Features:

• STIHL Easy2Start™ (E) – The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL® outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced system is designed to simplify startup by requiring significantly less effort. A quick, smooth pull overcomes the engine’s compression, making the tool easier to start. Available on select models.
• Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) – The Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) allows for fast, tool-free adjustment of the saw chain tension. This feature enables convenient, on-the-fly adjustments without the need for additional tools.
• Bumper Spikes – Designed to help prevent pull-in and provide greater control during cutting, bumper spikes make for easier and more efficient operation.
• Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers – These user-friendly caps can be easily removed or tightened by simply lifting the lever and twisting—no tools required. The retainers help keep the caps securely attached and prevent loss.
• Anti-Vibration System – The STIHL® anti-vibration system significantly reduces vibration levels in handheld outdoor power equipment. By minimizing vibration, this feature helps reduce operator fatigue and ensures a more comfortable experience.
• Master Control Lever™ – The Master Control Lever™ integrates choke, throttle lock, and on/off switch into a single, easy-to-use lever. For added safety, the throttle trigger must be engaged before the lever can be moved to the choke position.
• Throttle Trigger Lockout – This safety feature must be engaged before the throttle trigger can be activated, reducing the chance of accidental acceleration.
• High-Tech Polymer Housings – Durable yet lightweight, these polymer housings offer excellent impact resistance and corrosion protection for long-lasting performance.
• Made in America – A majority of STIHL® products sold in the United States are proudly made in America using a blend of U.S. and global materials.
