Features May Include:

STIHL 2-MIX-Engine

• The STIHL 2-mix engine specially designed for the new generation of hedge trimmer combines low consumption and emissions??with low weight and excellent acceleration. There are also always sufficient power reserves for cutting thicker shrubs.

STIHL ErgoStart (FT)

• A genuine advance in easy starting. STIHL ErgoStart (E) cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force. All it takes is 2 fingers and a gentle pull action.

Manual fuel pump (purger)

• A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting pulls required following extended breaks in operations.

STIHL ECOSPEED

• With the ECOSPEED function, you can use your long reach hedge trimmer in a more economical operating mode. Simply turn the wheel to the minus direction, thereby reducing the maximum engine speed. This keeps your long reach hedge trimmer running at partial load; however, despite this limited setting, you can shift to full capacity when necessary by pressing the throttle lever. Operating at partial load reduces fuel consumption and you can work much longer with one tank.

Blade system

• Double-sided cutting blades ensure a powerful and precise cut even through thicker branches.
