Description

With 3/8″ Picco Super full chisel tooth saw chain and M-Tronic as standard. The fuel supply is electronically controlled and automatically adapts to operating and ambient conditions, ensuring engine optimal performance. The memory function allows you to quickly pick up where you left off after a break in work and there is no need to adjust the settings by hand. Additional practical features include the long-life air filter system with easy-clean HD2 filter, professional STIHL anti-vibration system, controlled-delivery oil pump, captive nut on the sprocket cover and one piece engine cover with three quick-release fasteners. Excellent for harvesting thin wood.

Standard features

Captive bar nuts

Bar nuts held captive in the sprocket cover will not get lost when changing over the cutting attachment.

Long-term air cleaner system with HD2-Filter

The longlife air filter system has a service life up to five times longer than the previous model. The newly developed HD2 filter is made from a water- and oil-repellent polyethylene filter material. It has up to 70 per cent finer pores than fleece and it is easy to clean. The PET-coated round filter cartridge with quick-release lock enables the filter to be fitted and removed in next to no time.

STIHL M-Tronic (M)

This fully electronic engine management system adjusts ignition timing and fuel metering in all operating modes. It also takes external conditions such as temperature, altitude and fuel quality into account. It ensures consistent engine performance, a constant maximum speed and superb acceleration. M-Tronic makes manual carburettor adjustments unnecessary. Thanks to electronic cold/warm start recognition, now there is only one start position on the combi-lever. The engine starts after fewer pulls and with no change of position, and can immediately accelerate up to speed – even after a cold start. M-Tronic also remembers the settings from the last time the tool was used. So when external conditions are the same, optimal engine performance is available every time you start up again.

STIHL 2-MIX Engine

The new 2-MIX engine features an advanced stratified charge system that boosts power, whilst reducing consumption and pollution, significantly lowering unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust. The result is a cleaner, more fuel efficient engine.

Advanced combustion technology

Four overflow channels swirl the fuel-air mix before ignition, allowing for optimum combustion and highly efficient performance. The result: lower consumption and high torque across a broad rpm range.

Pre-separation air filtration system

The innovative long-life air filter system greatly extends the service life of the filter. Air routing removes larger particles of dirt, meaning the actual filter has less to do. So the saw can be used for longer without having to clean the filter.
