Features may include:

• 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.

• Lightweight and compact, STIHL electric motors require minimal maintenance and feature low noise levels and reduced vibration.

• Great for maneuverability and extended use.

• STIHL offers an additional, manually-activated chain brake on select models. This system is designed to engage when the operator?s right hand completely releases the rear handle, stopping the chain within one second.

• 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.
