Mountfield MCS 40 Li: 40V Cordless Brushless 30cm (12") Chainsaw (Bare Tool)

The Mountfield MCS 40 Li brings effortless wood cutting, cable-free mobility, and lightweight convenience straight to your domestic logging routine. Purpose-built for residential users who find traditional petrol chainsaws heavy, loud, or difficult to pull-start, this battery-powered unit completely transforms yard maintenance. Weighing only 4kg, it drastically minimizes physical strain on your arms and back, letting you comfortably slice through firewood logs, prune storm-damaged branches, and clear out overgrown garden saplings without any restrictive extension cords or toxic fuel emissions.

High-Torque Brushless Motor & Premium Oregon Cutting Gear

  • Advanced Brushless Motor Technology: Engineered for absolute energy efficiency, high torque delivery, and a long, maintenance-free service life. By eliminating internal carbon brushes, the motor stays cooler under load, maximizing your battery runtimes through thick wood.
  • Premium 30cm (12") Oregon Bar & Chain: Experience clean, smooth, and precise slicing performance. Fitted with a robust Oregon full-complement, full-chisel chain running over a 12-inch guide bar, this saw zips through hardwood logs quickly while drastically reducing binding or stalling tendencies.
  • Continuous Automatic Chain Oiling: Keep your cutting gear tracking smoothly at peak performance. The integrated automatic oil pump constantly bathes the high-velocity bar and chain, while the translucent fluid reservoir lets you monitor your oil levels at a glance.

Tool-Free Side Tensioning & Comprehensive Safety Networks

  • Tool-Less Chain Quick Tensioning: Adjust your cutting setup safely on the fly without fumbling for specialized spanners or screwdrivers. The intuitive mechanical side dial allows you to rapidly dial in optimum chain tension or secure the bar back down by hand in seconds.
  • Dual Mechanical & Electronic Braking: Prioritize operator safety across all working angles. The comprehensive safety layout features an instant-acting mechanical chain brake guard, an operator presence control trigger, and a safety electronic motor brake to halt the chain in a fraction of a second.
  • Ergonomic Multi-Grip Control Cockpit: Designed to feel completely natural during active steering. The comfortable wrap-around front handle allows for comfortable horizontal and vertical pivoting, providing exceptional leverage and balance while keeping hand-arm vibrations remarkably low.

The Mountfield 40V Shared Freedom Power System

As a bare tool configuration, the MCS 40 Li offers superb cost efficiency for gardeners looking to expand their active cordless tool collection. By utilizing a single shared-energy network, the interchangeable 40V lithium-ion battery cartridge slides seamlessly into a whole fleet of matching Mountfield 40V cordless garden machinery—saving you valuable workshop storage space and eliminating the need to buy duplicate batteries and chargers for every tool.

Mountfield

Mountfield have been one of the UK's best selling lawn mower brands since the 1960s. They’ve built a reputation for quality and reliability through their wide range of products. Mountfield first began manufacturing rotary lawn mowers in 1962 at their premises in Maidenhead, Berkshire. Despite the fact that today’s machines have very little resemblance to their ancestors, Mountfield garden machinery has always been made with high quality and good value for money in mind.

Mountfield aim to make gardening as pleasurable an experience as possible, and manufacture their products accordingly. Over the years they have continually developed their products to ensure they are both meeting and out-performing consumer expectations. Today they don’t just specialise in manufacturing of lawn mowers. They have a whole range of products to ensure that many gardening needs are met efficiently, from ride on mowers, to multi-tools and garden shredders.

Mountfield's lawn mower range is extensive. With hand pushed models, self propelled models, petrol, electric and cordless, there is something for just about everyone.

They produce 2 types of ride on mower; Lawn riders which are small enough to fit through a garden gate and a perfect choice for small to medium sized lawns and garden tractors for larger lawns. Mountfield’s hand-held range of garden machinery includes grass trimmers and brush cutters, hedge trimmers, leaf blowers, and chainsaws. They are all designed to be lightweight and easy to use. They are suitable for both domestic and professional users.

Mountfield have recently released their Freedom 48 range of cordless garden machinery. Once you have purchased a battery and a charger, you can use them for any of the product in the range as they all use the same battery.
