• 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 fast and easy. 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.
• 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.
• High-Tech Polymer Housings - Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
• 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.
• Simplified Starting Procedure - Saves the user time and reduces the chance of flooding the engine when starting.
• Made in America - A majority of STIHL products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.
