STIHL MSA 80 C-B Cordless Chainsaw: Powerful and Lightweight Solution for Homeowners

The STIHL MSA 80 C-B cordless chainsaw is a robust addition to the AK System, offering homeowners a powerful tool for various tasks such as cutting firewood, pruning branches, woodworking, and felling small trees up to 25 cm in diameter. As the first in the AK System to feature a 14-inch guide bar, it boasts the best power-to-weight ratio in its range.

Key Features of the MSA 80 C-B

  • Enhanced Power Output: Equipped with a powerful brushless motor, the MSA 80 C-B delivers performance comparable to the MSA 160 chainsaw from the AP System and the MS 162 petrol-powered chainsaw. It offers 30% more power than the MSA 70 chainsaw while adding only 200 grams to its weight.

  • 14-Inch Guide Bar: The inclusion of a 14-inch (35 cm) guide bar enhances cutting capacity, making it suitable for a variety of applications around the home and garden.

Innovative Technologies for Enhanced Performance

  • Quick Chain Tensioning: This feature allows for tool-free chain adjustments. Simply turn the thumb wheel after releasing the sprocket cover to achieve the desired tension, ensuring optimal cutting performance.

  • Transparent Chain Oil Tank: The clear oil tank enables easy monitoring of oil levels, ensuring uninterrupted operation and preventing potential damage due to low lubrication.

User-Friendly Design Elements

  • Improved Ergo Lever: The enhanced ergonomic lever on the back handle provides greater comfort during use across different cutting angles, reducing user fatigue and increasing control.

  • Variable Trigger System: The trigger system allows for maximum control over the chain speed, facilitating precise work across different materials, around shrubs, or on woodworking projects.

Battery Performance and Run Time

The MSA 80 C-B is designed to be used exclusively with the AK 30 S battery:

  • AK 30 S Battery: Provides up to 35 minutes of operation on a full charge, offering sufficient run time for typical home and garden tasks.

Safety Precautions and Recommendations

To ensure safe operation of the MSA 80 C-B, adhere to the following guidelines:

  • Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including cut-retardant trousers, boots, gloves, and eye protection. For tasks above shoulder height, a helmet is recommended.

  • 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 MSA 80 C-B in optimal condition:

  • Regular Cleaning: After each use, remove the battery and clean the chainsaw with a soft, damp cloth. Always wear gloves during maintenance tasks.

  • Battery Care: Store batteries in a dry area, avoiding extreme temperatures. Do not use damp or wet batteries.

  • Proper Storage: Keep the chainsaw in a clean, dry place, out of reach of children.
