Overview

The STIHL FT 250 Petrol Tea Pruner (Circular saw blade 250-64 carbide, HP 100 ml oil, Gear Super Lube 225 g) is a highly specialized, heavy-duty agricultural clearing tool engineered specifically for pruning, skiffing, and topping tea bushes and dense shrubs on commercial tea plantations. Built on STIHL’s proven high-torque powerhead architecture, the FT 250 provides agricultural workers with a precise, low-fatigue solution for maintaining uniform table heights across vast tea estates.

Powered by a robust 40.2 cc 2-stroke engine producing 1.6 kW (2.2 hp), the FT 250 comes equipped with a 250 mm 64-tooth carbide-tipped circular saw blade (250-64) that slices cleanly through tough, woody tea stalks without splitting stems or tearing vegetation. This comprehensive plantation package includes a 100 ml bottle of STIHL HP 2-stroke engine oil and a 225 g tube of STIHL Super Lube high-performance gear lubricant. Designed with an ergonomic loop/handle setup, STIHL anti-vibration system, solid drive shaft, and heavy-duty gearhead, it delivers continuous high-speed performance in rugged terrain.
