Stihl MSA161T 12" Arborist Cordless Chainsaw - Bare Unit

For purchase by certified arborists only.

THIS IS A BARE UNIT – NO BATTERIES OR CHARGER SUPPLIED

The MSA 161 T is the next generation in cordless top handle chainsaws. This light weight chainsaw features a 40% higher chain speed and 15% increase in motor performance over its predecessor, the MSA 160 T. The low profile, ¼ P chain reduces chain chatter for a smooth and precise finish. The battery-powered chainsaw features a trigger side-lock button for added safety, a large throttle interlock lever and carrying ring for attaching the saw for aerial use. The cordless nature of the new saw means that the MSA 161 T is so quiet in operation that ear defenders are not required while working. With a run time of up to 42 minutes with the AP 200 battery (2018 version), this cordless chainsaw is a perfect addition to the fleet.

Side chain tensioner
The tensioning screw can be found on the side of the chain saw through the sprocket cover. This removes the need for contact with the sharp saw chain.

New operating system
Side-lock button for increased safety remains locked until this button is pushed in.

Toolless filler cap
The tank can be filled quickly and easily using the toolless filler cap.

Hand guard
Ensures clear feedback when engaging or disengaging the chain brake.
