Stihl FS 561 C -EM

• Rugged Professional Design - Built to make tough work more comfortable, the FS 561 C-EM features a rugged professional design with a four-point anti-vibration system that allows for optimal control and reduced fatigue.
• STIHL Easy2Start™ - The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced starting system is designed to make starting STIHL products easier. The specific system may vary by model, but in each case, a quick pull overcomes the engine’s compression to minimize the strength and effort required to start. Available on selected products.
• STIHL M-Tronic™ System - The STIHL M-Tronic™ system intelligently manages the operating performance of the engine. Equipment performance can be affected by a dirty air filter, changes in elevation or poor fuel quality. The STIHL M-Tronic™ system compensates for these factors by eliminating the low and high-speed carburetor adjustment screws and electronically monitoring the engine and digitally controlling the fuel/air mixture. This new technology also provides a simplified warm start procedure.
• Electronic Ignition - Electronic ignition provides easier starting and smoother running.
• Bike Handle - When used in conjunction with a harness, the bike handle allows the machine to be easily guided, enabling a smooth horizontal mowing action to cover large areas quickly and efficiently. With soft grips for increased comfort, the bike handle provides greater control and helps reduce operator fatigue.
• 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.
• Tool-Free Handle Adjustment - The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated 90°.
• 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.
• Air Filter Cover - Easily remove the cover for fast and easy filter cleaning or replacement.

• 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.
