As a responsible manufacturer, every now and then STIHL has to decide to issue a recall for certain products. Full details of any current recalls can be found here.
Multi-part metal cutting attachments constitute an unauthorized modification of the STIHL product. Therefore, they are not to be used under any circumstances on a STIHL brushcutter.
There are currently a number of websites and advertisements from fake providers in circulation, which claim to be selling the STIHL GTA 26 garden pruner at low prices between $24 and $49. These fraudsters give the impression of being directly linked to STIHL. For example, they use official STIHL image material or URLs with STIHL references. However, anyone taken in by these offers will not receive a STIHL product after payment.
