FEATURES
Side-Mounted Chain Tensioning
The chain can be tensioned and replaced quickly and safely using the side-mounted tensioning system.
STIHL ErgoStart
STIHL ErgoStart technology significantly reduces the effort required to start the chainsaw, making everyday operation faster and more comfortable. A special spring system helps absorb resistance during the starting process, allowing the engine to start quickly even with a gentle pull.
Manual Fuel Pump
The integrated manual fuel pump primes the fuel system before starting, helping reduce the number of starter cord pulls required.
Service-Friendly Air Filter System
The air filter cover can be opened quickly without tools, making routine maintenance fast and straightforward.
Compensator System
The integrated compensator maintains fuel mixture quality as the air filter becomes dirty. Simply press the fuel pump several times before starting to ensure fuel is available in the carburettor.
Tool-Free Fuel Caps
Practical bayonet-style caps allow quick opening and closing of the fuel and chain oil tanks without additional tools.
High Performance with Lower Fuel Consumption
STIHL's four-channel cylinder technology optimises the flow of the fuel-air mixture into the engine for cleaner, more efficient combustion. The targeted fuel delivery increases engine performance while helping minimise fuel consumption.
Fold-Out Suspension Hook
Secure Handling in the Canopy. The integrated fold-out hook allows the chainsaw to be easily attached to a climbing rope for lifting into the tree canopy or lowering safely back to the ground.
STIHL 2-MIX Engine
The upgraded STIHL 2-MIX engine delivers impressive cutting performance while reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
STIHL Anti-Vibration System
The STIHL Anti-Vibration System reduces the transfer of engine vibrations to the handles, improving comfort during extended use.
