STIHL MS181 C-BE Petrol Chainsaw (35cm Guide Bar)

Not only capable of felling smaller-diameter trees, the compact and easy-to-manage STIHL MS181 C-BE Petrol Chainsaw is also suitable for preparing firewood, cutting-back shrubs and lopping branches.

Power is supplied by an easy-starting 31.8cc (2hp) engine, which incorporates STIHL’s stratified-charge technology for a marked cut in both fuel-costs and unpleasant exhaust emissions; and their ErgoStart system for smooth, low-effort pull-starts.

A carburettor-compensator works to maintain a consistent fuel/air mixture for peak performance at all times; while an advanced pre-separation air-filter provides optimum component protection, thereby maximising engine-life.

Comfort and controllability are obviously important considerations when choosing a chainsaw. The STIHL MS181 C-BE scores highly on both aspects – it weighs just 4.6kg and has an ergonomic grip, which combines with its comprehensive vibration insulation and optimised centre-of-gravity to ensure it’s safe and easy to handle.

Other practical and convenient features include Ematic automatic chain-lubrication, which maximises performance and reduces wear by maintaining a constant oil-supply; and Chain Quick Tensioning for rapid no-tools adjustment while in the field. Tool-free filler caps also save time and effort. 

This version of the MS181 C-BE comes with a 30cm guide bar.
