Key Features
For More Pleasant WorkVibrations can occur when you put your power tools through their paces, and these are particularly noticeable in the grip area. The buffer and spring elements of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body. The result is that your power tool is more comfortable to hold and your work is much less tiring.
Reduced Maintenance
The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, which uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality, and fuel consumption remain virtually constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance. This means that you can work for a long time without maintenance.
For Simple and Secure Re-Tensioning
Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy, and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover.
Quick and easy-to-use
With the tool-free fuel cap, you can open and close oil and fuel tanks in just a few simple steps, thanks to a bayonet closure.
