I’m really intrigued by the rotary cutting head. I don’t own one yet because I just can’t get over the price. Really wish Stihl would help us out with that one. Great video, thanks for sharing!
The mulching blade is awesome, but here in the US it is not sold by Stihl so I didn’t want to shoot a video of it in use on a brand new factory machine. I would have no hesitation in replacing a 131r with this unit as long as I have the run time I need.
@@Carlsmower hi again!! I believe stihl calls them a shredder blade !!! Would be nice to see a video of you using one!! Of course you have to attach the bigger guard !!! Down side !!! Lol
And how much are you ou saving over the course of a couple years? Fuel, oil, spark plugs etc etc.. plus you have to think about user comfort.. no emissions, very low vibration and noise.
I hope it better then the last battery 130r. it was rubbish / Bad designs on the trigger and the battery s dont work in the cold of the UK. Also STIHL are not very good at sending replace meant parts under warranty to stihl dealerships. Dont think i would by any more STIHL Battery TOOLS .SORRY FOR MY HONESTLY .

They are expensive. But what an amazing product.
RG-KM Rotary cutting head, is great and very versatile
We love the RG-KM. It runs so nice on the KMA
@@Carlsmower I'm looking forward to trying one, when released here in uk
Good video!! What's your thoughts between the electric and a 131r?? Also would it not be easier with a mulching blade on !! Your thoughts??

@@carlstaurt5773 We sell a blade very similar to the shredder blade and use it often I have a video coming out with one of those in action soon
Pro arborist right here.
I think this is defently the future for home owners 🤔
Seems an infinitely better set up than the seperate cable backpack system.
For most applications I would agree. There is a bit more weight, but losing the tether is a good thing.
Hi, good video, thanks.
Is there a weight difference between the two models? And what about the balance, are they balanced similarly?
Thanks
Balance was great! The weight with a AP300 is about 1.4lbs more when compared to KM111R with a full tank of fuel.
Really good review! Looks like a great option for many users.
We can't wait to get more in stock! It's seriously a game changer for both homeowners and contractors.
Stock is better now. We are getting in several a week.
Im getting this once it comes out in U.S
It's here!
@@Carlsmower Is it available now?
@@RagansOutdoorChannel it seems it may be a few months. Supply chain delays.
When in the stores?
HOPING FOR MAY 2021
