battery chainsaw We'll start with an easy one. Every STIHL chainsaw model name starts with MS, MSA, or MSE. The common part, MS, stands for Motorsäge which is German for chainsaw. MSA indicates that it's a battery chainsaw and MSE tells us that it's an electric model.

The MSA 140 C-B also features the exclusive ¼” STIHL PICCO™ saw chain which assures clean, smooth cuts, and has a high-torque brushless motor delivering ideal speed and durability for a virtually maintenance-free service life.

This chainsaw for instance we have two key features still a go starts and quick chain tensioning logo. Starts one of our comfort.

The STIHL MSA 140 C-B boasts a 12-inch guide bar and chain, powered by a 36V Lithium-Ion battery. This chainsaw has an impressive chain speed of 12.4 m/s, allowing it to cut through branches and small trees with ease.

Power, measured by cubic centimeters (cc), differentiates chainsaw engines. A larger engine with 65 cc generates more power, which is useful when sawing through tough trees. Smaller engines with just 31 cc, meanwhile, are all you need to trim your hedges or slice thin, wooden boards.

OILOMATIC® STIHL RAPID™ Micro™ 3 is the reduced kickback tendency version of STIHL RAPID™ Micro™. STIHL RAPID™ Super is a reduced vibration saw chain. A cutter and tie strap design reduces vibration levels significantly while still utilizing the aggressive full chisel cutter design.

Why Choose Husqvarna Over Stihl: Faster cutting speed - Husqvarna regularly outperforms Stihl in tests. Better fuel efficiency - Larger Husqvarna fuel tanks need less refueling.

That's a quick stop. So if there's a kickback. Hopefully it stops the chain. And there's saws with multiple letters with multiple features so what's the difference between a ms-170. And an ms-171.

Full chisel, semi-chisel, chipper The sharp corner of the full chisel cutters split wood fibers easily and provides the fastest, most efficient cutting in clean softwood. The corner of the cutters on a semi-chisel saw chain are slightly rounded.

50:1 Most STIHL gasoline-powered equipment runs on a 50:1 mixture of gasoline and 2-cycle engine oil. Knowing the proper way to mix your fuel is the first step in keeping it running strong and long.

Power, measured by cubic centimeters (cc), differentiates chainsaw engines. A larger engine with 65 cc generates more power, which is useful when sawing through tough trees. Smaller engines with just 31 cc, meanwhile, are all you need to trim your hedges or slice thin, wooden boards.

The main difference between horsepower and cc lies in its definition; horsepower is the measurement of power of the engine while cc is the measurement of the volume or size of the engine. No matter how different the two words seem, they bear a significant relation with each other and can also be converted to the other.

All STIHL “C” series or comfort chain has an innovative design that keeps the heel or back of each cutter raised off the guide bar when the cutter is not cutting in wood. Notice the “C” below the STIHL in the picture above. When the cutter is cutting, the cutter rocks rearward and sits squarely on the guide bar.
