Stihl FS 38 trimmer mystery!!!!!!!!!!

But just how does the batteries recharge and how many do needed during the cutting 3000' ft fence line 4'-10' on each side? I usually go through 1 to 2 gallons fuel mix per cutting along multiple refills of trimmer line.
Of course, one size does not fit all.
However, in your case I can imagine small stations with a battery charger and a solar panel on top. Attached to a fence post. Make the station a little bigger and put the whacker line in there, as well. You can walk the whole line without carrying anything with you. free electricity.
 
The update was a long while back, so it applies to the fs45/fs55. But the newer fs38s are essentially identical, so I was wondering if his new flywheel and coil might be made for the older version. To be honest, the original flywheel and coil likely work just fine.

Ahhh I did have the SB for the HL45 along the other models which how it as listed on my system but it didn't reference the FS38. I make a side note for my records. I haven't seen a FS38 but have the FS45 and FS55.

As said I havent but coil problem on Stihl and that was dog damage. Apparently he really hated the blower; I think was the unit but it been 10 yrs ago and so many machines since then.
 
Here is a screenshot from the brushcutter menu of the 2012 mediacat. Not sure when they came up with the fs38, but it is the same as the fs45, the only difference I see is the sticker, and a slightly smaller cutting width shield.

Yeah I checked the key and the spark arrestor and both of them are fine. Alimony I do have a new engine but I stock the parts it's just I hate for something like this to puzzle me. I'm bound and determined to get this trimmer running.
 
Just for the record, if you have it back apart a little, turn the engine to tdc, and see where the magnets are in relation to the coil.
