    From firewood cutting to storm cleanup, the MSA 160 C-B offers durable, dependable performance powered by lithium-ion battery technology with zero exhaust emissions.

    The MSA 160 C-B battery-powered chainsaw features lithium-ion technology for maximum power and zero exhaust emissions. This lightweight, durable weather-resistant chainsaw provides optimal function firewood cutting, storm cleanup, and carpentry work. It comes equipped with the new Light 01 guide bar and ¼” PM3 chain for increased cutting performance over the previous model, as well as a translucent oil tank which makes it easy for users to check oil levels at a glance. The easy start trigger and Quick Chain Adjuster help get the job done with ease and efficiency. Enjoy run times up to 62 minutes when paired with the AP 300 S battery.

    Run time may vary based on battery type, charge level and capacity, model, operating style and conditions. Batteries and chargers can be purchased separately or as a combined set with tool.

    This tool is IPX4-rated for weather-resistant construction and has been designed and tested for splash-water protection.

    Features:

    • IPX4 Rating - This tool is IPX4-rated for weather-resistant construction and has been designed and tested for splash-water protection.
    • 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%.
    • 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.
    • Brushless Motor - The advanced brushless motor virtually eliminates maintenance while supplying the power and performance you expect from STIHL.
    • Lightweight High-Powered Chainsaw - Featuring innovative battery technology, the lightweight chainsaw brings power and efficiency to maintenance tasks like storm cleanup and firewood cutting.
    • Variable-Speed Trigger - The variable-speed trigger allows precise control for each task.
    • Rubberized Soft-Touch Handle - Soft rubber texture is both easy to grip and makes the product comfortable to hold for extended periods. 
    • Toolless and Translucent Bar and Chain Oil Tank - The translucent bar and chain oil tank makes it easy for users to check oil levels at a glance.
    • Side-Access Chain Tensioner - The side-access chain tensioner makes it much more convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw.
    • 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.
    • Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature - The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.

    Warnings and Safety

    Proposition 65 Warning: Cancer and Reproductive Harm
    WARNING FOR CORDED-ELECTRIC USERS! STIHL recommends that leg protection be worn when operating corded electric chainsaws. However, the fibers may not stop the sprocket on most corded electric chainsaws because of the constant high torque.
    IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION The occurrence called “kickback” can cause serious or fatal injury. Always read the instruction manual carefully before using your saw. STIHL uses a green and yellow color-coding system to help you select a powerhead, bar and chain combination that complies with the kickback requirements of ANSI Standard B175.1 (gasoline-powered saws) and §30 of UL 1662/ ANSI Standard B175.1 (electric chainsaws). Ask your STIHL dealer about safe operating procedures and the advantages of the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake, STIHL Quickstop® Plus additional chain braking feature, STIHL reduced kickback bars and STIHL low-kickback saw chains.

    STIHL recommends the use of green reduced kickback bars and green low kickback chains on all STIHL chainsaws.
    * The actual listed guide bar length can vary from the effective cutting length based on which powerhead it is installed on.
    WARNING FOR ELECTRIC CHAINSAW USERS!
    The fibers will not stop the sprocket on most electric chainsaws because of their constant high torque.

    WARNING! Improper use of any power tool may cause serious or fatal injury. Read, understand, and follow carefully the operating and safety instructions in your instruction manual before using such products.
