German designed, they are powerful and reliable and made for a long hard life.

See these pages for the full selection of Stihl brushcutters available, but to give you an idea of the machines you can buy, here are three from across their range.

A neat little easy starting machine

is the STIHL FS55 Light 0.75KW Brushcutter with a 27.2 cc engine designed to sip fuel and keep harmful emissions to a minimum.

If you have a larger area to clear,

then you may find the STIHL FS90 Powerful Brush Cutter what you want.

This one is made to frequent use and tougher tasks and is powered by a 28.4 cc engine with advanced technology to produce 80 per cent fewer emissions and great torque.

And this is one of the most powerful clearing tools available designed to rip through those areas infested with gorse, brambles and the thickest weeds.

The STIHL FS490 C-EM Professional Clearing Saw has a really heavy-duty blade and is powerful enough to cut through young saplings.

Powering it is a 51.6 cc engine controlled by Stihl’s M-Tronic electronic management system to give top performance in all sorts of conditions and minimise fuel consumption.

Fitted with chopper style handlebars it has a four point vibration damping system and comes with a shoulder harness.
