Stihl FS240C-E Brushcutter

The Stihl FS240C-E brushcutter is a powerful and versatile tool that is ideal for a variety of tasks, including clearing brush, mowing grass, and trimming hedges. It is powered by a 37.7cc 2-stroke engine that delivers a high power output and excellent torque. The engine is also fuel-efficient and produces low emissions, making it a sustainable choice for any job.

The FS240C-E features a number of ergonomic design features that make it comfortable to use for extended periods of time. The bike handlebars provide a natural grip and the harness distributes the weight evenly across the body. The front handle can also be adjusted to provide the best possible balance for the user.

The FS240C-E comes with a range of attachments that can be swapped out to suit the specific task at hand. The standard cutting head is a nylon line head that is ideal for mowing grass and trimming weeds. A metal blade is also included for cutting thicker vegetation.

The Stihl FS240C-E is a reliable and durable brushcutter that is perfect for anyone who needs a powerful tool for clearing brush and mowing grass. It is easy to start and use, and it comes with a range of attachments to make it the perfect choice for any job.

Reduced-emission engine technology - 2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions.

Large fuel tank - The transparent fuel tank with a volume of 0.75 l ensures long working intervals with fewer fuel stops. The level is easily visible from the outside. Easy to refuel through a large, easily accessible tank opening. (similar to illustration)

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.

Air filter with long service life - The easily accessible paper filter with a long service life means it can go for long intervals without changing. (similar to illustration)

Winter setting slide control - It is quick and easy to switch the setting from winter to summer using the slide control. Using the winter setting will prevent the air filter and carburettor from freezing. (similar to illustration)

STIHL ErgoStart (E) - STIHL ErgoStart cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force. A coil spring between the starter cord and the crankshaft smoothes out force peaks, making them virtually undetectable through the cord itself.

Simplified starting system - Simply set the choke, pump the fuel primer, pull the starter cord and away you go! The running machine then switches off after a brief press of the stop button. Once the machine is at a standstill, the ignition activates again automatically. Thus the ignition is always ready for starting.

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.

ADVANCE Universal Harness -  Soft padding makes work more comfortable during longer jobs.

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

Anti-vibration system - Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
