Features
Air Filter Cover

Anti-Vibration System

Fully-Lined Drive Shaft
A lined shaft provides smooth operation and less vibration.
Heavy-Duty Steel-On-Steel Clutch

High-Tech Polymer Housing
Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.

Purge Pump Primer
By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburetor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature

Throttle Trigger Interlock
This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
