Product Description

The KM 131 R is a STIHL KombiEngine that is designed for professional use. It is ideal for large garden and property maintenance due to its great performance and features specialising it for prolonged use.

This KombiEngine features an updated STIHL 4-MIX engine, which runs on a fuel-oil mix similar to a 2-stroke engine but with the benefits of a 4-stroke. This adds up to impressive acceleration, more power, increased torque, better fuel efficiency, lower noise, and reduced emissions. Naturally, this greatly enhances the machine’s productivity, cost effectiveness, and reduces its impact on the environment.

It is also exceedingly easy to use with its multi-function handle, which allows all engine controls to be operated with just one hand. The quick-release coupling furthers this by allowing attachments to be simply exchanged without the need for tools. Finally, this KombiEngine makes use of a decompression system as well as a manual fuel pump to make starting easier and more reliable.

Note: this is the engine unit only; you will need to purchase at least one attachment to make use of it.

STIHL KombiEngines are a versatile and reliable tool to have in your arsenal. That’s why this KM 131 R features:

  • A STIHL 4-Mix engine (better fuel efficiency, more torque, lower noise)
  • A multi-function handle (everything can be controlled with just one hand)
  • An advanced anti-vibration system (greater comfort for prolonged use)
  • Decompression system (reduces forced needed on the starter rope)
  • Manual fuel pump
  • Electronic ignition module (reliable starts and clean running)
  • Reduced-emission technology (20% lower fuel consumption and lowered exhaust emissions)
  • Long-life air filter
  • STIHL ECOSPEED (variable speed adjustment)
  • Quick-release coupling (simple attachment change)
  • Loop handle (increased precision in constricted areas)
  • Split shaft (easy to transport and store)
  • A wide range of available attachments

Manual fuel pump

The manual fuel pump can be used to deliver fuel at the touch of a button. This means that you need less pulls of the starter cord even after long breaks.

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.

Multi-function handle with stop button

All the engine controls can be controlled with just one hand featuring a stop switch which automatically reverts back to the start position for a quicker, simple restart.

Features in depth

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)

Loop handle

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

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.

Quick-release coupling

The quick-release coupling allows the KombiSystem to be quickly dismantled into two parts for easy transport and storage - and then re-assembled quickly without tools.

Stop switch

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

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.
