STIHL MS 151 TC-E Petrol Chainsaw | 1/4″ PM3 Cutting Attachment 25 cm
Extremely light STIHL petrol arborist chainsaw with 25 cm PM3 cutting attachment for precise work in the crown. With STIHL ErgoStart and weighing just 2.6 kg.
Product description
The STIHL MS 151 TC-E is a particularly light petrol chainsaw for professional tree care. Weighing just 2.6 kg, it supports precise, controlled and low-fatigue work when removing deadwood, crown pruning or removing epicormic growth and suckers. Thanks to its compact top-handle design, this arborist saw is ideal for use in confined spaces.
Common problems
For fine tree care work, conventional, heavier chainsaws are often a hindrance for these reasons:
- Excessive weight quickly tires the user during longer, delicate work in the tree.
- Coarse cutting attachments make precise cuts on thin branches and shoots difficult.
- Strenuous starting costs energy and time when frequently changing position in the crown.
Solution
The STIHL MS 151 TC-E tackles this with a weight of just 2.6 kg for low-fatigue working and the fine 1/4″ PM3 saw chain for precise cuts in thin material. STIHL ErgoStart and the manual fuel pump also reduce the effort needed to start.
