MSA 80 C-B Cordless Chainsaw (Power Unit) by STIHL
CORDLESS CHAINSAW FOR DOMESTIC USERS, WITH A 35 CM / 14" BAR LENGTH
STIHL MSA 80 C-B: 36V Cordless Chainsaw (AK System - Tool Only)
The STIHL MSA 80 C-B is a powerful yet lightweight cordless chainsaw engineered for domestic woodcare, pruning, and preparing firewood. Positioned as a high-performance model within the AK System, it offers significantly more cutting power than entry-level cordless saws. This makes it an ideal, emission-free alternative to petrol models, specifically optimized for use in noise-sensitive residential areas.
This version is supplied as a bare tool (shell only), allowing users to utilize their existing STIHL AK batteries and chargers. With its 12" (30cm) guide bar and high-precision saw chain, the MSA 80 C-B balances professional-grade cutting quality with effortless, tool-free maintenance.

High-Precision PM3 Chain: Equipped with a 1/4" Picco Micro 3 (PM3) saw chain, designed for smooth, clean, and efficient cuts with minimal vibration—perfect for both logs and delicate pruning.
-
Energy-Efficient EC Motor: The brushless motor is maintenance-free and intelligently optimizes battery runtime by delivering consistent torque and high chain speeds.
-
Intelligent Derating Function: To protect the tool's lifespan, the motor automatically reduces power if it begins to overheat or when the battery is nearly depleted, allowing you to finish your current cut safely.
-
Quiet Operation: Operates at a significantly lower decibel level than petrol saws, ensuring a more pleasant environment for both the operator and neighbors.
User-Friendly Features

STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning (B): Features a tool-free adjusting wheel that allows you to tension the chain in seconds. Simply loosen the sprocket cover wing nut and turn the thumbwheel to maintain optimal tension.

Transparent Oil Tank: A clear inspection window allows for a quick visual check of the chain lubricant level, preventing unnecessary wear on the bar and chain.
