Description
Overview:
This is the genuine top cover for the Stihl AutoCut C 3-2 mowing head used on Stihl FSE 52 and FSA 57 strimmers. Made from a tough, impact‐resistant polymer in Stihl orange, it locks onto the head to secure the spool and spring, protect internal parts, and keep the bump‐feed mechanism working smoothly. As a direct replacement for OEM No. 4009 710 9600, it restores correct fit and function if your original cap is worn, cracked or lost. The circular, twist‐fit design makes fitting quick and straightforward, helping reduce downtime on garden and light grounds‐maintenance tasks. Suitable for domestic and trade use where a compact, lightweight strimmer head is preferred, it helps maintain clean line feed and consistent trimming performance.
