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 easier. 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.

Electronic Ignition –Electronic ignition provides easier starting and smoother running.

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

Protected Choke Lever/Knob –The choke is protected to help prevent damage.
