Features:

• STIHL Easy2Start (E)– TheSTIHL Easy2Startsystem makes startingSTIHLoutdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced starting system is designed to make startingSTIHLproducts 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.
• STIHL Quickstop–STIHLchainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called aSTIHL Quickstopchain brake. TheSTIHL Quickstopchain brake is designed to stop the rotation of the chain if activated by the operator’s hand or by inertia if the saw kicks back with sufficient force. In some working positions, theSTIHL Quickstopchain brake can be activated by inertia, stopping the chain within fractions of a second.
• Diagnostic Socket– The convenient diagnostic socket makes it easy for a localSTIHLDealer to plug in the chainsaw and access information about operating time, diagnostic support, and more.
• STIHL IntelliCarb Compensating Carburetor– TheSTIHL IntelliCarbCompensating 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.STIHL IntelliCarbuses 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, theSTIHL IntelliCarbsystem 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.
• Bumper Spikes– These spikes prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.
• STIHL OILOMATIC Saw Chain– The chain features specially engineered grooves designed to channel oil to critical wear areas.
• Reduced Exhaust Emissions– This product features reduced exhaust emissions allowing users to make less of an impact on their surroundings.
• Front Hand Guard– The hand guard is designed to reduce the risk of injury.
• Rear Hand Guard– The hand guard is designed to reduce the risk of injury and provide a wide area for foot placement during starting.
• Translucent Fuel Tank– The semi-transparency allows operators to easily check the fuel level before starting work.
• Easy-Access Air Filter Cover– The provided easy-access makes it almost effortless to remove the cover for fast filter cleaning or replacement.
• STIHL Anti-Vibration System–STIHLhas developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. TheSTIHL Anti-Vibration Systemhelps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
• STIHL Master Control Lever– TheSTIHL Master Control Leveris 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 theSTIHL Master Control Leverto the choke position.
• 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.
• 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 ofSTIHLproducts sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
