Features

MS 881

Standard features

  • STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM Zoom
    STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM

    Vibrations from power tools can lead to negative effects on blood vessels. STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the levels. This also helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.

  • DECOMPRESSION VALVE Zoom
    DECOMPRESSION VALVE

    The decompression valve is part of the easy start-system. The valve should be pressed before starting in order to reduce the compression pressure when starting, as well as the effort needed to pull the starter rope. The decompression valve is semi-automatic, meaning that it must be pressed manually before starting, but then closes automatically.

  • HD2 FILTER Zoom
    HD2 FILTER

    The HD2 filter protects your power tool’s engine against even the finest dust, ensuring a longer service life and reduced wear. The filter made from robust PET material and is oil and water-repellent, making it easier to clean the filter. The filter cartridge can also be easily replaced without tools.

  • COMPENSATOR Zoom
    COMPENSATOR

    The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, that uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance, letting you work for a long time without maintenance.

  • CONTROLLED-DELIVERY OIL PUMP Zoom
    CONTROLLED-DELIVERY OIL PUMP

    Different bar lengths, wood types and sawing techniques require different amounts of oil. The controlled-delivery oil pump allows the user to select just the right amount of oil for the job.

  • SIDE CHAIN TENSIONING Zoom
    SIDE CHAIN TENSIONING

    The tensioning screw is located on the side of the chainsaw through the sprocket cover. Chain side tensioning allows the saw chain to be re-tensioned effortlessly, avoiding any contact with the sharp chain.

  • CARBURETTOR HEATING Zoom
    CARBURETTOR HEATING

    By changing the Chainsaw from summer to winter operation, the intake air is pre-heated over the engine fins. This ensures that the carburettor does not ice up and you can continue working in freezing temperatures.

  • STIHL ELASTOSTART Zoom
    STIHL ELASTOSTART

    STIHL ElastoStart reduces the resistance caused by the compression of the engine when pulling the starter cord, through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.

  • TOOL-FREE FUEL AND OIL CAPS Zoom
    TOOL-FREE FUEL AND OIL CAPS

    Special caps on the fuel and oil tanks are designed for easy opening and locking without the need for tools.

  • SINGLE MASTER CONTROL LEVER Zoom
    SINGLE MASTER CONTROL LEVER

    All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever.

  • STIHL EMATIC SYSTEM Zoom
    STIHL EMATIC SYSTEM

    A reservoir holds bar oil until it is picked up by the passing chain. This achieves maximum lubrication resulting in longer wear and less oil consumption.
