Features

Anti-vibration System

Vibrations from power tools can lead to negative effects on blood vessels. STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the levels. This also helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
STIHL 2-MIX-Engine

The STIHL 2-mix engine combines low fuel consumption and emissions with low weight and excellent acceleration. It also ensures there is always sufficient power reserves for cutting thicker shrubs.

Easy Open Fuel Tank

A special cap on the fuel tank makes it really easy to open for refueling.
Double-Sided Blade

STIHL double sided Hedge Trimmers blades provide a cleaner more efficient cut. This blade design is excellent for cutting stronger, thicker branches.

Long-life Air Filter System

Provides better protection for the engine and allows you to use the tool for longer before cleaning the filter.
Manual fuel pump (Purge)

A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start.

Blade Tip Protector

This premium tip protector helps protect the blades from damage when cutting near the ground or along walls. It can be replaced when it's worn down.
Cut Protection

The premium cut protection on this model overlaps the working blades, this reduces the risk of the blades coming into contact with your body. It can be replaced when it's worn down.
