The STIHL MS 500i 50cm (20″) Petrol Chainsaw delivers exceptional performance for professionals who demand maximum speed, power, and reliability. Most importantly, this model features STIHL Injection electronic fuel injection technology, which removes the traditional carburettor. As a result, the chainsaw provides instant throttle response, consistent power delivery, and improved fuel efficiency in a wide range of working conditions.
Outstanding Power and Performance
The MS 500i produces an impressive 5.0 kW (6.8 hp) output. Consequently, it offers one of the best power-to-weight ratios in its class. This strong performance allows operators to cut quickly and efficiently while still maintaining excellent balance and control. Furthermore, the 50 cm (20″) guide bar makes the saw ideal for felling, harvesting, and processing medium to large timber in demanding forestry and arboricultural environments.
Designed for Professional Durability
STIHL designed the MS 500i to withstand intensive daily use. For example, the HD2 heavy-duty air filtration system helps extend service intervals and protects the engine in dusty environments. In addition, the advanced anti-vibration system reduces strain on the operator, which improves comfort during long working hours.
Convenient and Practical Features
Moreover, the chainsaw includes side-mounted chain tensioning, allowing users to make quick and safe chain adjustments. The tool-free fuel and oil caps also simplify refuelling, enabling operators to get back to work quickly and reduce downtime on site.
Professional Cutting Performance
Overall, the STIHL MS 500i combines power, precision, and modern engineering. Therefore, it stands out as a top choice for professional forestry workers, arborists, and contractors who need fast cutting speeds, reliable performance, and maximum efficiency in demanding environments.
