We want you to be satisfied with your SOLO product.
You have decided to buy one of the most up-to-date chain

The SOLO chain saw 694 is a high-efficiency, modern chain
saw for professional application, which can be used for

You have purchased a high-efficiency device of a new
generation, which has the following outstanding
characteristics:
- Excellent power to weight ratio, i. e. high engine power
combined with low weight.
- A high torque at a low rate of revolutions as a result of
a favorable stroke-bore ratio, a computer calculated
cylinder design and an asymmetric combustion chamber.
- Consequently you can use a very wide speed range in
which the engine has a high output. In addition, the
chain saw has a low fuel consumption and as a result
only a low emission of polluting substances.
- The intelligent, programme controlled ignition system
works maintenance-free and allows easy starting, smooth
idling and good running at all speeds.
- The modern light-weight driving mechanism guarantees
fast speeding up, as well as a low rate of vibrations
which is advantageous not only to the device but also to
the operator.
