Electronic ignition
The electronic ignition system provides a calm and steady start to the engine. In addition, thanks to better combustion, the number of harmful emissions decreases and reliability increases.
Double handles
The double handle allows the user to move naturally when trimming/clearing and is always an ideal choice when there are larger areas to be cut. By combining the device with ADVANCE universal harness or ADVANCE professional harness, you make your work tool really comfortable and effortless to use.
Carrying strap
Standard in most STIHL grass trimmers. For a more relaxed and safer work
Primer pump
Models equipped with a primer pump start more easily and with fewer strokes. By pumping the Primer pump, you ensure a sufficient amount of fuel for the carburetor to start the machine.
Goggles
For your own safety, the package also includes safety glasses. The glasses have good ventilation and wide side protection.
Single lever operation
All important functions such as start, throttle and stop are easily accessible with one lever. Working is easy and safe. Machines with a double handle, the lever is located on the right control handle. Machines with a loop handle, the lever is on top of the shaft.
