Features

• STIHL EASY2START™ (E): The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced starting system is designed to make starting STIHL products easier. The specific system may vary by model, but in each case, a quick pull overcomes the engine’s compression to minimize the strength and effort required to start. Available on selected products.
• INTELLICARB™ COMPENSATING CARBURETOR: The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor is designed to automatically adjust the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted or partially clogged and maintains the engine’s correct RPM. IntelliCarb™ uses air from the clean side of the air filter to control the diaphragm and flow of fuel. As the air filter becomes dirty and less air is available for the carburetor, the IntelliCarb™ system adjusts the fuel flow to compensate for the decrease in air flow. This is in contrast to typical carburetors that utilize this air from the “dirty” side of the air box.
• QUICK CHAIN ADJUSTER (QCA) (B): The Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) allows the user to adjust the tension of the chain without the use of tools. This allows for easy chain adjustment.
• WINTER / SUMMER SHUTTER: The Winter/Summer Shutter allows the carburetor to operate at optimum temperature year-round and helps to prevent carburetor icing when working below 50°F (10°C).
• BUMPER SPIKES: These spikes prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.
• TOOLLESS FUEL AND OIL CAPS WITH RETAINERS: Simply lift the lever and twist the caps to remove or tighten. There’s no need to use a tool to tighten or loosen.
• ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM: STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
• MASTER CONTROL LEVER™: The Master Control Lever™ is an easy to use single lever, operating the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch. The operator must pull the throttle trigger before moving the Master Control Lever™ to the choke position.
• THROTTLE TRIGGER LOCKOUT: This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
• HIGH-TECH POLYMER HOUSINGS: Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
• MADE IN AMERICA: A majority of STIHL products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
