KMA135R Cordless KombiMotor: Versatile, professional power for year-round tasks
The Stihl KMA135R is a professional-grade cordless KombiMotor designed to handle a wide range of tasks with one base tool. Quiet yet powerful, it runs on Stihl’s AP battery system, making it perfect for use in noise-sensitive areas like hospitals, schools, or residential gardens. Whether you need to trim, mow, prune, clear, or edge, the KMA 135 R combines strong performance with exceptional flexibility. This battery-powered KombiMotor is compatible with all Stihl KombiTools (except the FSB-KM), letting you switch from hedge trimming to leaf blowing in minutes. Tool changes are quick and secure: simply insert your chosen KombiTool into the shaft and tighten it in place – no complex adjustments needed. The KMA135R features a loop handle for comfortable control, even on slopes or around obstacles. The robust brushless EC motor delivers long-lasting performance and runs efficiently with reduced maintenance. Speed can be adjusted easily using the control handle’s three-level setting and infinitely variable trigger, shown clearly on an integrated LED display. A durable metal mesh air filter ensures optimal cooling and longer motor life. It’s easy to remove and clean, supporting reliable performance season after season. You can choose from any AP series battery; lighter batteries may reduce fatigue for long trimming sessions, while the AP 500 S offers the longest runtime. The KMA135R is supplied with a basic harness to help reduce strain when working with heavier KombiTool attachments. KombiTools, batteries, and chargers are sold separately.
