This low weight compact brushcutter, known as the STIHL FS55 RC-E Grass Trimmer, features a loop handle for difficult terrain and confined conditions.

STIHL Easy2start
EFFORTLESS STARTING. STIHL Easy2start saves you energy when starting your power tools like the FS55 RC-E Grass Trimmer. A smooth and even pull on the starter cord is all that’s needed. The required speed on the starter cord is significantly reduced, and the engine starts quickly and reliably even with a slow pull. An additional spring between the crankshaft and the starter cord roll makes this easier.
SINGLE-HANDED MULTI-FUNCTION HANDLE
All the engine controls are at your fingertips, allowing easy and safe operation of the STIHL FS55 R Trimmer.
MANUAL FUEL PUMP
A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start, which is a great feature of the STIHL FS55 RC-E Petrol Grass Trimmer.
LOOP HANDLE WITH BARRIER BAR
FOR SAFE WORK IN SMALL SPACES. The loop handle ensures good manoeuvrability of your power tool, even in confined spaces, making the FS55 RC-E Grass Trimmer ideal. The barrier bar protects you by ensuring your feet and legs cannot come too close to blades or mowing heads during work.
