Features
FEATURES:
Reduced-Emission Engine Technology - Caring for Nature
The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
Semi-Automatic Choke Lever
The semi-automatic choke lever enables the simplified three-step start procedure, saving users time and allowing them to start jobs faster
Protected Choke Lever/Knob
The choke is protected to help prevent damage.
Protected or Enclosed Control Cables
Dangling and loose wires are eliminated.
Heavy-Duty Steel-On-Steel Clutch
Centrifugal clutch is designed to reduce slippage.
Throttle Trigger Interlock
This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
Bike Handle
When used in conjunction with a harness, the bike handle allows the machine to be easily guided, enabling a smooth horizontal mowing action to cover large areas quickly and efficiently. With soft grips for increased comfort, the bike handle provides greater control and helps reduce operator fatigue.
Shoulder Strap / Carrying System
Using a shoulder strap or carrying system helps distribute the weight of the equipment for increased operator comfort and improved maneuverability.
Tool-Free Handle Adjustment
The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated 90°.
Fully-Lined Drive Shaft
A lined shaft provides smooth operation and less vibration.
Protected Spark Plug
The spark plug is protected yet easy to change.
Protected Spark Arrestor Muffler
Large baffles reduce noise level and contain a screen designed to reduce the emission of sparks.
Upright Translucent Fuel Tank
Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.
Purge Pump Primer
By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburetor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
Air Filter Cover
Easily remove the cover for fast and easy filter cleaning or replacement.
Vertical Pleated Paper Air Filter
Thanks to better air filtration due to its greater surface area, the vertical pleated paper air filter can extend the time between servicing.
High-Tech Polymer Housing
Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
Multi-Function Control Handle
Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.
Straps and Harnesses
They distribute the load from your hands to your shoulders. They also help reduce operator fatigue and make it easier to use trimmers, brushcutters and clearing saws for extended periods.
