STIHL backpack brushcutters -
Ideal for mowing on tough terrain

Steep, dense, overgrown – this is the kind of terrain that the backpacker brushcutters from STIHL most enjoy. Whether on slopes and embankments, in ditches and vineyards, or in fruit plantations, these machines display genuine maneuverability. Thanks to the flexible joint between the engine and the shaft, you save effort – even when working uphill. State-of-the-art start-up convenience: The FR 480 C-F, the top backpack brushcutter model, features STIHL ElectroStart. Innovative technology means that the tool can be conveniently started-up by simply pressing a button on the multi-functional handle, thereby requiring minimal effort. The machine can therefore be started quickly and easily once it has been positioned on the user’s back. The starter battery charges while being used, meaning that the brushcutter is always ready for action.
