• Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature - 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.
• Long-life Air Filtration System - The long-life air filtration system helps reduce the need for frequent filter cleanings.
• STIHL QuickStop® Auger Brake - This braking system is designed to stop the bit from digging when the auger hits a hard underground impediment. In addition, the STIHL QuickStop® drill brake acts to stop backwards rotation. A jammed drill bit can simply be unscrewed from the borehole.
• Hip Pad - The hip pad is positioned close to the body or leg of the operator during use for more comfortable operation.
• Vibration-Dampening System - This advanced vibration-dampening frame increases user comfort and helps reduce operator fatigue, especially when used over long periods of time.
