STIHL MS500i Features

Stihl has always been innovative and forward thinking – ever since introducing to market the first ever electric chainsaw in the 1920’s, and the MS500i is no exception to this trend. Starting the saw is an incredibly simple process. There isn’t a start switch – when cold starting the machine, press the primer, pull the cord and away you go! Press the stop switch to turn off the chainsaw. STIHL MS500iIt contains a long life HD2 filter through which clean air is pulled into the combustion chamber and precision mixed with the fuel due to the sensor controlled fuel mixing process. When starting internal combustion engines, jerky stresses can occur because of the combustion pressure. The ‘Elasto start’ damping element will absorb and release appropriate force, dependent upon the pattern of compression. This will give a smooth and easy start.

STIHL MS500i

The HD2 filter is manufactured from PET material, will protect against fine dust particles being taken in. It’s ‘hermetic’ seal will greatly increase the service life of the engine by reducing wear.

When ‘plunge cutting’ control and safety are paramount, Stihl have added marking to the fan housing to assist when performing plunge cuts.

STIHL MS500i

Higher volumes of oil are delivered thanks to Stihl’s new Emaic oil pump system. When working in a dusty environment on windy days or when operating with a long guide-bar this system can prove invaluable.

Adjustments have been made to the length of the spikes to take into account radial contours of trees. The saw will really bite into the timber when cutting or felling.
