Stihl MS 162 12 Inch Petrol Chainsaw

Stihl MS 162 12 Inch Petrol Chainsaw

Make light work of processing firewood, pruning or felling small trees, the Stihl MS 162 petrol chainsaw is a reliable, entry-level choice for homeowners who require a high-powered tool that gets the job done. 

Expertly powered by a STIHL 2-MIX engine to ensure reduced emissions, the MS 162 boasts high-cutting performance with a 12" guide bar and 3/8"P saw with a narrow kerf. This 2-stroke engine is designed to be low maintenance whilst ensuring that fuel is used efficiently - even at high power levels, therefore reducing operating costs. The chainsaw's advanced combustion technology sees four overflow channels swirl the fuel-air mix before ignition to provide optimum combustion and highly efficient performance. Effortlessly started up with single-lever operation, the MS 162's Combi Lever with stop function allows a warm machine to be restarted immediately after interruptions for ease. The addition of a compensator in the carburettor ensures reduced maintenance, by using pressure compensation to ensure engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain virtually consistent over long periods of time. 

To prevent the risk of muscle and joint strain, the chainsaw features an effective anti-vibration system which reduces the transmission of vibrations to the handle to ensure maximum comfort during use. Conveniently fitted with a transparent oil tank to ensure that the level is always visible and you can clearly see when your MS 162 needs a refill. The chainsaw is finished with practical side-mounted chain tensioning to ensure that re-tensioning and replacement is safe and simple to do.

Please Note: Wear protective clothing and equipment when the chainsaw is in use.
