Product Description

The FS 131 is STIHL’s most powerful petrol brushcutter designed for landscape maintenance, suiting it to tough tasks with large areas of tall grass and vegetation.

It features a powerful 4-stroke engine, which runs on a fuel-oil mix just like a 2-stroke, but has all of the power, torque, reduced emissions, lower noise, and improved fuel efficiency of a 4-stroke. Naturally, this grants you the ability to complete your tasks quicker, quieter, and more easily.

The combination of bike handle design and high-quality harness make this brushcutter highly manoeuvrable and comfortable to use over long periods. Also, to suit your ideal working position, the handlebar can be fully adjusted without the need for any tools.

Thanks to the decompression system, manual fuel pump, and multi-function handle, this brushcutter is very easy to start, requiring less steps and little effort.

This machine also comes complete with two cutting attachments: a sturdy, precision crafted metal blade and a STIHL AutoCut mowing head.

STIHL professional brushcutters are innovative and built-to-last. That’s why this FS 131 features:

  • A STIHL 4-mix engine (high torque, enhanced fuel efficiency, low noise, more power)
  • Decompression system (less force on starting rope needed)
  • Manual fuel pump (reduces number of starting strokes)
  • Adjustable bike handle (smooth mowing action)
  • Multi-function handle (engine, speed controls, and stop switch)
  • Advance universal harness with soft padding
  • Anti-vibration system (comfort and reduced injury risk)
  • Long-life air filter
  • Large 0.7-litre fuel tank
  • Supplied with both metal grass blade and AutoCut mowing head

Decompression system

The decompression valve allows some of the compression pressure in the cylinder to escape, so less force on the starter rope is needed.

Stihl 4-mix engine

You can always rely on STIHL to keep setting new benchmarks this time with 4-stroke mixed lubrication technology The STIHL A-MIX engine, which runs on a fuel-oil mix just like a 2-stroke, offers the benefits without the compromises of 4- stroke power. STIHL 4-MIX engine technology provides fast acceleration, more power, added torque, lower noise, reduced emissions and increased fuel efficiency to complete jobs quickly and more easily.

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)

Features in depth

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.

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.

Stop switch

The multi-function control handle features a stop switch which automatically reverts back to the start position for a quicker, simple restart.

Loop handle

The loop handle is ideal for working in confined spaces, eg tidying between shrubs and bushes.
