About the STIHL FSA 57 Cordless Grass Trimmer (Shell Only)

A Lightweight Solution for Garden Edge Perfection

The STIHL FSA 57 is a battery-powered grass trimmer designed for tidy edges and light lawn maintenance. It’s ideal for homeowners managing medium to large gardens. Quiet, lightweight, and easy to manoeuvre, this tool makes garden work smoother. With intuitive controls and clever features, the FSA 57 ensures trimming is simple and efficient.

Cordless Power That Keeps You Moving

This grass trimmer is part of STIHL’s AK System, which means interchangeable batteries across multiple tools. Use the same battery for your STIHL hedge trimmer, blower, or lawn mower. With no petrol fumes or cables, the FSA 57 gives freedom and quiet operation. You can work comfortably in noise-sensitive areas without disturbing others.

Designed for User Comfort and Control

An adjustable loop handle helps guide the trimmer precisely where you want it. The shaft also adjusts to suit your height. These customisable features improve balance, reduce fatigue, and make long trimming sessions more comfortable. Whether you’re tall or short, this trimmer adjusts easily with no tools needed.

Safe to Use and Easy to Handle

STIHL’s battery design includes a two-stage locking system for safe handling. In its first position, the battery is secure but disconnected. This prevents accidental starts during transport. Push the battery fully in to begin trimming safely. This system ensures simple operation with added peace of mind.

Quiet Operation with No Compromise on Performance

With STIHL’s quiet cordless technology, you’ll enjoy efficient trimming without disturbing your neighbours. Despite being quiet, the FSA 57 delivers excellent performance for lawn edges and tight corners.

Precise Trimming Around Obstacles

A foldable spacer bracket helps trim neatly around trees, fences, or flowerbeds. It protects both your plants and your trimmer. The bracket can be lowered when needed or folded away when not in use. This adds control and confidence when working close to garden features.

Easy Line Feeding and Versatile Cutting Options

The included AutoCut C 3-2 mowing head feeds line automatically with a tap on the ground. It’s easy to refill without tools, saving time. You can also swap it for the PolyCut 3-2 head, which uses blades instead of line. This gives you flexibility depending on your cutting needs.

What’s Included

The strimmer (shell) and an AutoCut C 3-2 nylon line head are included, but a battery and charger aren’t included but are required for operation. You may use any AK battery and compatible charger from your fleet, otherwise these will need to be purchased separately. The recommended battery is the AK 10 for optimum performance.

A Clever Choice for Everyday Gardeners

The STIHL FSA 57 is perfect for homeowners seeking a quiet, lightweight, and adaptable tool for lawn edge care. With adjustable comfort features, reliable cutting performance, and cordless convenience, it’s a smart upgrade for your garden toolkit.
