Key Features of the MS 151 C-E

• Enhanced 2-MIX Engine: The MS 151 C-E is equipped with a new 2-MIX engine, comprising a redesigned cylinder, piston, and exhaust system. These enhancements result in a power output of up to 1.05 kW and a 15% increase in torque to 1.1 Nm, providing efficient performance for demanding tasks.

Innovative Technologies for Enhanced Performance

• STIHL ErgoStart (E): The ErgoStart system simplifies the starting process, requiring minimal effort to start the chainsaw, which is particularly beneficial during frequent stops and starts.

• Manual Fuel Pump (Purger): The manual fuel pump reduces the number of strokes needed to start the tool, making the start-up process quicker and easier, especially after longer breaks in operation. To use it, actuate the pump several times before starting. This will ensure that there is enough petrol in the carburettor when starting.

• Proper Training: Familiarize yourself with the chainsaw’s operation by thoroughly reading the instruction manual. If uncertain, consult a STIHL Approved Dealer for guidance.

• Safe Usage Practices: Avoid using the chainsaw on ladders and refrain from operating it in trees without appropriate qualifications.

Maintenance Tips for Longevity

To maintain the MS 151 C-E in optimal condition:

• Regular Cleaning: After each use, clean the chainsaw thoroughly, removing any debris to prevent build-up and ensure smooth operation.

• Chain Maintenance: Regularly check the chain tension and sharpness, adjusting and sharpening as necessary to maintain cutting efficiency.
