Description:

Equipped with a simplified starting procedure, the FS 251 R was built for pros with no time to waste. Designed with a powerful low exhaust emission engine, the FS 251 R saves on fuel and operating costs without losing any of the power. The FS 251 R combines its rugged design with versatile features such as the loop handle, ideal for trimming between bushes and shrubs and other hard to reach areas, to provide you with a heavy-duty tool that provides optimal maneuverability to handle a variety of situations. Equipped with a vertically-pleated paper air filter that provides an extended service life, you can get to work quicker and count on the gas trimmer to last longer.

Note: Available for purchase in California with the 4-tooth grass cutting blade only.

Features:

  • Powerful Low Exhaust Emission Engine - A powerful low exhaust emission engine saves users fuel and operating costs without losing the power they count on to get the job done.
  • STIHL® ElastoStart™ - The ElastoStart™ starter handle is a feature of STIHL®. It is a starting grip with a built-in shock absorber that helps reduce the effort when pulling on the starter cord. The ElastoStart™ starter grip noticeably reduces the sudden peak forces (compression) normally felt during cranking. The forces which occur at the grip after the first compression stroke are smoothed out.
  • TapAction™ AUTOCUT® Cutting Head - TapAction™ allows users to adjust the line length simply by tapping the cutting head against the ground.
  • 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.
  • Loop Handle - A thumb screw allows the ergonomic loop handle to be easily adjusted to the desired position without tools.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Semi-Automatic Choke Lever - The semi-automatic choke lever enables the simplified three-step start procedure, saving users time and allowing them to start jobs faster.
  • Simplified Starting Procedure - To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.
  • Vertical Pleated Paper Air Filter - Thanks to better air filtration due to its greater surface area, the vertical pleated paper air filter can extend the time between servicing.
  • Air Filter Cover - Easily remove the cover for fast and easy filter cleaning or replacement.
  • Protected or Enclosed Control Cables - Dangling and loose wires are eliminated.
  • Protected Spark Arrestor Muffler - Large baffles reduce noise level and contain a screen designed to reduce the emission of sparks.
  • Protected Spark Plug - The spark plug is protected yet easy to change.
  • Protected Choke Lever/Knob - The choke is protected to help prevent damage.
  • High-Tech Polymer Housing - Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
  • Heavy-Duty Steel-On-Steel Clutch - Centrifugal clutch is designed to reduce slippage.
  • 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.
  • Upright Translucent Fuel Tank - Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.
  • Fully-Lined Drive Shaft - A lined shaft provides smooth operation and less vibration.
  • Throttle Trigger Interlock - This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.

Love it takes up less space and easy to use
Color: Grey Red
The can opener works awesome easy to use and the magnet helps hold the lid after use. Easy to clean and easy to stack to the can. Batter life seems great and the product seems durable no issues. Highly recommend.

So far
Color: Black+Grey
I did have a electric can opener before and that brand didn't really work well at all. With this one I have only opened 3 cans with it so far and it worked perfectly. I am very happy with the product and it is really easy to work with. I didn't know if it was going to work on a bigger can and when I put it on it did the job just like it is supposed too.

Frustrating Opener
Color: Black+Grey
I love and hate these at the same time! I have had several and this one will not stop once it has started! Even though there is a button that says start/stop whenever you push it, it just starts it all over again and I can’t get the lid out. Very frustrating.

Effortless opening and no sharp edges.
We recently went camping and realized we really needed a reliable opener, and this one was a lifesaver. It’s incredibly easy to use, you just set it on the can, press the button, and it does all the work for you. I love that it leaves a smooth edge and feels sturdy, plus the black finish looks really nice. This has quickly become one of my favorite gadgets for making meal prep much faster, whether at home or on a trip.

So simple to use, I'm amazed
Color: Black
Wonderfully helpful. Description is accurate, shipping was quick. I saw a few poor comments, but I have none so far! The can opener has opened cans of several sizes, from tomato paste to large cans of tomatoes; soup cans to strangely shaped. It's opened 30 or so already without loss of power. It's a little noisy, but about equal to that of a stand up opener. It fits in my drawer, which is less deep than most kitchen drawers. Most of all, it's beyond easy to use for arthritic hands. The ONLY CHALLENGE I have is that it sometimes fails to stop when it should. MANUFACTURER: if you read this and have advice, please share. At this point, I'd say this is a great value for the money.
