When you need more power to cut through your landscaping tasks, the STIHL FS 111 R trimmer has the extra muscle you’re looking for.

It also features a rubberized loop handle, providing a comfortable grip of product for users to work with ease while cutting through thick and thin.

• The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.

• A majority of STIHL products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
• The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
• Using a shoulder strap or carrying system helps distribute the weight of the equipment for increased operator comfort and improved maneuverability.
• By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburetor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
