Practical cordless chainsaw for professional tree maintenance
This lightweight chainsaw is very popular with tree maintenance professionals due to its weight of just 2.5 kg (without battery) and its engine power. Thanks to the high chain speed of 16 m/s, the strong acceleration and the STIHL 1/4" PM3 chain, you can make fine, extremely precise cuts. Another advantage of the STIHL MSA 161 T cordless chainsaw: You can also use this cordless chainsaw in areas with noise restrictions such as residential areas, as well as around schools or hospitals. Communication between tree maintenance workers and their assistants on site is also simplified, as there is no need to wear hearing protection.
The chain of the STIHL MSA 161 T cordless chainsaw can be easily and safely tensioned laterally without coming into contact with the saw chain. The STIHL QuickStop Super brake system provides additional safety: This means that the chain stops within seconds, not only in the event of kickback, but also when the rear handle is released. You can also activate or release the chain brake using the hand guard. The hand guard locks into place with a click.
