    Thanks for the video. I almost bought a fs38 (cheaper version of fs40) but I learned that it's not very good for tall people. Probably would have hated having to bend over to trim. I'm going for the straight shaft ones now.

      They come stock with the autocut 25-2 head. But, I’m sure at purchase u can switch it out with the autocut 26-2 which is a quick wind head. This is STIHLs design and their version of a quick load. I hear some care for it some don’t. A lot of people both homeowner and landscaper like the speedfeed. Two main issues with them. One most of the time when mounting them on your gearbox u need to use the black spacer to make a tight connection. I don’t care for that gap in between the head my personal preference. Secondly they are not built that tough and hear about landscapers going through 2-4 bump caps a season. I don’t like that. I just have always stuck with the autocut 25-2 stock head. I’m just as fast at reloading that head as a speedfeed. They are not hard to load they hold about 20- 24 ft of line depending on if it’s .080 .095 or .105 line. They are strong heads and I only need to replace the pump spool usually only once a season. Depending on how hard you use the trimmer or should I say how hard u are pumping it on grass and hard ground. I find to if u stick with buying the Stihl brand replacement spool either prewound or empty. U save a bit if there empty. They seem to last longer than aftermarket brand like stens. Plus they are not made 100% to speck. Just ask the dealer what head u prefer to have with that unit. I’m sure they would either include it for free or even swap out and change the actual unit head for u to what u want.

      The FS461 in the clearing saw range and is really heavy (!) - if you want light weight look at the FS94 C-E

    I have just bought a Stihl FSA60 R and the automatic line feed is simply not as described, the line keeps breaking and snapping off inside the hub. so you constantly have to unscrew and re-feed and load the line back onto it. I just don't understand how a company can describe a product as having an automatic line feed when it clearly doesn't work. Waiting for feedback from Stihl and any advice.

      Maybe the line is to old or to thin for the Material you are mowing

      @@nicoflooow6098 Dont think so. I have just purchased some Stihl Pro line 2.4mm which should be more than capable of edging flawns even adjacent stone pavers. It just keeps snapping inside teh line head so you can't feed anymore and need to completely strip the head to feed the line again.

      thanks for the feedback- you will find in newer videos we no longer use music if this helps. Also noted re the model details - do have a look in the descriptions for full model details but will look at how we can integrate this in to the video also when doing a machine round up.
