Description:

  •  Anti Vibration System: STIHL has a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
  •  ElastoStart shock-absorbing starter.
  •  Throttle Trigger Lock with Built In Momentary Stop Switch: The built in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button or lever. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the start setting. Your power tool will be ready to be started when you're ready to get back to work.
  •  Purge Pump Primer: The purge pump primer feature enables the user to prime the carburetor with fuel, enabling easier starting. The purge pump primer is designed in a way that the operator cannot flood the machine by priming the carburetor too many times. Flooding the engine is still possible if the choke is not removed after the engine fires.
  •  HD2 Air Filter: The new HD2 air filter on this unit is washable, providing extremely long filter life and lowering maintenance costs. The large surface area allows for longer run times between cleanings and high performance even while operating in dusty and dry conditions. Overall, the HD2 air filter provides better protection of the engine compared to standard air filters.
