Features

 FEATURES:   

STIHL Quickstop®

STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called a STIHL Quickstop® chain brake

Anti-Vibration System

STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment.

Side-Access Chain Tensioner

The side-access chain tensioner makes it much more convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw.

Translucent Fuel Tank

Allows operator to easily check fuel level before starting work.

Master Control Leverâ„¢

The Master Control Leverâ„¢ 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 Leverâ„¢ to the choke position.

Easy-Access Air Filter Cover

Effortless to remove for a fast filter cleaning or replacement.

STIHL OILOMATIC® Saw Chain

Features specially engineered grooves designed to channel oil to critical wear areas.

Bumper Spikes

Help prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.

IntelliCarbâ„¢ 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.

STIHL Easy2Startâ„¢ (E)

The STIHL Easy2Startâ„¢ 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.
