You should mention the fact that there isn’t many blades available through stihl that suit machines FS131 and under with the 25.4mm arbour or 1 inch in your guys speak. Where as the machines above a FS131 run the 20mm arbour or 7/8 as you say and there is a lot more options available through stihl unless you guys in the us have access to more options then us in Australia. I work for a stihl dealer in NSW Australia.

Our 20 mm options are far less in the US. We have more in the 25.4 size. But I should have mentioned it may vary in your region

Hey mate, check out Oregon 3 blade mulching blades on Amazon. They are truly amazing. I've been clearing huge areas of 5m blackberries with one. Had to get it from England. Don't know why we can't get them here. Total gamechanger. Cheers PP

The 'FORESTER' blade will cover all of those and take out larger trees.

Ok, thanks but importantly also one needs to wear protective pants as sharp pieces will hit your legs with these machines. I prefer an old lawn mower with big back wheels to clean many spots.

what is the brand of the 14 inch flat blade or do you also carry it for order/shipments outside your area (I'm in MO and just bought a FS240). I think it might be interested in it

Great video! I live in the PNW and have a massive black berry cutting project ahead of me. I have a Stihl KM 91R. Would my best bet be the pick up the brush cutter blade attachment and switch to the the shredder blade? Thanks!

I fear Josh is misleading the uneducated outdoor power equipment masses once again. Had you worked the 3 prong brush blade like the shredder it would have produced similar or even better results. With one on my FS 560 it tears scotch broom and briers apart like butter plus you can get close to the ground which the shredder will not.
@Carlsmower2 жыл бұрын
Interesting. I have tried that and have not had that experience. The 3 prong blade costs more money and did not perfect as well in my applications.
