Frequently Asked Questions Frequently Asked Questions What is the main advantage of the RG rotary head over a standard strimmer line? The main advantage is its low-spin, powerful cutting action. It is specifically designed for clearing weeds from hard or aggregate surfaces like gravel and pavement where a nylon line would quickly wear out or flick stones and debris excessively. Its design also resists tangling with tough, woody weeds. Which STIHL brushcutters is the RG attachment compatible with? The RG attachment is compatible with a range of professional STIHL models, including the FS 91, FS 94, FS 111, FS 131, FSA 130, FSA 135, and FSA 200 series brushcutters (including R versions). Always check your specific model number for compatibility before purchase. Is this attachment suitable for clearing overgrown grass on a lawn? No, the RG rotary head is a specialist tool for weed removal from surfaces like gravel, paths, and kerb edges. It is not designed for mowing or trimming grass on a lawn and will not produce a clean, lawn-mower-like finish. For lawn edges and general grass trimming, a standard nylon line head is more appropriate. How do I maintain the STIHL RG attachment? Maintenance involves keeping the attachment clean and free of debris after each use, and regularly checking the blades for wear or damage. Blades are easy to change when needed. STIHL also offers a specific service kit for the RG-KM rotary cutting head to assist with routine maintenance. User Manuals / Downloads View STIHL Brochure
