Another advantage of the STIHL MSA 161 T battery-powered chainsaw: you can also use it in noise-sensitive areas such as residential neighborhoods, schools, or hospitals . Communication between the arborist and helpers on the ground is also simplified, as hearing protection is not required.
The chain of the STIHL MSA 161 T cordless chainsaw can be easily and safely tensioned from the side without coming into contact with the saw chain. Additionally , the chain brake can be activated or released via the hand guard . The hand guard will audibly click into place.
