What are the features of the Stihl Petrol Earth Auger (BT 131)?

• Hip padding
  During use the hip pad is positioned comfortably close to the body or leg of the operator, making the auger safe and easy to use.
• 4-MIX® engine
  The 1.4 kW STIHL 4-MIX® engine combines the advantages of a two-stroke and a four-stroke engine - it is economical, smooth, responsive and powerful. It produces less emissions and doesn't need an oil service.
• Long-life air filter system
  Together with the compensator that is integrated into the carburettor, the long-life air filter system offers long cleaning intervals and reliable engine protection.
• QuickStop drill brake
  The Quickstop drill brake release lever stops the drill immediately when it gets stuck in the ground, It also serves as a reverse rotation lock - a stuck bit can then be easily unscrewed manually.
• Vibration dampening frame
  The vibration-dampening frame with four vibration elements provides comfortable working and reduces fatigue when drilling. The engine is positioned separately from the handle frame, allowing easier working over longer periods.
• Multi-function handle
  All operating elements for the engine control are integrated into the right-hand handle, enabling the drill to be operated by finger pressure. The hand always remains in a working position.
