About the STIHL MS 171 Petrol Chainsaw
The STIHL MS 171 petrol chainsaw is the ideal starter chainsaw and perfect for cutting firewood.
A Beginner-Friendly Chainsaw for Home Use
The STIHL MS 171 stands as an excellent entry-level chainsaw for those new to garden maintenance and firewood cutting.
Offering a step up in power from the MS 170, it features a robust STIHL 2-MIX 31.8 cm³ petrol engine delivering 1.3 kW.
Available with either a 14 inch / 35 cm or a 12 inch / 30 cm bar and chain, this model is equipped with a 3/8 inch Pico Micro Mini 3 chain, tailored for efficient cutting.
Enhanced User Comfort and Safety Features
User comfort is paramount with the MS 171, incorporating anti-vibration technology to significantly mitigate handle vibrations from engine oscillations.
Simplifying operation, it includes a single-lever master control for essential functions like starting, choking, throttling, and stopping.
The addition of a side chain tensioner allows for easy adjustments without direct contact with the chain. Furthermore, tool-free filler caps for fuel and oil tanks offer convenience and safety, ensuring hassle-free refueling and maintenance.
Durable and Efficient Design
The MS 171 benefits from the E-matic chain lubrication system, providing precise lubrication to the saw chain links and guide bar rails. This not only extends wear but also cuts bar oil consumption by up to 50% compared to traditional lubrication methods. Coupled with a long-life air filtration system, the chainsaw enjoys a noticeably extended filter lifespan, ensuring durability and reduced maintenance.
Exceptional Performance for Every Task
Leveraging advanced combustion technology, the MS 171 ensures optimal fuel-air mixing before ignition, leading to superior combustion and efficiency. This technology offers lower fuel consumption and high torque across a wide rpm range.
A built-in compensator in the carburettor maintains a steady fuel/air ratio, preserving engine power and reducing the frequency of air filter cleanings until a significant power decrease is noted.
