Description:

This isn't your father's electric chainsaw. Power, durability, and advanced cutting technology abound in the STIHL® MSE 170 C-B. Now you can leave behind fuel costs, exhaust fumes, and engine maintenance without sacrificing reliable cutting power. This electric chainsaw delivers all the power you need for tasks around the home (even indoors). With a powerhead weight of just under 8.5 pounds, the MSE 170 C-B is light enough for agile cutting work and features a wide trigger switch and the toolless STIHL Quickstop® chain brake for easy operation. There's even a coast-down feature which quickly stops the rotating chain when the trigger is released. Just plug it in and put it to work.

Features:

• STIHL® Electric Motor – Maintenance-free brushless DC motor features low noise levels and reduced vibration.
• STIHL Quick Chain Adjuster (QCA) (B) – The STIHL 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.
• Lightweight Portability – This product is lightweight for easy portability, great maneuverability, and extended use.
• Compact, Ergonomic Design – The compact, ergonomic design helps reduce user fatigue.
• Anti-Vibration System – 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.
• Throttle Trigger Interlock – This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
• 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.
