No dirty, noisy petrol engine – no starting-headaches – no restrictive mains-cable: this high-specification cordless grass-trimmer from Stihl is a practical and convenient way to put the finishing touches to your garden.

It’s driven by a powerful but lightweight lithium-ion cell (36v) that develops an impressive 118Wh; and which has none of the memory-effect or self-discharge problems that have long dogged less advanced ni-cad and lead-acid batteries.

The STIHL FSA 65 Cordless Grass-Trimmer employs a durable brushless motor that’s super-quiet in operation, thereby making it ideal for use in built-up areas and other noise-sensitive environments.

It’s equipped with a safety-lock, so there’s no danger of accidental start-up when you insert the battery; and it has a wall-mounting point so you can hang it up in the shed to save space.

This model also features an ergonomic ‘loop’ handle that can be quickly adjusted using a wing-nut – no tools required.

Please note: a selection of batteries and chargers is offered, all of which are available separately.
