Stihl MS 231 C-BE Wood Boss® Chainsaw
Stihl MS 231 C-BE Wood Boss® Chainsaw
Petrol Chainsaw 40cm/16'' bar
A compact chainsaw with good power-to-weight ratio. With up to 20% less fuel consumption and up to 70% fewer emissions compared to STIHL two-stroke engines of the same performance class without 2-MIX technology. Ideal for cutting firewood and felling small trees and when a bit more power is needed. Easy to guide, great handling.
Equipped with STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning and STIHL Easy2Start.
STIHL anti-vibration system
Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
Compensator
This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged - this keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.
Single-lever master control
All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever.
Manual fuel pump (Purger)
A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required from a cold start.
Pre-separation air filtration system
The innovative long-life air filter system greatly extends the service life of the filter - air routing removes larger particles of dirt, meaning the actual filter has less to do so the saw can be used for longer without having to clean the filter.
Easy2Start
Easy starting with less effort due to an additional spring between the crankshaft and the rope rotor. A smooth pull on the starter rope tensions the spring against the compression resistance of the engine; the spring automatically transmits the stored energy to the crankshaft, causing it to turn and ensuring reliable starting.
