Stihl MS 500i W Chainsaw – Fuel Injection with Heated Handle
The Stihl MS 500i W Chainsaw is the first in the world with electronic fuel injection. It combines 5 kW (6.8 hp) of power, fast acceleration, and advanced comfort. Built for forestry, heavy timber, and cold conditions, it also includes heated handles for warmth and control during long shifts.
Weighing only 6.2 kg, the 79.2 cm³ 2-MIX engine delivers one of the best power-to-weight ratios available. As a result, you can work efficiently without excess fatigue. Designed for professional use, it provides strength, speed, and reliable performance across tough environments.
Fuel Injection for Consistent Power
Stihl Injection technology uses smart sensors to regulate fuel and ignition. Therefore, it ensures dependable operation at high altitudes, in cold weather, or in dusty conditions. No choke is required, so starting is always quick and simple.
Comfortable Heated Handle System
The heated handle keeps your hands warm and secure in winter. This feature improves comfort, reduces fatigue, and allows precise handling. Consequently, the MS 500i W is an excellent choice for professionals who work year-round.
Reliable Construction for Daily Use
This chainsaw includes side-mounted chain tensioning, captive nuts, and tool-free fuel and oil caps. In addition, the Ematic chain lubrication system reduces oil use by up to 50%. The HD2 air filter protects the engine, while the anti-vibration system enhances comfort during long hours of cutting.
Precision Cutting Control
Optimised bumper spikes, a slim sprocket cover, and plunge cutting guides improve accuracy. These details help you maintain control and deliver clean results, even when working on large timber.
