  • STIHL manufactures its own saw chain for optimal performance and compatibility with your STIHL chain saw.

  • The Automatic Bar and Chain Oiler allows the operator to concentrate on cutting rather than bar and chain lubrication.
  • The Electronic Ignition provides dependable and easier starting along with smoother running and performance.
  • STIHL chain saws feature an Anti-vibration System to help reduce operator fatigue and improve comfort.
  • The STIHL Quickstop® Chain Brake System is designed to stop the chain in fractions of a second and can be activated manually or by inertia if the kickback force is sufficient.
  • The Translucent Fuel Tank allows the operator to easily check the fuel level before starting work while the Balanced Fuel and Oil Tank are designed to make sure you run out of fuel before you run out of bar oil, thus extending the life of the saw chain.
  • The Front Handle is designed for a secure grip and is ergonomically angled for comfort.
  • Front and Rear Hand Guards are designed to reduce the risk of injury.
  • Bumper Spikes help prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.

  • Homeowners will also enjoy lightweight High-tech Polymer Housings for greater impact resistance, as well as Easy-to-Access Air Filters and Protected Spark Plugs.
