STIHL FS 131 Petrol Brushcutter
The STIHL FS 131 is a high-performance petrol brushcutter built for landscape maintenance, professional grounds care and tackling large areas of tough grass.

Supplied as standard with the ADVANCE universal harness, AutoCut C 26-2 mowing head and GrassCut 230-2 metal blade, the FS 131 provides versatility straight out of the box for trimming, clearing and heavy grass cutting.

Why Choose the STIHL FS 131?
The FS 131 sits between the lighter FS 91 and the heavy-duty FS 240/FS 361 in STIHL's brushcutter range — genuinely capable of tall grass and rough vegetation over large areas, without the extra weight and bulk of the professional clearing saws. The bike handle and ADVANCE harness combination is built for full working days rather than occasional garden use.
