  • Product Details

    Stihl FS 55 Brushcutter

    Low weight, compact brushcutter with fully adjustable bike handle for larger mowing tasks. Practical control handle with integral throttle trigger and slide control run/stop selector (Grass blade is optional extra).

    Electronic ignition module

    This ensures reliable starting and trouble-free running. The ignition system is fully encapsulated and thus proof against damp and dirt.

    Manual fuel pump (Purger)

    A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required following extended breaks in operations.

    Bike handle

    When used in conjunction with a harness, the bike handle enables a smooth mowing action. The bike handle allows the machine to be easily guided, making it ideal for working on large areas and thus reducing fatigue.

    Basic harness

    For use with loop handle machines.

    Multi-function control handle

    Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator’s hand never leaves the handle.
