Stihl MS 171 Mini Boss™ Chainsaw
Petrol Chainsaw 35cm/14'' bar
A modern chainsaw for grounds maintenance. Side-mounted chain tensioning for safe and easy chain tensioning. Extensive features such a long-life air filter system prevents the air filter from prematurely clogging and STIHL anti-vibration system.
Great for cutting firewood, for building and for felling small trees. Up to 20% less fuel consumption and up to 70% fewer emissions compared to STIHL two-stroke engines of the same performance class without 2-MIX technology.
STIHL anti-vibration system
Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
Compensator
This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged - this keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.
