A great choice for agricultural and heavier-duty domestic use, the Stihl MS-211 Petrol Chainsaw offers outstanding German engineering at a very reasonable price.

It’s equipped with a high-performance 35.2cc (2.3hp) two-stroke air-cooled engine that utilises Stihl’s advanced combustion-technology for maximum torque delivery at all engine-speeds; and which employs a pre-separation air-filter that protects the engine from damaging dust-particles, thereby significantly extending its service-life.

Stihl’s stratified-charge system delivers a huge 20% reduction in fuel-consumption; while their provision of a carburettor compensator means the correct fuel-air will be consistently maintained, even as the air-filter becomes dirty.

Thanks to its lightweight build (only 4.3kg), perfect balance, ergonomic grip and vibration-insulation, the Stihl MS-211 is comfortable and easy to control and won’t put too much strain on your hands and arms.

Other premium features include Ematic automatic chain-oiling for reduced wear and optimised performance; side chain-tensioning, which makes it easy to make adjustments when required; and a single master-control lever for ease-of-use.
