Product overview
The STIHL FS 240 Petrol Brushcutter is a powerful and durable machine designed for agriculture, horticulture and demanding vegetation management. Built to handle thick grass, scrub and thorny growth, it delivers the performance needed for challenging clearing and maintenance tasks.
Powered by the STIHL 2-MIX engine, the FS 240 combines strong cutting performance with excellent fuel efficiency, while the large fuel tank allows longer working periods with fewer refuelling stops. The integrated stop switch automatically returns the tool to the start position, enabling quick and convenient restarts after breaks.
Supplied with a STIHL AutoCut 36-2, with a wide 450mm cutting diameter, the FS 240 is ready to tackle dense vegetation straight out of the box. The bike handle supports a natural mowing motion for comfortable operation across large areas, while the ADVANCE Grip handle provides intuitive, ergonomic control.
To improve comfort during extended use, the STIHL Anti-Vibration System helps reduce vibration transferred to the operator, minimising fatigue and strain. A double shoulder harness is included to evenly distribute the machine’s weight, and the long-life air filter extends maintenance intervals to maximise productivity.
Key features
- Versatile brushcutter with 2-MIX engine
- Especially good for agriculture and horticulture
- Bike handle (mowing handle) with ergonomically designed ADVANCE Grip handles
- Padded shoulder harness conserves user strength and enhances comfort
- Equipped with a hardwearing AutoCut 36-2 mowing head
- MANUAL FUEL PUMP: A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start.
- LONG AIR FILTER SERVICE LIFE: ENSURES LONG CHANGEOVER INTERVALS. Thanks to its long service life, you rarely need to change the easily accessible filter. This saves resources and reduces maintenance effort.
- COMPENSATOR: REDUCED MAINTENANCE. The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, which uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain virtually constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance. This means that you can work for a long time without maintenance.
- STOP BUTTON: RESTART WORK QUICKLY. With the stop button, you can switch off your power tool quickly and easily for a short break, for example. As the button springs back to its original position after actuation, the engine is immediately ready to start again. This provides more comfort after breaks and increases your work efficiency.
- ERGONOMIC BIKE HANDLE: EFFORTLESS MOWING OF LARGE AREAS. The ergonomic bike handle helps you mow large areas quickly and effortlessly, as this handle supports a natural brushcutter movement. The bike handle is easy to adjust and secure.
- TOOL-FREE HANDLE ADJUSTMENT: SET THE BIKE HANDLE POSITION. You can individually adjust the ergonomic bike handle (mowing handle) using the central clamping device. Thanks to the tool-free handle adjustment, you do not need any tools for this. The bike handle can be rotated 90 degrees for transport and space-saving storage.
- CHANGEOVER BETWEEN SUMMER AND WINTER OPERATION: EASY CONVERSION THANKS TO SLIDERS. You can easily adapt your work tool to the different conditions of the seasons. A slider allows you to easily switch between summer and winter operation. The winter setting ensures that the air filter and carburettor do not ice up
