Featuring a rigid drive-shaft & driven by a 37.7cc engine developing an impressive 2.3hp, the professional-grade STIHL FS360 C-E will breeze its way through large areas of dense grass & weed. The engine itself has been equipped with STIHL’s stratified-charge technology, whereby fuel-wastage during the combustion-cycle is kept to an absolute minimum.

The STIHL FS410 C-E is characterised by its heavy-duty construction-quality; high-torque performance; & superior cutting ability – a combination the makes it perfect for use by both local authorities & qualified homeowners maintaining substantial grounds. The st&-out feature among many has to its 41.6cc (2.7hp) two-stroke engine, which makes the most of the latest stratified-charge technology. This works to reduce fuel-wastage during the charge-cycle, thereby lessening fuel-consumption by a valuable 20% & keeping exhaust emissions at a very low level. The engine also features a carburettor compensator, which works to prevent the fuel/air mixture becoming excessively rich as the air-filter becomes progressively more & more clogged-up, in turn ensuring optimum performance levels & efficiency are maintained over time (you don’t need to clean the filter until a noticeable power-drop occurs). So you can achieve a smooth, side-to-side mowing action, STIHL have equipped this model with a ‘U’ handle; the handle of choice for the professional landscaper. Four-point vibration-reduction & an ergonomic trigger grip contribute further to ease-of-use. A fatigue reducing shoulder harness is included. Other key features include Ergo Start, which means only the gentlest of pulls on the starter-rope is needed; & tool-free handlebar adjustment for fast set-ups when in the field (the handlebar rotates through 90° for more compact transport & storage). An Auto Cut 40-2 nylon-line head is included, with a metal blade available separately. ...
