BG 56

Standard features

• STIHL 2-MIX Engine

  The 2-MIX engine features an advanced stratified charge system that boosts power, whilst reducing consumption and pollution, significantly lowering unburned hydrocarbons in the exhaust. The result is a cleaner, more fuel efficient engine.

• Manual fuel pump (Purger)

  A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start.

• Multi-function control handle

  This houses all the engine controls. Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator's hand never leaves the handle.

• HD2-Filter

  The HD2 air filter made of polyethylene has significantly finer pores than foam filters, this filters even the finest dust. In addition, the new HD2 filter can be cleaned easily. This means that the filter will last longer over the entire service life of the machine under normal conditions.

Additional features

• STIHL ElastoStart

  This standard or retrofitted starter grip allows smooth starting without abrupt power Peaks, making starting the machine considerably easier.

• Multispray

  Multi function spray that cleans a number of tools and leaves a protective film that does not harden on the surface and thereby protects against corrosion. Rotating parts are lubricated. An essential all-rounder for every workshop. 400ml spray can.
