Purchased a Stihl FS130 Trimmer a few months back and have been having a problem when using the Stihl chisel tooth blade, where the powerhead twists on the shaft due to the torque. The twisting stops once the throttle cable is pulled tight around the shaft. Being new, I’ve returned it to the dealer 4 times now but am still having this problem. They even replaced the shaft and clamp. This is a great running machine and except for the twisting we are very happy with it.
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a fix for it? They’ve offered a refund but we are otherwise very happy with this trimmer and would prefer to have this problem fixed.
