STIHL 4-MIX engine:
You can always rely on STIHL to keep setting new benchmarks this time with 4-stroke mixed lubrication technology. The STIHL 4-MIX engine, which runs on a fuel-oil mix just like a 2-stroke, offers the benefits without the compromises of 4-stroke power. STIHL 4-MIX engine technology provides fast acceleration, more power, added torque, lower noise, reduced emissions and increased fuel efficiency to complete jobs quickly, quietly and more easily.
Anti-vibration system:
Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
Multi-function control handle:
This houses all the engine controls. Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator’s hand never leaves the handle.
Ergonomic harness:
The ergonomic carrying system offers pleasant carrying comfort with height adjustment and corner adjustment. The hip belt also helps working, especially with longer periods of application. ;
Decompression system:
The decompression valve allows some of the compression pressure in the cylinder to escape, so less force on the starter rope is needed.
Tool free filler cap:
Patented special filler caps for fuel and oil. These filler caps can be opened and closed again, quickly and easily without tools. Stihl BR 500
