STIHL FSA 200 R is the most powerful 36 V brush-cutter in the AP battery line-up: its 1.6 kW brushless EC-motor spins the AutoCut C 26-2 head across a 450 mm swath, yet the power-head weighs only 4.8 kg, runs up to 40 minutes on an AP 500 S pack and operates at just 80 dB(A) with 3.8 / 3.0 m/s² vibration, making it a low-noise, heavy-duty solution for professional mowing and scrub control.

Sitting at the top of STIHL’s AP 36 V system, the FSA 200 R gives landscaping crews petrol-class torque without fuel, fumes or early-morning noise complaints. Its efficient 1.6 kW EC-motor offers three electronic speed levels—Eco for edging, Mid for grass and Full for dense bramble—selectable on an LED handle, plus an energy-save mode when the battery gets low. A new quick-mount loop handle adjusts to your height in seconds, while STIHL’s anti-vibration buffers keep HAV below 4 m/s² for all-day comfort.
With an AP 500 S battery the tool clears rough grass for up to 40 min per charge; lighter AP 300 S and AP 200 packs trade runtime for reduced weight, and backpack AR 2000 L power sources extend cutting to 150–200 min. Noise is a neighbour-friendly 80 dB(A) and the IPX4-rated housing shrugs off rain, so you can keep working around schools, hospitals and housing estates whatever the weather.
