A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required following extended breaks in operations. Stihl ErgoStart cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force.
A coil spring between the starter cord and the crankshaft smoothes out force peaks, making them virtually undetectable through the cord itself. Simply set the choke, pump the fuel primer, pull the starter cord and away you go! The running machine then switches off after a brief press of the stop button.
Once the machine is at a standstill, the ignition activates again automatically. Thus the ignition is always ready for starting. The loop handled grass trimmers and brushcutters are ideal for working in areas where space is limited, e. Thinning between bushes and shrubs. Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator's hand never leaves the handle. For use with loop handle machines. 7.6 / 6.0m/s² (left / right).
