MSA 80 C-B (Unit Only) Features & Benefits

  • Brushless Motor
    The advanced brushless motor virtually eliminates maintenance while supplying the power and performance you expect from STIHL.
  • Ematic™ Lubrication System
    The Ematic™ guide bar, when used with STIHL OILOMATIC® saw chain, will provide proper lubrication and less oil consumption than conventional methods. The system works because two ramps, strategically placed in the guide bar rail, help contain the flow of oil and direct all lubrication to the sliding faces of the bar and chain links as well as the rivets and driver holes, which in turn can reduce bar oil consumption up to 50%.
  • Lightweight Portability
    This product is lightweight for easy portability, great maneuverability, and extended use.
  • Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B)
    The Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) allows the user to adjust the tension of the chain without the use of tools. This allows for easy chain adjustment.
  • Rubberized Soft-Touch Handle
    Soft rubber texture is both easy to grip and makes the product comfortable to hold for extended periods.  
  • Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers
    Simply lift the lever and twist the caps to remove or tighten. There’s no need to use a tool to tighten or loosen.
  • Trigger-Switch Lockout
    Trigger-switch lockout prevents activation of the trigger-switch until depressed.
  • Power-to-Weight Ratio
    Weighing only 10.1lbs. and delivering 1.20 kW of power, the MSA 80 C-B yields one of the industry’s best power-to-weight ratios.
  • 14” Guide Bar
    The MSA 80 C-B is the first battery chainsaw in the AK System to feature a 14” bar, giving homeowners a heavy-duty option for firewood cutting and yard maintenance.
  • Variable-Speed Trigger
    With the ability to adjust speed depending on the job, the variable-speed trigger allows users to optimize performance and run times.
  • Transparent Oil Tank
    The transparent oil tank makes it easy for users to keep track of oil levels.
  • STIHL Quickstop®
    STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called a STIHL Quickstop® chain brake. The STIHL Quickstop® chain brake is designed to stop the rotation of the chain if activated by the operator’s hand or by inertia if the saw kicks back with sufficient force. In some working positions, the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake can be activated by inertia, stopping the chain within fractions of a second.
