Stihl MSA 161 T battery top handled chainsaw

Product Description

*Battery & charger not included.*

The MSA 161 T is the next generation in cordless top handle chainsaws. This 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. To improve safety the MSA 161 T features a new side-lock button, which has to be engaged in order to operate the chainsaw. For improved handling, the throttle interlock lever has been lengthened to cover a larger part of the handle. 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.

This machine cannot be used with a Stihl AP100 battery.
