Why Choose the STIHL FS 240 C-E?
The compensator carburettor is what sets this apart for genuine agricultural use — it maintains consistent engine speed as the air filter gradually clogs with dust and debris, meaning longer service intervals on farm tracks and orchard rows than a standard carburettor would allow. Combined with the solid straight shaft, it's built for daily heavy use rather than occasional garden trimming.
