Stihl MS 881 Petrol Chainsaw
The Stihl MS 881 petrol chainsaw is the world’s most powerful production chainsaw. Built for professionals, it handles the toughest forestry jobs with ease. Whether you’re felling massive trees or cutting oversized timber, the Stihl MS 881 petrol chainsaw delivers unmatched performance and reliability.
Maximum Cutting Power
This saw is powered by a 121.6 cc 2‑MIX engine producing 6.4 kW (8.6 hp). Despite its power, it maintains a strong power-to-weight ratio. With a powerhead weight of just 9.9 kg, it remains surprisingly manageable in tough conditions.
Clean and Consistent Performance
Thanks to the IntelliCarb compensating carburettor, air and fuel ratios adjust automatically. Even when the air filter is dirty, performance remains consistent. The HD2 filter with pre-separation keeps debris out, extending maintenance intervals and improving durability.
Comfortable to Use
Starting is made easier with ElastoStart and a decompression valve. These features reduce the effort required during start-up. In addition, the anti-vibration system protects your hands and arms, especially during long cutting sessions.
Efficient Oil Usage
The Ematic chain lubrication system precisely directs oil to the chain. As a result, it uses up to 50% less oil compared to standard systems. Tool-free filler caps also make topping up fuel and oil quick and simple.
Engineered for Big Jobs
This model supports guide bars from 30″ to 41″, including Rollomatic ES and Duromatic. Moreover, the slim sprocket cover improves chip clearance. Steel bumper spikes and a plunge-cut guide give you extra control when working through thick timber.
