TRY BEFORE YOU BUY SCHEME LAUNCHED

STIHL has launched a new ‘Try Before You Buy’ initiative, giving customers the opportunity to test its AP System battery-powered tools before they invest via their network of approved dealers.

The manufacturer says the scheme enables dealers to purchase a selection of professional cordless machines and batteries, enabling them to create their own fleet of loan tools that professionals can trial before committing to a purchase. 
 
Available across a wide range of AP System tools, including chainsaws, hedge trimmers, blowers, brushcutters and lawn mowers, the initiative supports what the company describe as a "growing demand for battery-powered equipment among professional users." 
 
Dealers that are taking part in the programme will be highlighted on the STIHL dealer locator, which can be found on the manufacturer's website, from the end of April onwards. Professional users who are interested in trying AP System tools can select the Try Before You Buy filter on the website to find their nearest participating dealer.
