- The ElastoStart™ starter handle is an exclusive feature of STIHL. It is a starting grip with a built-in shock absorber that helps reduce the effort when pulling on the starter cord. The ElastoStart™ starter grip noticeably reduces the sudden peak forces (compression) normally felt during cranking. The forces which occur at the grip after the first compression stroke are smoothed out.
- The compact, ergonomic design provides more comfortable use.
- The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button or lever. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the “start” setting. Your power tool will be ready to be started when you’re ready to get back to work.
- A powerful low exhaust emission engine saves users fuel and operating costs without losing the power they count on to get the job done.
- The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
