 OVERVIEW: 

As a professional, your time is valuable. The Stihl FS 70 R grass trimmer understands that. It features a powerful and fuel-efficient engine, which means longer run times and fewer refuels.

Just tap the cutting head on the ground and watch as its AutoCut® head automatically feeds out new line. This trimmer is also built to last, featuring a sturdy cable drive shaft, a high-durability, forged connecting rod, and a four-bearing gearbox.

The spark plug is protected yet easy to change.

Upright Translucent Fuel Tank

Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.

Purge Pump Primer

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.

Air Filter Cover

Easily remove the cover for fast and easy filter cleaning or replacement.

High-Tech Polymer Housing

Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.

Multi-Function Control Handle

Simplified Starting Procedure

To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.
