STIHL FSE 52 is a lightweight 500 W corded grass-trimmer that swings a 300 mm AutoCut C 3-2 head, weighs just 2.8 kg, runs quietly at 81 dB(A) and lets you edge or trim small lawns with an adjustable shaft, tool-free loop handle and 10 m integrated cable strain-relief.

Please enquire for pricing
Ideal for city gardens and noise-sensitive neighbourhoods, the FSE 52 uses a high-efficiency 500 W universal motor that delivers steady torque to its AutoCut C 3-2 mowing head while keeping sound pressure to just 81 dB(A) and vibration to 3.0 / 4.5 m/s². A telescopic shaft and tool-free loop handle let you tailor working length and balance, and the pivoting head flips for precise vertical edging along paths or beds. The metal spacer bracket protects bark and brick when trimming close, and integrated cable strain-relief keeps the 10 m lead secure in long borders.

For homeowners who don’t need cordless range, this trimmer offers petrol-like cutting width with lower noise, vibration and maintenance: no fuel mix, no battery charging—just plug in and trim. Its adjustable ergonomics and light weight make it comfortable for users of any height, and STIHL’s EasySpool head reloads fresh line in under a minute.
Sound pressure at the operator’s ear is only 81 dB(A), roughly half as loud as a small petrol trimmer.
It accepts 1.6 mm or 2.0 mm nylon line; simply tap the head while running to advance fresh line.
Yes—the mowing head pivots for vertical edging, and the metal spacer bracket helps keep the line clear of fences or bark.
The trimmer includes a 10 m lead; use an outdoor-rated extension cord for larger gardens and loop it through the strain-relief clip to prevent unplugging.
No petrol engine means no spark plugs or air filters—just keep the vents clear, replace line when needed and inspect the power cord for damage.
