MSA 60 Cordless Chainsaw – AK System

Part of STIHL’s AK System for homeowners, the MSA 60 C-B delivers petrol-like bite without fumes or noise restrictions. The 0.7 kW EC motor drives the narrow-kerf ¼″ PM3 chain at high speed, making clean work of pruning, firewood and felling stems up to 20 cm diameter.
Tool-free Quick Chain Tensioning and a toolless flip-cap oil tank keep maintenance fast, while the improved Ergo-lever trigger gives precise speed control at awkward angles.
Thanks to constant-power electronics, cutting performance stays consistent until the battery is empty, and IPX4 weather sealing means you can keep working even in light rain.
