Tested my New STIHL MiniBoss Petrol Chainsaw MS 180 16” blade
This chainsaw cost me $299 at the Stihl shop and it was well worth it cut through a medium to small sized tree like butter
The sound was medium loud but nothing out of the ordinary. Very light weight and easy to use. Uses 2 stroke which is handy considering I have the hedge trimmer and blower all using the same fuel.
For information: The fuel shouldn’t be left in the machines for any longer than 6 weeks because it will go stale and damage the equipment
Remember you must have a chainsaw license to use a chainsaw
Features about this chainsaw which is from STIHL
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
Compensator
This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the quantity of air passing through the air filter. 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.QuickStop Chain Brake
QuickStop Chain Brake
Die QuickStop-Kettenbremse ist ein Schutzmechanismus beim Umgang mit Motorsägen. Die Kettenbremse wird über den vorderen Handschutz betätigt und bringt die Sägekette in Bruchteilen von Sekunden zum Stillstand. Bei ausreichend starkem Rückschlag löst die Quickstopp-Kettenbremse automatisch aus.Single-lever master control
