The new STIHL MSA 300 is the most powerful cordless chainsaw in the AP System. Suitable for felling, cross-cutting, snedding and processing, the MSA 300 offers forestry professionals, arborists and landscapers plenty of power for taking on larger cutting tasks. 

Powered by the new AP 500 S battery, the MSA 300 is recommended with a 16” Light 04 guide bar and .325” RS Pro chain for fast cutting. The recommended cutting attachments are identical to the popular MS 261 C-M, with a maximum recommended guide bar length of 18”.   

The MSA 300 is compact, well balanced and features STIHL’s anti-vibration system for comfortable working over long durations. Other features include a captive nut on the sprocket cover, an adjustable oil pump, durable die-cast magnesium components and an air filter to aid effective air cooling.  

Also featured in this model is an LED digital display for active user notifications, showing the operating mode in use, the status of the chain brake position, the on/off status and even temperature warnings to prevent overheating. 

Three operating modes limit the maximum chain speed, helping to match the performance to the task at hand and extend the battery run-time. Eco mode limits the chain speed to 20 m/s and is ideal for cutting smaller logs, while the mid setting has a chain speed of 24 m/s suitable for felling cuts. The highest performing mode features fast acceleration and a 30 m/s chain speed best suited to snedding.

The MSA 300 is compatible with the STIHL Smart Connector 2 A, plugging directly into the control module to collect valuable data such as run-time and operating speed history. This data syncs to the user's smartphone and informs the user exactly when maintenance tasks should be completed, improving efficiency and helping to reduce machine downtime.
