• The MS 271 chainsaw is a mid-range unit in the new generation of low-emission, fuel-efficient STIHL chainsaws
• Featuring a stratified sweep motor and modern construction technology, it offers an ergonomic, high-performance anti-vibration system to ensure operator comfort
• Tool-free tank caps with retaining wires, a translucent fuel tank, a side-mounted chain tensioner and an easy-to-maintain, long-life air filtration system make this high-performance chainsaw the right choice for landscapers and farmers
• STIHL’s 2-stroke stratified scavenging engine allows you to reduce exhaust emissions and fuel consumption, and therefore operating costs
• Low maintenance and low fuel consumption, even at high power levels
• Use a mixture of gasoline and engine oil as fuel
• The 2-stroke stratified scavenging engine complies with the strict European Stage V emission limits directive
• By switching the chainsaw from summer to winter operation, the air intake is preheated by the engine fins
• In this way, the carburetor doesn’t freeze and you can continue working in cold weather
• Particularly noticeable vibrations in the grip area can occur when your machines are running at high power
• The shock absorbers and springs of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body
• Side-mounted chain tensioner for safe, simple and fast chain tensioning and replacement
• The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover
• Bar length: 18"
