MS 400.1 C-M Petrol Chainsaw: High-performance forestry saw in the 60cc class

The STIHL MS 400.1 C-M petrol chainsaw sets new standards in the 60cc class. It delivers the best power-to-weight ratio in its category. As a result, professionals gain strong cutting performance without extra bulk.

Built for demanding forestry work, this saw handles felling, delimbing, and wood preparation with ease. It weighs just 5.5 kg, which makes it 300 g lighter than the previous MS 400. Despite its smaller engine displacement, it still produces an impressive 3.9 kW of power.

In addition, the MS 400.1 generates 4.3 Nm of torque. Therefore, it cuts through large timber with less pressure. It also resists bogging down during heavy cuts. Thanks to M-Tronic technology, the saw starts quickly and accelerates fast.

Engine improvements further enhance performance. A larger magnesium flywheel helps manage heat during operation. Meanwhile, the improved muffler supports efficient cooling. These updates keep the saw running smoothly throughout long working days.

The redesigned rear handle improves comfort and control. Its widened profile rests securely against your leg, which makes plunge cutting easier. At the same time, the compact design boosts manoeuvrability.

The ribbed underside allows the saw to glide along trunks while snedding. Consequently, bark and twigs are less likely to catch. The HD2 filter keeps the engine clean in tough environments and reduces maintenance time.

The fuel tank includes a 50% marker, so you can quickly check levels. Access to the oil pump control bolt has also improved. This allows you to adjust oil flow easily using a combi-spanner.

Overall, the MS 400.1 combines power, balance, and reliability for professional forestry work.
