• Combi Lever With Stop Function: Only one start position is required on the combi lever. Thanks to the stop function, once the machine is turned off the control lever immediately moves back into the operating position. This allows a warm machine to be restarted immediately.


• Quick Chain Tensioning: After releasing the sprocket cover the chain can be adjusted using a thumb wheel without the need for tools.


• Side Chain Tensioner: The tensioning screw can be found on the side of the chain saw through the sprocket cover. This removes the need for contact with the sharp saw chain.


• Manual Fuel Pump (purger): A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting pulls required following extended breaks in operations.


• Tool Free Filler Cap: Patented special filler caps for fuel and oil. These filler caps can be opened and closed again quickly and easily, without tools.


• STIHL Ergostart (E): A genuine advance in easy starting. STIHL ErgoStart (E) cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force. All it takes is 2 fingers and a gentle pull action.


• STIHL 2-MIX-ENGINE: 1-in-4 channel technology. The economical STIHL-2-MIX engine with 1-in-4 channel technology features a high torque over a wide speed range. the chainsaw provides fuel savings of up to 20% compared to STIHL two-stroke engines in the same performance class without 2-MIX technology. Exhaust emissions are reduced by up to 50%.


• Anti-Vibration System: Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms STIHL's effective anti-vibration system dampens the oscillations from the machine's engine which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.


• Compensator: This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the air passing through the air filter. This keeps the fuel/air ratio in combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.


• Transparent Oil Tank: With the transparent oil tank, you can easily and quickly check the fill level of the chain oil. This means that you always know when you need to add chain oil for efficient work over long periods.


• Advanced Combustion Technology: Four overflow channels swirl the fuel-air mix before ignition, allowing for optimum combustion and highly efficient performance. The result is lower fuel consumption and high torque across a broad rpm range.
