Stihl MS 400.1 C-M Petrol Chainsaw

Weighing 5.5kg (300g lighter than the MS 400) and with a smaller engine displacement, it still maintains an impressive power output of 3.9 kW, which gives the best power-to-weight ratio of 60cc petrol chainsaws available. The MS 400.1 has 4.3 Nm of torque, which is an increase of 4.1 Nm of torque on the MS 400 – which means the chainsaw is less pressure sensitive when cutting large timber and is less likely to bog down during the cut. M-Tronic technology means the MS 400.1 is easy to start and has super-fast acceleration too. 

Alongside engine improvements, a larger magnesium flywheel and improved muffle helps keep the saw cool during operation.  The geometry of the rear handle has been improved for more comfortable handling, and the profile of the end has been widened to rest securely on your leg, resulting in easier plunge cutting. This, combined with the new compact design, makes the MS 400.1 exceptionally easy to handle. The rib pattern on the underside of the chainsaw helps it glide along the trunk when snedding, preventing bark and twigs from getting caught. The new HD2 filter helps keep the saw running in tough conditions and cuts down on maintenance / downtime during the working day. 

The petrol tank has a 50% marker which gives you a quick indication of the fuel level, helping you keep track of consumption. Access to the oil pump control bolt has been improved too, meaning you can adjust oil flow on the job using a combi-spanner.
