Stihl MS231 C-BE 16 Inch Petrol Chainsaw
Whether for use in farming, landscaping or agricultural environments, the MS231 C-BE Chainsaw from Stihl will make light work of felling small trees, general ground maintenance or logging firewood for a cosy night by the fire! The versatile, all-purpose Chainsaw boasts an impressive range of economical and environmentally sound features thanks to the innovatively designed Stihl 2-Mix engine. Cutting harmful emissions by up to 70% and curtailing fuel consumption by up to 20%, Stihl's 2-Mix technology is the energy-efficient option rather than 2-stroke engines of the same power output.
Compared to the standard MS231, the C-BE features the additional easy starting system, requiring just two fingers and a light pulling action to kick start with the Stihl ErgoStart mechanism.
Delivering exceptional cutting performance whilst being compact and lightweight, this easy to use Chainsaw is fitted with Stihl's anti-vibration system for maximum comfort and control, reducing hand fatigue during extended sawing periods. Both domestic users and farmers will value the simple setup and operation of the MS321 C-BE, benefitting from the Stihl Quick Chain Tensioning and single angle-lever master control which will revolutionise tiresome garden chores for the better!
Stihl manufacturers ensure their high-quality Chainsaws are crafted with durability and reliability in mind. Fitted with a pre-separation air filtration system, the long-lasting filter life of the MS231 C-BE is protected as it naturally becomes clogged thanks to the carburettor's compensator. Controlling the fuel-air mixture, these ergonomically designed measures maintain the engine power for consistent high-powered performance. Complete with automatic Stihl Ematic chain lubrication, the MS231 C-BE regulates oil bar consumption for optimum durable wear of the chain.
