Overview of the FSA 200
- Clearing saw with high cutting performance for professional use
- Suitable for noise-sensitive environments and maintenance of green areas on difficult terrain
- Sophisticated carrying system and ergonomic control handles for optimal weight distribution
- Professional anti-vibration system protects muscles while working
- Air filter ensures optimum engine cooling and long service life
The STIHL FSA 200 professional battery-powered brushcutter is part of the AP System of battery tools and is a great choice for more comfortable work. It is particularly suitable for mowing grass and shrubs in noise-sensitive environments and for care of green areas on difficult terrain.
Excellent cutting performance makes the FSA 200 ideal for professional use, for example in municipal and landscape maintenance operations. It has a large 45 cm mowing circle and is compatible with a wide range of STIHL cutting attachments, so it can be optimised for whatever you are cutting. The FSA 200 is IPX4 rated so you can work even in the rain.
The FSA 200 has a powerful drive unit with an electronically regulated brushless EC motor. High power output and an optimally tuned performance curve enable users to make noticeably faster progress in their work so you can get the job done quicker and with less fatigue.
The top combinations for your FSA 200
The FSA 200 carrying system optimally distributes the weight of the tool
The FSA 200 solution
The FSA 200 responds to this issue by means of a sophisticated carrying system with a hook-in belt strip, which absorbs and optimally distributes the weight of the clearing saw. Tiredness is reduced by means of ergonomically designed control handles with infinitely variable speed control and a fold-out handlebar adjustment screw. There are two separate controls to make it simpler to use; one for switching on the power tool and for one for selecting the power level.
Effective reduction of vibrations
Fatigue problems
Working with conventional clearing saws can rapidly cause fatigued limbs, which then leads to reduced working precision. This not only impacts the cutting result, but can also affect work safety.
The FSA 200 solution
The FSA 200 features an anti-vibration system for professionals, which consists of buffer and spring elements coordinated for optimal interaction. The anti-vibration system reduces vibrations by decoupling the gripping points of the power tool from the drivetrain. In this way, the STIHL anti-vibration systems effectively minimise vibrations and ensure low-fatigue, muscle-friendly use – good conditions for safe and healthy working.

Stay protected from head to toe
Quiet operation and no emissions
Problems with noise
When using a professional petrol clearing saw or brushcutter, noise and emissions can make your working day less comfortable. Many power tools operate at a sound level which is annoying for both the user and people in the surrounding area, and this can significantly restrict working hours – especially in noise-sensitive areas such as near schools, care homes and nurseries. It also means that the user needs to wear ear protection. Emissions from petrol tools can be unpleasant too.
The FSA 200 solution
When compared to similar petrol-driven tools, the FSA 200 offers numerous advantages for professional users. For instance, the FSA 200 can be used without generating exhaust gases and unpleasant odours, which is better for the user and represents a clear benefit for the environment.
An easy-to-clean air filter also ensures optimal motor cooling and a long power tool service life. What’s more, the FSA 200 has a comparatively low working noise level, which means that it is possible to work without ear protection, depending on the cutting tool.
How to dispose of used batteries
Once a battery is no longer required, it should not be disposed of with normal household waste. As a producer of industrial and portable batteries STIHL GB offers a service for their collection.
Additional benefits from smart connectivity
Risks of injury
Without regular maintenance and care, power tools may not remain safe and functional in the long term. This can expose the user, as well as others nearby, to the risk of work injuries.
The FSA 200 solution
Being networked to STIHL connected is one way the FSA 200 can contribute to increased working safety. To use STIHL connected, a Smart Connector 2 A should be mounted on the tool. Once installed it links to the device’s control unit and transmits valuable power tool data, such as information on maintenance and care. The STIHL connected data can be viewed via the STIHL connected App and theSTIHL connected Portal, where it can be used to help manage the maintenance of tool fleets efficiently.
