DESCRIPTION:

The STIHL® MS 261 C-M petrol chainsaw is the perfect tool for small to medium tree maintenance work. This new version features a newly designed STIHL ROLLOMATIC® Light 04 guide bar as well as the new .325” RS Pro saw chain for improved cutting performance. The high-performance .325” saw chain provides up to 20% more cutting performance compared to its predecessor (.325” RS) due to the narrower kerf. This light and well-balanced saw delivers plenty of power, whilst the STIHL M-Tronic™ technology controls the fuel and air mix at all times so the machine is always at optimum performance. The STIHL® anti-vibration system significantly reduces vibrations at the handles for comfortable use of this petrol chainsaw throughout your working day.

The MS 261 C-M is a versatile, professional petrol chainsaw allowing you to run a selection of different bar lengths to suit your needs. It also includes useful features such as the easy-clean HD2 filter, adjustable oil delivery to the bar and chain, stainless steel muffler, and captive nuts on the sprocket cover. The STIHL 2-MIX™ technology in the MS 261 C-M petrol chainsaw ensures up to 20% less fuel consumption and up to 50% less emissions compared to the equivalent STIHL® two-stroke engines without 2-MIX™ technology.

FEATURES:

• RELIABLE WORK WITH THE BEST PERFORMANCE.
• With STIHL M-Tronic™, you’ll have the best performance from your work tool from the outset. Fully electronic engine management regulates the ignition timing and fuel metering in all work situations, taking into account external conditions such as temperature, altitude, and fuel quality.
• STIHL M-Tronic™
• The HD2 filter is made from polyethylene filter material with up to 70% finer pores than fleece and polyamide filters to trap even very fine dust. In addition, it is oil and water-repellent and thus very easy to clean. The PET-covered filter cartridge with quick-release lock enables the filter to be assembled and disassembled in next to no time, without using tools.
• HD2 filter for the MS 261
• EFFORTLESS START-UP.
• The decompression valve makes it easier to start your tool. When starting, you can allow some of the compressed mixture to escape from the cylinder by opening the valve. This protects the start-up system and reduces the amount of force required on the starter cord.
• Decompression valve
• Allows a precise, demand-based delivery of oil. It's possible to reduce oil production by up to 50% in the E position. For very long cutting attachments or very dry wood, an additional volume of oil can be added by the user. Similar to illustration.
• Controlled-delivery oil pump
