Stihl MS 291 Petrol Chainsaw
The Stihl MS 291 petrol chainsaw is a reliable and powerful tool designed for agricultural, landscaping, and heavy-duty domestic work. Whether you’re processing firewood, felling small trees, or maintaining large rural properties, the Stihl MS 291 petrol chainsaw delivers the durability and performance required for frequent use in demanding environments.
High-Performance 2‑MIX Engine
At the heart of the MS 291 is a 50.2 cc Stihl 2‑MIX engine that produces 2.8 kW (3.8 hp) of cutting power. This engine is engineered to reduce fuel consumption by up to 20% and cut emissions by up to 50% compared to conventional two-stroke engines, making it more economical and environmentally responsible.
Built for Efficiency
The long-life air filter system includes pre-separation, which removes larger particles before they reach the filter, extending its service life and maintaining consistent engine performance. The compensator carburettor ensures a steady fuel-air mix, even as the air filter becomes dirty, so the saw continues running smoothly.
Comfortable and Practical Operation
With a power-to-weight ratio of just 2.0 kg/kW, the MS 291 remains easy to handle despite its powerful output. The anti-vibration system reduces fatigue during extended use, while single-lever operation simplifies control of start, choke, throttle, and stop functions.
Quick Maintenance Features
Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for fast, safe adjustments using a tool. The chainsaw also includes tool-free filler caps and transparent fuel and oil tanks for easy monitoring and refilling. These practical touches help reduce downtime and keep you working efficiently.
