2013 STIHL FSA 65
Harnessing the fuel savings and environmental benefits of the new line of STIHL Lithium-Ion technology, the FSA 65 grass trimmer uses a 36-volt battery for gasoline-free trimming applications. Eliminating fuel costs and engine emissions, the STIHL FSA 65 grass trimmer offers the user an environmentally responsible option for trimming tasks. With this new technology, there is no more fuel mixing, no power cords, and greatly reduced engine maintenance. And the FSA 65 is eight times quieter than the STIHL gasoline-powered equivalent, making it ideal for densely populated or noise-sensitive areas.
The STIHL FSA 65 runs at full speed until the battery is depleted, with no gradual drop in power. Designed for user comfort, the STIHL FSA 65 is lightweight with excellent balance and low vibration. High cutting speeds allow the user to complete more trimming in a shorter amount of time. And startups are simplified – just pull the trigger.
Note: FSA 65 Trimmer, battery and charger are all sold separately.
