Description:

You aren't afraid to take on the largest, toughest, and most demanding jobs, and you need a powerful professional chainsaw you can rely on. For the toughest jobs, you can find the performance you need in the STIHL® MS 881 MAGNUM® chainsaw. With reduced exhaust emission engine technology, an IntelliCarb™ compensating carburetor, and up to a 41-inch guide bar length, the MS 881 MAGNUM® is the largest, most powerful chainsaw in the STIHL® lineup. Great fuel efficiency means you save both time and money. Another time-saving feature is the stop switch, which automatically returns to the run position after the engine is stopped, reducing the chance of flooding the engine when starting. There is no substitute for the most powerful production chainsaw currently on the market—the STIHL® MS 881 MAGNUM®.

Features:

• Largest, Most Powerful Saw – With its updated engine design and up to 41” guide bar length, the MS 881 is the largest, most powerful chainsaw in the STIHL® lineup.
• Greater Fuel Efficiency & Reduced Exhaust Emissions – The MS 881 MAGNUM® has the same power as the previous model while using less fuel and reducing exhaust emissions, saving time and money while also being better for the environment.
• Ematic™ Lubrication System – The Ematic™ guide bar, when used with STIHL OILOMATIC® saw chain, will provide proper lubrication and less oil consumption than conventional methods. The system works because two ramps, strategically placed in the guide bar rail, help contain the flow of oil and direct all lubrication to the sliding faces of the bar and chain links as well as the rivets and driver holes, which in turn can reduce bar oil consumption up to 50%.
• STIHL ElastoStart™ – The ElastoStart™ starter handle is an exclusive feature of STIHL®. It is a starting grip with a built-in shock absorber that helps reduce the effort when pulling on the starter cord. The ElastoStart™ starter grip noticeably reduces the sudden peak forces (compression) normally felt during cranking. The forces which occur at the grip after the first compression stroke are smoothed out.
• HD2 Air Filter – Washable filter with an extremely long service life, providing better engine protection and performance in dusty and dry conditions.
• IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor – Automatically adjusts the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted, maintaining correct RPM for optimal performance.
• STIHL Quickstop® – Chain brake designed to stop the chain within fractions of a second in certain kickback situations, either by operator activation or inertia.
• Efficient Stop Switch Technology – Automatically returns to the run position after stopping the engine, reducing the chance of flooding during startup.
• Easy Manual Carburetor Adjustment – Simplified carburetor design allows quick manual adjustments.
• Bumper Spikes – Improve control and prevent pull-in during cutting.
• Lightweight Sprocket Cover with Captive Bar Nuts – Streamlined maintenance with securely held nuts.
• Adjustable Automatic Oiler – Adjust lubrication for different bar lengths and cutting conditions.
• Decompression Valve – Vents compression for easier starting, automatically closing once the engine fires.
• Side-Access Chain Tensioner – Convenient chain adjustments with a bar wrench.
• Master Control Lever™ – Single-lever operation for choke, starting throttle lock, and on/off switch.
• Anti-Vibration System – Reduces operator fatigue for greater comfort.
• Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers – Easy open and close without tools.
• Throttle Trigger Lockout – Must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.
• Reduced-Emission Engine Technology—Caring for Nature – Meets or exceeds EPA and/or CARB emission standards.
