Model Features

• IPX4 Rating – This tool is IPX4-rated for weather-resistant construction and has been designed and tested for splash-water protection.

• 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%.

• Brushless Motor – The advanced brushless motor virtually eliminates maintenance while supplying the power and performance you expect from STIHL.

• Magnesium Motor Housing – Magnesium motor housing adds durability to this powerful chainsaw.

• Captive Bar Nut—The captive bar nut is held securely, eliminating the risk of dropping or losing it during saw chain maintenance.

• Variable-Speed Trigger – The variable-speed trigger allows precise control for each task.

• Low Oil Sensor – The low oil sensor lets the operator see when the oil is low, allowing them to keep the bar and chain properly lubricated.

• 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.

• Anti-Vibration System—STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.

• 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.

• Master Control Lever™ – The Master Control Lever™ is an easy-to-use single lever that operates the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch. The operator must pull the throttle trigger before moving the Master Control Lever™ to the choke position.

• Throttle Trigger Interlock – This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.

• STIHL Quickstop® – STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain-stopping system to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called an STIHL Quickstop® chain brake. The STIHL Quickstop® chain brake is designed to stop the chain’s rotation if activated by the operator’s hand or by inertia if the saw kicks back with sufficient force. In some working positions, the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake can be activated by inertia, stopping the chain within fractions of a second.

• Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature—The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products as more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as cleaner than EPA and CARB exhaust emission standards.
