Hello, We just got started clearing off 1 1/2 acres. The hired mulchers have done their machine work. Now it’s my time to go trim the nubs they left of all the wild privet shrub, then clean up growth and VINES around all the remaining tree trunks! It’s going to be a long summer!
I need to get some type of blade on that weedeater! Stihl doesn’t recommend any shrubbery blades or such for this FS 70 R. I see a lot of videos about circular saw blades. I finally saw one video where the four point brush blade that Stihl has was given good reviews, clearing out property of shrubs and vines. I feel like I really need that barrier bar or extra handle to stabilize the unit with any blade. Do I need a different size deflector also? I’ve had a lot of debris hit me while using this unit. I’m very glad that I bought the Stihl mesh face guard unit!
I appreciate any thoughts and suggestions!
