Mobile. Silent. Powerful. Typical Stihl.

STIHL FSA 120 R: Powerful Cordless Loop-Handle Brushcutter (AP System)

The STIHL FSA 120 R is a high-performance cordless brushcutter designed for professionals and demanding domestic users. Part of the STIHL AP System, it delivers exceptional torque for clearing thick grass and weeds without the noise, fumes, or maintenance of a petrol engine. The loop-handle design makes it incredibly maneuverable, providing the agility needed to trim around trees, flower beds, and other garden obstacles.

Intelligent Power & ECOSPEED Control

  • Dual-Stage Speed Adjustment: The control handle features a two-stage speed selector. Level 1 (ECO Mode) is perfect for lighter trimming and lawn edges, maximizing battery runtime, while Level 2 provides full power for tackling dense, overgrown vegetation.
  • High-Torque EC Motor: The brushless EC motor is remarkably efficient and quiet, making this tool ideal for use in noise-sensitive environments such as hospitals, schools, and urban housing estates.
  • Maintenance-Free Operation: With no fuel to mix and no spark plugs to change, the FSA 120 R offers a "plug-and-play" experience—simply slide in an AP battery and start working.

Ergonomics & Versatility

  • Adjustable Loop Handle: The comfortable loop handle features a soft-grip surface for a secure hold, even in damp conditions. A quick-release folding clamp allows you to adjust the handle position easily to suit your stature.
  • Standard GrassCut 230-2 Blade: Supplied with a twin-winged metal grass blade as standard, allowing you to mow through large areas of tough grass efficiently.
  • Multi-Head Compatibility: For added flexibility, the FSA 120 R can be fitted with a wide range of STIHL cutting heads, including AutoCut, TrimCut, DuroCut, and PolyCut (available as optional extras).

Professional Build Quality

  • Lightweight Design: Engineered for balance and reduced operator fatigue, this model includes a basic shoulder harness as standard for safer, more comfortable operation during longer shifts.
  • AP System Integration: Fully compatible with the STIHL AP battery range. For the best balance of power and runtime, the AP 300 S battery is recommended.
  • All-Weather Performance: Designed for reliability, the FSA 120 R is built to withstand professional use in varying weather conditions.

Please Note: This is a Power Unit (Tool Only). Battery and charger are sold separately. We recommend the AP 300 S battery for optimal performance.
