STIHL 4-MIX engine
The 4-MIX engine works with mixed lubrication.
Unlike a conventional four-stroke engine, the 4-MIX
engine does not have any supply of oil in the
crankcase. The engine is lubricated entirely with a
mixture of petrol and engine oil.
This design yields the following advantages:
.
Same fuel
.
Lower fuel consumption
.
Can be operated in all positions
.
Fewer emissions
.
Good acceleration
.
Compact size – attractive design
.
Advantageous power-to-weight ratio
.
Easy maintenance – easy to service
.
Pleasanter sound – lower noise level
.
Fewer vibrations
.
Lower starting force
