Description
Overview:
The Deflector for Stihl FS240C and FS240RC is a genuine Stihl safety guard for petrol brushcutters and trimmers in the FS professional range. Built from impact‐resistant polymer in Stihl's high‐visibility orange, it is shaped to shield the operator from stones, mulch, and other debris thrown up by the cutting head. The guard mounts at the gearbox end of the shaft and helps maintain clear sight of the work area while containing mess. Its robust construction suits regular use on landscaping, grounds maintenance, and farm sites. Designed specifically for Stihl machines, it provides the correct coverage and compatibility for reliable performance. Genuine Part MPN: 4147 710 8116.
