Straps and Harnesses
They distribute the load from your hands to your shoulders. They also help reduce operator fatigue and make it easier to use trimmers, brushcutters and clearing saws for extended periods.
Bike Handle
When used in conjunction with a harness, the bike handle allows the machine to be easily guided, enabling a smooth horizontal mowing action to cover large areas quickly and efficiently. With soft grips for increased comfort, the bike handle provides greater control and helps reduce operator fatigue.

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.
Tool-Free Handle Adjustment
The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated 90°.
STIHL M-Tronic™ System
The STIHL M-Tronic™ system intelligently manages the operating performance of the engine. Equipment performance can be affected by a dirty air filter, changes in elevation or poor fuel quality. The STIHL M-Tronic™ system compensates for these factors by eliminating the low and high-speed carburettor adjustment screws and electronically monitoring the engine and digitally controlling the fuel/air mixture. This new technology also provides a simplified warm start procedure.
Upright Translucent Fuel Tank
Easily check the fuel level before starting work. If fuel is needed, the upright position makes the tank easier to fill.
Start/Run/Stop Controls on Handle

Multi-Function Control Handle
Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburettor
The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburettor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburettor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.
Purge Pump Primer
By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
STIHL Easy2Start™
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 starting system is designed to make starting STIHL products easier. The specific system may vary by model, but in each case, a quick pull overcomes the engine’s compression to minimize the strength and effort required to start. Available on selected products.
Electronic Ignition
Electronic ignition provides easier starting and smoother running.
Throttle Trigger Interlock
This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
Protected Choke Lever/Knob
The choke is protected to help prevent damage.

Protected or Enclosed Control Cables
Dangling and loose wires are eliminated.
Heavy-Duty Steel-On-Steel Clutch
Centrifugal clutch is designed to reduce slippage.
Protected Spark Plug
The spark plug is protected yet easy to change.
Protected Spark Arrestor Muffler
Large baffles reduce noise level and contain a screen designed to reduce the emission of sparks.
Fully-Lined Drive Shaft
A lined shaft provides smooth operation and less vibration.
High-Tech Polymer Housing
Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
Shoulder Strap / Carrying System
Using a shoulder strap or carrying system helps distribute the weight of the equipment for increased operator comfort and improved manoeuvrability.
Simplified Starting Procedure
To get started, users simply pump the fuel primer, set the choke, and pull the starter cord. The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the "start" setting. The tool will be ready to start again when the user is ready to get back to work.
