Powerful, Efficient, and Built to Last: The STIHL MS 251 C-BE Petrol Chainsaw

The STIHL MS 251CBE Petrol Chainsaw combines strength, precision, and user convenience in one compact, high-performance package. Whether you’re cutting firewood, shaping timber, or managing an estate, it delivers the dependable performance that makes STIHL chainsaws such a trusted choice amongst professionals and homeowners alike. With advanced engineering and a user-friendly design, this new STIHL chainsaw makes very light work of demanding jobs.

Expertly Engineered for Clean, Economical Power

Driven by a 45.6 cm³ STIHL 2-MIX engine, the MS251CBE STIHL Petrol Chainsaw produces an impressive 3 horsepower (2.2 kW) of output, offering powerful cutting torque with excellent fuel economy. Compared with earlier two-stroke engines of equivalent power, it uses up to 20% less fuel and reduces emissions by around 70%. With an excellent power-to-weight ratio of 2.40 kg/kW, this STIHL chainsaw balances strength with comfort, giving you reliable performance for long periods of time without experiencing fatigue.

Versatile Bar Options for Precise Cutting

This STIHL pro chainsaw is available with either a 16-inch (40 cm) or 18-inch (45 cm) guide bar, so you can select the right setup for your work. The .325″ chain pitch delivers smooth, controlled cutting, while sturdy metal bumper spikes help maintain firm contact with the wood for improved safety and precision. From heavy-duty log cutting to fine timber shaping, this STIHL professional chainsaw delivers clean, consistent results.

Easy Starting and Comfortable Handling

Starting a chainsaw has never been simpler, thanks to STIHL ErgoStart. A soft, steady pull on the starter cord is all that’s needed to bring the engine to life, with a spring-assisted system reducing the effort required. The manual fuel pump helps speed up starts after periods of storage, ensuring reliability in all weather conditions. Add to that STIHL’s anti-vibration system, which minimises the transfer of vibrations from the engine to the handles, and you have a chainsaw that feels exceptionally smooth and comfortable to use.

Reduced Oil Use and Effortless Chain Adjustment

The STIHL Ematic system delivers chain oil exactly where it’s needed, reducing oil consumption by as much as 50%. This ensures efficient lubrication, cleaner operation, and lower maintenance costs. Adjusting the chain is equally straightforward thanks to STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning, which lets you fine-tune the tension without the need for tools. A simple twist of the wheel keeps your chain secure and your saw performing at its best.

Durable Build and Reduced Maintenance

Built to last, this STIHL handheld chainsaw includes a compensator system that automatically maintains the ideal air-fuel ratio even as the filter becomes dirty, helping sustain optimal power output for longer. The long-life air filtration system, with pre-separation routing and an HD2 filter, traps even fine dust particles before they reach the engine. This not only extends cleaning intervals but also enhances engine longevity, keeping your chainsaw dependable through every season.

Smart, Versatile Design

The MS 251 CBE STIHL pruning chainsaw is as convenient as it is capable. Its tool-free, bayonet-style fuel and oil caps make refilling quick and simple, while an ergonomic body ensures comfortable handling and solid control.
