Stihl MS300C-M Petrol Chainsaw 18″

The STIHL MS 300 C-M is a professional petrol chainsaw developed for foresters, arborists and demanding users who need a powerful, lightweight and easy-to-handle saw for everyday forestry work. Replacing the popular MS 261 C-M, the MS 300 C-M has been completely redeveloped to deliver exceptional performance in the 50 cc chainsaw class. With a powerhead weighing just 4.8 kg, a 53.3 cc engine and 3.3 kW power output, it offers an outstanding power-to-weight ratio for fast and effortless pruning, processing timber, cutting firewood and felling small to medium-sized trees.

Using the latest STIHL M-Tronic 3.0 engine management system, the MS 300 C-M automatically adjusts fuel metering and ignition timing to deliver optimum engine performance in all working conditions. Combined with the STIHL 2-MIX engine, this ensures reliable and easy starting, reduced fuel consumption and strong cutting performance. Thanks to its larger engine, the MS 300 C-M delivers 15% more torque than the MS 261 C-M, helping the saw maintain cutting speed in thicker wood with less risk of bogging down mid-cut. Rapid chain acceleration, comparable with the fuel-injected MS 500i, takes the chain from 0 to 100 km/h in just 0.25 seconds. The STIHL .325″ RS Pro saw chain together with the STIHL Light 04 guide bar provide excellent cutting performance and precise handling, helping you work faster and more accurately.

Designed with professional users in mind, the MS 300 C-M combines a compact body, low gyroscopic forces and improved rear handle geometry for exceptional handling during felling, limbing, snedding and plunge cutting. Parallel plunge-cutting direction lines on the fan housing and a vertical felling line help to guide the saw, providing greater accuracy and control. The wide knee support and STIHL anti-vibration system make the MS 300 C-M comfortable to use during long working days.

The MS 300 C-M also includes a range of practical features designed to minimise interruptions during working and make maintenance easier. These include:

An easy-to-access adjustable oil pump allows quick adjustment of oil flow using a standard combination tool.
A 50% fuel level marker provides a fast visual indication of when a refill is needed.
An optimised rib pattern on the underside helps the saw glide more smoothly along tree trunks during snedding and reduces dirt build-up, making the machine easier to clean.
A long-life HD2 air filter system with pre-separation extends service intervals and reduces maintenance downtime.
The STIHL Ematic system delivers oil exactly where it is needed, reducing oil consumption by up to 50% while maintaining optimum lubrication of the guide bar and chain.
