| AGZA Certified |
Meets the low-emission standards established by the American Green Zone Alliance. |
| Captive Bar Nut |
The captive bar nut is held securely in place, which eliminates the risk of dropping or losing the bar nut during saw chain maintenance. |
| Electronic Operating System |
Located by the handle of the saw, the electronic operating system allows the operator to easily see how the saw is running |
| Ematic™ Lubrication System |
The Ematic™ guide bar, when used with STIHL OILOMATIC® saw chain, will provide proper lubrication and less oil consumption than conventional methods. The system works because two ramps, strategically placed in the guide bar rail, help contain the flow of oil and direct all lubrication to the sliding faces of the bar and chain links as well as the rivets and driver holes, which in turn can reduce bar oil consumption up to 50%. |
| Lightweight Portability |
Great for maneuverability and extended use. |
| Low Oil Sensor |
The low oil sensor allows the operator to see when the oil is low so they can keep the bar and chain properly lubricated. |
| Magnesium Motor Housing |
The magnesium motor housing provides added durability to this powerful chainsaw. |
| Reduced-Emission Engine Technology - Caring for Nature |
The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards. |
| Rubberized Soft Touch Handle |
Soft rubber texture is both easy to grip and makes the product comfortable to hold for extended periods. |
| Side-Access Chain Tensioner |
The side-access chain tensioner makes it much more convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw. |
| STIHL Electric Motor |
Lightweight and compact, STIHL electric motors require minimal maintenance and feature low noise levels and reduced vibration. |
| STIHL Quickstop® |
STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called a STIHL Quickstop® chain brake. The STIHL Quickstop® chain brake is designed to stop the rotation of the chain if activated by the operator’s hand or by inertia if the saw kicks back with sufficient force. In some working positions, the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake can be activated by inertia, stopping the chain within fractions of a second. |
| STIHL's Most Powerful Battery Chainsaw |
With power comparable to the gas-powered MS 271, the MSA 300 C-O is the most powerful battery chainsaw in the STIHL lineup. |
