutting consistency and reduces vibration transfer. Made for easy installation and removal, the guard supports routine blade changes and maintenance without requiring major modifications to the tool.

How to use
Before installation, ensure the trimmer is switched off and the spark plug lead is disconnected to prevent accidental starting. Remove the old guard following the manufacturer’s instructions for your trimmer model, position the replacement guard over the blade mounting, and secure it according to the tool’s fastening method. Verify that the Ø50 mm metal blade is mounted correctly, that fasteners are tight, and that the guard provides the required clearance from the blade. After installation, perform a short test run at low throttle to confirm secure fit and absence of unusual vibration.
Usage recommendations
Inspect the guard regularly for cracks, deformation or excessive wear and replace it if damaged. Always use the guard together with the correct Ø50 mm metal blade specified for your trimmer and wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection, gloves and long clothing when operating the machine.
