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.

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.

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, durable, and corrosion resistant.
