  HD2-Filter

  Der HD2-Luftfilter aus Polyethylen hat deutlich feinere Poren als Schaumstofffilter. Dadurch wird selbst feinster Staub gefiltert. Zudem kann der neue HD2-Filter leicht gereinigt werden. Dadurch hält der Filter bei normaler Beanspruchung über die komplette Lebensdauer des Geräts

  STIHL 2-MIX engine with stratified charge system

  2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions.

  

  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 has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

• 

  Throttle lock with built-in stop switch

  The running machine switches off immediately after a brief press of a button. Once the machine is at a standstill, the ignition activates again automatically, meaning it is always ready to start.

• 

  One handle control with soft grip area

  For a secure and comfortable grip.

• 

  STIHL ElastoStart

  STIHL ElastoStart reduces the shock caused by the compression of the engine during starting. The compression shock is taken away from the user's joints and muscles through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.

• 

  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.

Additional features
