Stihl MSA 70 C-B Cordless Chainsaw with 12"/30cm Bar

The MSA 70 battery-powered chainsaw is a lightweight cordless chainsaw for cutting firewood and garden maintenance with 25% improved cutting performance compared to the MSA 60. Fitted with a 12” guide bar, it is designed for private use at home, such as cutting firewood, pruning branches, wood working and felling small trees of up to 20 cm in diameter.

Other features of the MSA 70 include an improved Ergo lever on the back handle for greater comfort during use and across different cutting angles. The trigger system allows for maximum control over the chain speed, for working across different materials, around shrubs or on wood working projects. A transparent chain oil tank offers better visibility of oil levels. The quick chain tensioner allows the sprocket cover to be removed and the chain tensioned without the need for additional tools. Plus, the MSA 70 is fitted with a ¼” PM3 saw chain which provides a clean cut and impressive cutting performance.

The MSA 70 can be used with the AK 30 S battery. Working time with the recommended AK 30 S battery is around 45 minutes / 210 cuts.

Features:

RE-TENSION THE SAW CHAIN TOOL-FREE.
Thanks to STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning, you can tension your saw chain quickly and without tools, thanks to the adjusting wheel. Turning the adjusting wheel to the left releases tension on the saw chain, and turning the adjustment wheel to the right tensions the saw chain. The guide bar will be automatically secured when you tighten the sprocket cover.

FOR COMFORTABLE HANDLING.
Thanks to the soft components on the control handle, your work tool sits comfortably in the hand and can be guided safely. The softgrip handle also improves your grip, especially when wet. The ergonomic lever also makes work easier, as there is no need to unlock the machine again while working, as long as one hand continuously remains on the rear handle.

ENSURES COMFORTABLE WORK.
Your STIHL chainsaw has an ergonomically shaped handle and a comfortable rear control handle with soft components. Thanks to this two-handed operation, you can work comfortably, effortlessly and safely in all positions.

MAKES FILL-LEVEL MONITORING EASY.
With the transparent oil tank, you can easily and quickly check the fill level of the chain oil. This means that you always know when you need to add chain oil for efficient work over long periods.

LOW-MAINTENANCE AND EFFICIENT.
Thanks to its compact design, low weight and high efficiency, the EC engine enables you to work in an energy efficient manner. This engine also has a long service life.

QUICK AND EASY TO USE.
Thanks to the bayonet closure, you can open and close the tool-free fuel cap in just a few simple steps.
