Standard equipment:

COMPACT 2.0 KW PETROL CHAINSAW

STIHL 2-MIX REDUCED-EMISSION ENGINE TECHNOLOGY

CLICK HERE TO ENLARGE

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.

LONG TERM FILTRATION SYSTEM WITH PRE-SEPARATION

CLICK HERE TO ENLARGE

STIHL long-life air filtration systems with pre-separation achieve perceptibly
longer filter life compared with conventional filter systems. Air drawn in is
swirled. The larger, heavier particles are ejected. The pre-cleaned air is
routed to the air filter via the pre-separator duct.

ANTI VIBRATION SYSTEM

In the longer term, strong vibrations at the handle points
of motor equipment can lead to poor circulation in hands and
arms. STIHL has therefore developed a high quality anti vibration system.Motor
devices with AV system, the vibrations generated by the engine and the
working environment, be substantially reduced at the handle points.

Compensator:

The STIHL compensator, a control system in the carburettor, ensures
that despite increasing pollution of the air filter engine performance, exhaust
quality and fuel consumption over a long period remain almost constant.
Only when a noticeable performance degradation occurs,
the air filter must be cleaned. So, very long working
intervals without maintenance are possible. (Similar to picture)

Lateral chain tensioning

The tensioning screw can be found on the side of chain saw through the
sprocket cover. This removes the need for contact with the sharp saw chain.

HD2 FILTER

CLICK HERE TO ENLARGE

The newly developed HD2 filter is made from polyethylene filter material with up to 70% finer pores than fleece and polyamide filters to trap even very fine dust. In addition, it is oil and water-repellent and thus very easy to clean. The PET-covered round filter cartridge with quick-release lock enables the filter to be assembled and disassembled in next to no time, without using tools

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.
