Description

The Stihl MS 261 C-M Petrol Chainsaw is a powerful and versatile professional chainsaw, ideal for forestry work and tree maintenance in small to medium-density stands. Equipped with a newly designed Light 04 guide bar and high-performance .325″ RS Pro saw chain, this model delivers up to 20% more cutting performance than its predecessor thanks to a narrower kerf and optimised chain design.

With a robust 3.0 kW 2-MIX engine, the MS 261 C-M offers outstanding power-to-weight balance while using up to 20% less fuel and producing up to 50% fewer emissions compared to standard two-stroke Stihl engines without 2-MIX technology.

Thanks to Stihl’s M-Tronic engine management system, the chainsaw automatically adjusts fuel and air ratios for optimal performance in all conditions—ensuring easy starting, consistent power and excellent reliability day in, day out.
