Together with the electric chainsaw model E 14 C, it is awarded the 'Blue Angel' ecology mark. Quick chain tensioning for chainsawsWhen working with a chainsaw, the chain becomes longer and must be retensioned from time to time. With the chain quick tensioning function, this can be done without any tools whatsoever, via a single adjusting knob. This extra convenience is first offered with the Compact™ chainsaw 023 C and later also with the professional chainsaw 026 C. QuickStop® Super chain brake for chainsawsFirst presented with the 036 C, the QuickStop® Super chain brake not only brings the chain to a halt in the presence of a sufficiently strong kickback by the machine and when manually tripped via the front hand guard, but also when the rear handle is released. The chain stops within a fraction of a second. Cut-off machine TS 400The TS 400 cuts through steel as easily as through native granite and is therefore a standard machine in the building trade, road construction, fire services and for technical maintenance personnel (THW). Earth auger BT 106 CThe BT 106 C is the first earth auger in the world to be equipped with the QuickStop® drill brake for additional safety at work. If the drill jams in the earth, the drill brake is tripped before the operator loses control of the machine as it starts spinning due to being jammed. |
