Other convenience features include pre-separation air filtration system and a redesigned spiked bumper. Add the MS 261 to your jobsite today.
  • The Adjustable Automatic Oiler allows the user to adjust the lubricant of the guide bar and saw chain for different bar lengths and cutting conditions
  • The side-access chain tensioner makes it much more convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw
  • The Master Control Lever is an easy to use single lever, operating the choke, starting throttle lock and on-off switch, the operator must pull the throttle trigger before moving the Master Control Lever to the choke position
  • The STIHL Inc. Caring for Nature seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions
  • STIHL Inc. defines low exhaust emissions as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards
  • STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment
  • The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience
  • The decompression valve, also referred to as 'deco' or 'deco valve', vents compression in the cylinder for easier starting
  • The decompression valve temporarily reduces the compression in the combustion chamber during cranking and helps reduce the effort needed to pull the starter rope
  • It is opened manually and closes automatically as soon as the engine fires
