GrassCut 250-32, low spin
Flying stones and gravel often create problems when mowing with clearing saws on traffic islands or in public parks and green spaces. STIHL has the answer: the low-spin 250-32 grass-cutting blade with KWF certificate reduces the safety distance from objects and vehicles to three metres. Thanks to the special tooth shape, the risk of particles flying around is reduced to a minimum. The result is greater safety, maximum working comfort and quicker results.

Battery belt with harness
Prolonged periods of work in garden and landscape maintenance can put muscles and joints under strain. The STIHL cordless belt with harness is a welcome aid. Its well-thought-out ergonomic design distributes weight across the hips and shoulders. In addition, you can attach the accessory bag for the cordless belt to the strap, which allows you to carry another battery from the AP System or other accessories. The STIHL cordless belt also gives you the option of directly attaching the STIHL support cushion. This makes using suitable STIHL power tools such as cordless brushcutters or cordless blowers, for example, even easier and more convenient.
Energy is transferred to the cordless power tool in combination with other accessories: for example via the STIHL AP holster with connecting cable for power tools with a socket or with the STIHL AP adapter for power tools with a battery slot. The total weight in your hand is reduced, which relieves you during work, as your back and arms are protected.
You can adjust the STIHL cordless belt with harness conveniently and easily, and it is always comfortable to wear.
