The Limit Stop 225 is a genuine Stihl OEM spare for professional brushcutters, designed to control the working range of the cutting attachment and improve safe operation. Built from durable metal for long service life, it limits overextension of the head/blade relative to the guard and ground, helping the machine run smoothly and reducing unnecessary strain on connected parts. Sized for 225 mm (8.86 in) cutting setups, it provides a precise, secure interface within the guard assembly. It is engineered specifically for Stihl machines, including the FS460C and FS460RC, for a reliable fit with factory geometry. By helping maintain correct clearances, this limit stop supports consistent performance, reduces wear, and keeps the machine predictable in demanding brushcutting and clearing work.
