stihl combi

[abs111999]

combi units in the 350$ range from stihl, are they professional grade at all?
and where can you buy stihl pro trimmers online ??

I see they claim it is for commercial use but have my doubts...

Just imagine hired help switching attachments and running it day after day.
I don't think so.

The 4 mix motors are solid. I use the whole system at work and it’s great

Just use the attachments on the end of the trimmer, works fine,

that is if you already have a trimmer.

Yes I agree about the motor - I have a 4 mix engine in a Stihl HL 100 hedge trimmer and I like the engine.
It starts and runs better than the two stroke Stihl trimmer, blower or pole saw I have used for many years, but only time will tell if it will last?

I have read elsewhere how it's important to use their brand synthetic mix oil to keep the valve(s?) working properly.

We will see about that.

I use the Kombi 131 head on our three acres. Blower pole saw string trimmer hedge trimmer. Getting into second season With no troubles. Starts and runs strong any time of the year. I use all platinum oils.

It’s more important to use there synthetic oil for the piston pin since there’s no needle bearing and carbon on the valves
