Description

STIHL® FSA 135 R 36V Cordless Handheld Loop Handle Brushcutter

Gas-Equivalent Power Matching 28.3cc Commercial Units. High-Efficiency 3-Speed Brushless EC Motor. IPX4 Certified Splashwater Weatherproof Casing.

The STIHL FSA 135 R Professional Cordless Brushcutter introduces relentless gas-matching cutting power, agile handling mechanics, and completely emission-free quiet operations straight to your daily landscape schedules. Purpose-built to eliminate the constant air-filter cleanings of traditional internal combustion trimmers, exhausting pull-cord starts, and strict early-morning neighborhood noise boundaries, this commercial-grade battery-powered string trimmer stands as an elite property clearing staple. It equips landscaping crews, golf course maintenance details, and large rural estate owners with a heavy-duty 36-volt power platform explicitly optimized to scythe through deep overgrown fields, maintain neat estate fence lines, clear dense woody scrub, and detail tight boundaries between dense trees and shrubs.

Industrial power transmission and uncompromised structural resilience form the architecture of this top-tier STIHL FSA 135 R String Trimmer. Driven by an advanced brushless EC motor linked to intelligent Constant Power electronics, it mirrors the exact cutting performance of the legendary 28.3cc FS 91 R gas unit, spinning up to a blazing 5900 RPM without fading as the battery charge drops. To optimize efficiency and runtime, the ergonomic handle features a 3-stage speed pre-selection trigger switch with a vibrant LED display alongside an infinitely variable speed throttle for total control over fragile flowerbed borders. The rugged framework incorporates an easy-to-clean metal mesh air filter for supreme internal motor cooling, a broad 16.5-inch cutting swath, and an IPX4 waterproof rating that certifies the machine to push seamlessly through heavy, pouring rain.

Why the STIHL FSA 135 R Bare Tool Dictates the Professional Fleet:

  • True Gas-Matching Force: Delivers robust commercial torque that easily matches a 28.3cc gas engine, allowing crews to clear dense weed patches with zero exhaust fumes.
  • 3-Speed LED Selection Interface: An integrated thumb panel lets you lock in three separate power thresholds to balance runtime or unleash maximum line velocity.
  • IPX4 Certified Weather Resilience: Fully sealed against splash water from all angles, ensuring your crew can work safely and confidently through sudden downpours.
  • EasySpool™ AutoCut® Head: Ships standard with an advanced tap-advance head that lets you reload fresh 0.095" nylon line from the outside without disassembling the housing.
  • Rigid Metal Mesh Coolant Filter: Built with a resilient, easy-to-clean stainless steel air grille that prevents dirt ingress while optimizing airflow to protect key electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions

+ Does the FA012000012 model include the battery and charger?
No. This part number is distributed strictly as a "Bare Tool" (unit only). It does not include batteries or a charger inside the box. This allows commercial landscaping companies to expand their tool inventory economically if they already utilize compatible chargers and batteries within the professional STIHL AP-System platform.
+ How long will this trimmer run on a single battery charge?
When equipped with the recommended commercial STIHL AP 300 S battery, you can expect up to 45 minutes of continuous run time. Actual run times will vary depending on which of the three speed settings you select and how dense the overgrown grass or field brush is that you are clearing.
+ Can this loop handle brushcutter be equipped with steel cutting blades?
Yes, absolutely! The FSA 135 R features a commercial gearbox and heavy-duty shaft build that fully supports optional rigid steel grass-cutting blades (such as 4-tooth and 8-tooth versions) and specialized brush knives. This allows you to quickly convert the machine from a standard nylon line trimmer into an aggressive brush clearing saw.
+ What is the benefit of the metal mesh air filter on a battery tool?
Unlike gas engines that need filters for air intake combustion, the FSA 135 R utilizes a fine metal mesh filter specifically designed to optimize motor cooling. It screens out airborne grass clippings, dust, and debris from entering the internal motor housing, which keeps the high-powered brushless EC engine running cool and significantly extends its operating lifespan.
