The best of all worlds is what you will find in the Stihl FS 311 trimmer. Its powerful, low exhaust emission and the fuel-efficient engine delivers longer work times with fewer refuels. Convenience is found in its adjustable handle bar that swivels for easy storage and transport. Optimal support is provided by the deluxe double harness that distributes the weight across the operator’s shoulders. Extended service life is delivered by its vertical pleated air filter and the four-point anti-vibration system ensures a comfortable working experience. An added feature of the FS 311 is its acceptance of metal cutting attachments and circular saw blades that can be used with the appropriate accessory kit.
Check out the features of the FS 311:
Reduced-Emission Engine Technology – Caring for Nature
The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards
Bike Handle
When used in conjunction with a harness, the bike handle allows the machine to be easily guided, enabling a smooth horizontal mowing action to cover large areas quickly and efficiently. With soft grips for increased comfort, the bike handle provides greater control and helps reduce operator fatigue.
Electronic Ignition Module
The electronic ignition provides reliable starting and because it is fully enclosed, it is protected from moisture and debris for longer service life.
Multi-Function Control Handle
Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog
Tool-Free Handle Adjustment
The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated 90°
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.
Anti-Vibration System
STIHL has a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
