Good to know

STIHL lists a 60 mm maximum branch diameter and a weight of 59 kg without fuel. STIHL’s UK site points buyers to its approved dealers, so an Amazon search may show other sellers or models.

Safety: Wear eye protection and gloves, never reach into the funnel — use the prodder the maker supplies — and unplug the machine before clearing a blockage. Petrol engines give off carbon monoxide — use outdoors only.
