The cutting head includes a first linear flange, a second linear flange substantially parallel to the first linear flange and a unit for holding a cutting bit. A holding jaw is provided for being fixed to the adapter and for engagement with at least one of the linear flanges on the cutting head, and a clamping device for clamping the at least one holding jaw between the at least one flange of the cutting head and the adapter. At least one further clamping device is connected to the adapter for engagement with the second or the linear flanges. Furthermore a cutting head and an adapter is defined.
