Features

• REDUCED-EMISSION ENGINE TECHNOLOGY - CARING FOR NATURE: The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
• 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.
• RUBBERIZED SOFT TOUCH HANDLE: Soft rubber texture is both easy to grip and makes the product comfortable to hold for extended periods.
• RAISED AND PRINTED FELLING STRIPE: The raised and printed felling stripe allows for precise aiming of felling direction.
• LIGHTWEIGHT PORTABILITY: Great for maneuverability and extended use.
• STIHL QUICKSTOP®: STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called a STIHL Quickstop® chain brake. The STIHL Quickstop® chain brake is designed to stop the rotation of the chain 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.
• 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.
• WEATHER-RESISTANT DESIGN: The weather-resistant design gives users the advantages of a powerful tool with a sturdy construction.
• VARIABLE-SPEED TRIGGER: Variable-speed trigger allows precise control for each task.
• COMES STANDARD WITH THE 3/8” STIHL PICCO™ SUPER SAW CHAIN: Ideal for professionals, the STIHL PICCO™ Super 3 is a low-profile, low kickback saw chain. Its razor-edged, square-cornered cutter shape ensures minimum chain friction for an exceptionally smooth and clean cut, even in hard or frozen wood.
