Save More on STIHL This Autumn: Get Cashback and Free AS 2 Batteries

Autumn is often an important time for garden machinery. Professional users may be preparing for seasonal cutting and maintenance work, while homeowners tackle hedges, branches and other jobs before winter arrives.

For 2026, STIHL is making selected purchases more rewarding with two autumn promotions. Customers can receive cashback on qualifying STIHL machines or additional AS 2 batteries with selected AS System kits.

The offers cover both professional and domestic equipment. This includes selected petrol chainsaws, AP System and ALLPRO machines, domestic tools and compact AS System equipment.

Save with STIHL Cashback

STIHL’s cashback promotion covers a selection of professional and domestic machinery purchased between 1st September and 18th December 2026. Customers buying an eligible machine can claim the relevant cashback directly from STIHL after completing their purchase.

Qualifying products include selected professional petrol chainsaws, AP System machines and ALLPRO battery equipment. Selected domestic chainsaws are also covered, together with the STIHL GTA 26, BG 56 and HS 45.

Cashback applies to all variants and guide bar lengths of qualifying machines. This gives customers greater freedom to select the specification that best suits their work without being restricted to one promotional configuration.

The amount available varies between products, with up to £75 cashback on selected STIHL Pro and ALLPRO chainsaws. Some machines may also attract a higher reward when purchased as part of a complete kit.

A Useful Time to Upgrade Professional Equipment

Professional garden machinery needs to earn its place in a working fleet. Contractors, arborists and grounds maintenance teams therefore need to consider reliability, performance and cost when replacing or expanding their equipment.

The inclusion of selected ALLPRO machinery also gives professional battery users more options. Cashback on qualifying models can reduce some of the initial investment when moving to newer equipment.

With demanding autumn and winter workloads approaching, replacing ageing machinery before it becomes unreliable can also help avoid unnecessary disruption later in the season.

How to Claim STIHL Cashback

The cashback itself is claimed directly from STIHL rather than being deducted automatically from the purchase price. Customers must first buy a qualifying product between 1st September and 18th December 2026.

Customers will need their purchase receipt and product serial number, together with the necessary bank details for payment. It is therefore worth keeping the receipt somewhere safe after ordering.

Once the claim has been approved, STIHL pays the relevant cashback directly into the customer’s nominated account. The value received depends on the qualifying machine purchased.

Importantly, every claim must be submitted within 30 days of purchase. Customers should check STIHL’s full promotional terms and conditions and complete their application soon after receiving their machine.

Extra AS 2 Batteries with Selected STIHL Sets

Alongside cashback, STIHL is offering additional AS 2 batteries with selected AS System sets. This promotion runs from 1st September until 16th December 2026.

Qualifying purchases must be complete sets containing the tool, battery and charger. Customers should therefore check the version they are ordering, as a tool-only machine may not meet the promotional requirements.

Tools requiring one battery to operate receive one additional AS 2 battery free of charge. Tools requiring two batteries receive two additional AS 2 batteries, providing the appropriate number of spares for the machine.

Why Having Spare Batteries Is Useful

Battery-powered garden machinery is designed to make everyday jobs straightforward. There is no fuel to prepare and machines can be ready to use whenever a charged battery is available.

Additional batteries extend that convenience. When one battery becomes depleted, another can be ready to take its place rather than bringing the job to an immediate stop.

This can be particularly useful when completing several tasks during the same gardening session. A spare battery can remain charged while the first is being used, helping reduce unnecessary waiting between jobs.

For many domestic users, a spare battery may simply provide reassurance that enough charge is available to finish the job. That can make cordless machinery even easier to incorporate into regular garden maintenance.

How the Free AS 2 Battery Offer Works

To qualify, customers need to purchase a selected STIHL AS System set between 1st September and 16th December 2026. The qualifying purchase must contain the tool together with its battery and charger.

The appropriate free battery or batteries are then added to the basket. Customers should check their basket before completing the order to make sure the promotional items have been included correctly.

It is also important to select the complete set rather than assuming every version of a qualifying machine is included. Tool-only options do not contain the battery and charger required by the promotion.

Not every product within the STIHL AS System is necessarily part of the offer. Checking the qualifying product page before ordering will confirm whether the chosen set is included.

Who Could Benefit from the STIHL Autumn Promotion?

Professional users planning to replace equipment are among those most likely to benefit from STIHL’s cashback offer. The promotion covers selected machinery used for demanding cutting and maintenance applications.

Existing AP System and ALLPRO customers may also find it useful when expanding their current equipment collection. Choosing machinery compatible with an established battery system can simplify charging and battery management across a working fleet.

For domestic customers, the AS System promotion offers a different type of value. Someone purchasing their first qualifying cordless set can start with additional battery capacity already available.

Current AS System users could also use the promotion to increase their battery collection while purchasing another tool. Having several compatible batteries can be particularly helpful when different machines are used during the same day.

Promotion Dates to Remember

Both STIHL autumn promotions begin on 1st September 2026, but customers should be aware that they finish on different dates.

The free AS 2 battery promotion is available on qualifying AS System sets purchased up to 16th December 2026. The purchase must include the eligible tool, battery and charger combination.

STIHL’s cashback offer remains available slightly longer, covering qualifying purchases made up to 18th December 2026.

Purchasing before that date does not remove the separate cashback claim deadline. Customers have 30 days from the date of their qualifying purchase to submit their claim to STIHL.
