This heavy-duty professional bike-handle trimmer has a low exhaust emission engine and good power-to-weight ratio.
Landscaping professionals looking for a simplified and convenient trimming solution will love the STIHL FS 131 trimmer. With its low exhaust emission, 36.3 cc engine and a larger fuel tank than the previous model, the FS 131 delivers 30% longer run times. Its bike-handle design includes rubberized grips for enhanced grasp and comfort. Improved air filtration and the STIHL exclusive IntelliCarb™ technology make this trimmer a great choice for pros, but the cherry on top is the solid steel drive shaft that accepts a wide range of heavy-duty cutting heads, including metal blades.
Features
- Air Filter Cover: Easily remove the cover for fast and easy filter cleaning or replacement.
- Anti-Vibration System: STIHL has a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
- Fully-Lined Drive Shaft: A lined shaft provides smooth operation and less vibration.
- Heavy-Duty Steel-On-Steel Clutch: Centrifugal clutch is designed to reduce slippage.
- High-Tech Polymer Housing: Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
- IntelliCarb™™ Compensating Carburetor: The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.
- Loop Handle (R): Loop handle grass trimmers and brushcutters are ideal for trimming between bushes and shrubs and other areas where space is limited.
- Made in America: A majority of STIHL products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
- Multi-Function Control Handle: Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks so the operator's hand never has to leave the handle.
- Protected Choke Lever/Knob: The choke is protected to help prevent damage.
- Protected Spark Arrestor Muffler: Large baffles reduce noise level and contain a screen designed to reduce the emission of sparks.
- Protected Spark Plug: The spark plug is protected yet easy to change.
- Protected or Enclosed Control Cables: Dangling and loose wires are eliminated.
- Purge Pump Primer: By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburetor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
- Reduced-Emission Engine Technology-Caring for Nature: The STIHL Inc. "Caring for Nature" seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines "low exhaust emissions" as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
- Simplified Starting Procedure: To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.
- TapAction™ AUTOCUT® Cutting Head: TapAction™ allows users to adjust the line length simply by tapping the cutting head against the ground.
- Throttle Trigger Interlock: This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
- Upright Translucent Fuel Tank: Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.
