STIHL Quickstop® Plus -
STIHL offers an additional, manually-activated chain brake on select models. This system is designed to engage when the operator’s right hand completely releases the rear handle, stopping the chain within one second.
Ematic™ Lubrication System -
The Ematic™ guide bar, when used with STIHL OILOMATIC® saw chain, will provide proper lubrication and less oil consumption than conventional methods. The system works because two ramps, strategically placed in the guide bar rail, help contain the flow of oil and direct all lubrication to the sliding faces of the bar and chain links as well as the rivets and driver holes, which in turn can reduce bar oil consumption up to 50%.
Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) -
The Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) allows the user to adjust the tension of the chain without the use of tools. This allows for easy chain adjustment.
Brushless Motor -
The advanced brushless motor virtually eliminates maintenance while supplying the power and performance you expect from STIHL.
Lightweight High-Powered Chainsaw -
Featuring innovative battery technology, the lightweight chainsaw brings power and efficiency to maintenance tasks like storm cleanup and firewood cutting.
Variable-Speed Trigger -
The variable-speed trigger allows precise control for each task.
Rubberized Soft-Touch Handle -
Soft rubber texture is both easy to grip and makes the product comfortable to hold for extended periods.
Toolless and Translucent Bar and Chain Oil Tank -
The translucent bar and chain oil tank makes it easy for users to check oil levels at a glance.
Side-Access Chain Tensioner -
The side-access chain tensioner makes it much more convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw.
Throttle Trigger Interlock -
This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature -
