Description Stihl Motoco FS-350
The Custorus FS-350 has been in heavy use for a long time, so the design successfully uses systems and devices that greatly improve its ergonomics.
- The Elastostart system smoothly starts the system, which softens jerks and reduces strain on muscles and joints.
- A decompression valve is used as part of the easy start system.
- The Stihl compensator regulates the oversaturation of the fuel mixture when the air filter gets dirty and the engine performance remains unchanged. The filter is cleaned when more than 80% of its surface is contaminated.
- Thanks to the four-point anti-vibration system in the form of steel springs, the rubber shock absorbers prevent harmful vibrations from the engine and rotating mechanisms from spreading to the arms and shoulder belt of the operator.
- Ergonomic two-handed handle facilitates mowing, which is as close to nature as possible.
- All controls are on a multifunctional handle, making it easy and comfortable to operate the tandem mower.
- The thin, padded shoulder strap makes it easy to handle the hedge trimmer.
- The operator can use a manual fuel pump to reduce the starter truck when the brushcutter can start smoothly after a long period of idle time.

Owners reviews
Peter:
“Saw the Stihl 350 lawnmower at work, tried to work. I liked it and I bought it. It is very easy and comfortable to work, I don’t get tired during the whole day. I make hay for the winter for the rabbits and four cows without any problems. I also make good money mowing with the neighbors. Clearing bushes, wild growth is also very good. “
Anton:
“Read the reviews of the Stihl FS 350 lawn mower and decided to write my opinion. Reliable machine, easy to use and easy to expect. The comfort when working is well thought out. Noise is not absolutely necessary for me – I work with headphones, the main thing is that I raise my head from time to time. Mower is very demanding to the fuel, the fuel consumption is of course a bit high. But overall I like it, so I recommend it, for a private household it is the best option, both in terms of performance and skills. “

Professional anti-vibration system allows you to work long and without interruption, which is very important when mowing large areas. Convenient double belt.
