Details

The very powerful STIHL FS 131 R petrol brushcutter impresses landscape maintenance professionals when mowing of larger lawns and plots. The practical loop handle offers you the best possible freedom of movement when working in very confined spaces, for example when clearing between bushes and shrubs. The STIHL FS 131 R brushcutter can also be used to quickly and effectively remove scrub and thorny bushes.

The powerful STIHL 4-MIX® engine delivers sufficient power for working on large areas of tough grass. Automatic decompression makes it easier to start the engine as the effort required on the starter cord is considerably reduced. The reduced-emission engine impresses with its high power and transmits the high torque to the cutting tool via a rigid drive shaft. The single-handed multi-function handle enables you to access all the essential functions quickly and easily. If you want to interrupt your work and restart it, the integrated stop button helps you to restart the brushcutter straight away and continue working without pressing any switches. This brushcutter is equipped with the STIHL anti-vibration system so that your muscles and joints are protected, especially during longer periods of use. The shoulder harness supplied as standard also helps you better distribute the weight of the power tool across your body.

The STIHL FS 131 R petrol brushcutter is equipped with an air filter with a long service life so that you need to invest as little time as possible in maintenance. This enables long changeover intervals and longer operating times without interruption. This means that you can mow even larger areas effortlessly and very efficiently.

Features

STOP BUTTON

RESTART WORK QUICKLY. With the stop button, you can switch off your power tool quickly and easily for a short break, for example. As the button springs back to its original position after actuation, the engine is immediately ready to start again. This provides more comfort after breaks and increases your work efficiency.

AUTOMATIC DECOMPRESSION

EFFORTLESS STARTING. Automatic decompression makes it easier to start the engine. This is because the system automatically opens the intake valve when the engine is started; the opening time of the valve is extended, and as a result the compression pressure is reduced. This significantly reduces the force required on the starter cord.

LONG AIR FILTER SERVICE LIFE

ENSURES LONG CHANGEOVER INTERVALS. Thanks to its long service life, you rarely need to change the easily accessible filter. This saves resources and reduces maintenance effort.

MANUAL FUEL PUMP

A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start.

STIHL 4-MIX® ENGINE

FOR FANTASTIC ENGINE POWER WITH LOW MAINTENANCE. The STIHL 4-MIX® engine is a four-stroke engine that does not require any oil circuit components, thanks to refuelling with an oil and gasoline mix. That’s why it’s more compact, more lightweight, and requires less maintenance than conventional four-stroke engines, while at the same time being powerful and offering a comfortable sound pattern. STIHL 4-MIX® engines comply with the European Stage V emissions directive.

STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM

Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
