Stihl FS 80 trimmer is a product of the Stihl company famous for its chainsaw. Stihl 80 promises to do tough jobs of gardening and trimming. Not surprisingly, it delivers.

Stihl 80 is lightweight and that adds up to its advantages. It is in fact the smallest unit of Stihl's professional series of trimmers.

The lightweight trimmer makes the whole job faster and easier. It is easy to operate and it can be controlled to any contour or angle of the landscape. The lightweight feature of Stihl FS 80 also minimizes back stress and arm tension so after a day's work, your body will still feel relaxed.

The trimmer was easy to start despite not having the Easy Start feature available in Stihl's occasional use series. Engine displacement is at 25.44 cc but the

baffling fact is that despite a small engine it does a heavy job consistently.

It can even trim hundreds of 3 feet grasses in minutes. This saves time and effort in the part of the landscaper or gardener.

One notable downside of the equipment is the retraction of the head if ever it comes close to a rock or other heavy objects. It was tested in a real estate property and it continued its job for hours without problems with its engine.

For versatility, you can purchase additional Fix cut head with thermoplastic blades. This is ideal for lawn jobs near walls and fences. The heads delivers and the job is finished in a whim. There are a handful of head blades available to compliment the trimmer's use. They are sold separately so consult your nearest dealer about it.

Stihl FS 80 is recommended for your daily gardening job at home, ranch or farm. This grass and weed trimmer is above standards and is worthy to be in the professional series.
