Easy to Start
The starting process is perfect, with no need for a start position, and easy access to the purger.
The Stihl MS500i Petrol Chainsaw (63cm/25") is an innovative new chainsaw with an electronically controlled fuel injection. It is the first ever chainsaw with STIHL Injection Technology. The best power-to-weight ratio on the market, and the simplest operation. Ideally suited for the harvesting and processing of large timber.
All thanks to its unique lightweight design and outstanding acceleration. It has a new bumper spikes, HD2 filter, captive nut on the sprocket cover for easy chain change, controlled-delivery oil pump, and tool-free fuel cap for safe and easy filling with fuels and lubricants. The STIHL ElastoStart reduces the shock caused by the compression of the engine during starting. The compression shock is taken away from the users joints and muscles through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.
The STIHL injection technology enables the MS 500i to achieve extremely high performance with extraordinarily low displacement and low weight. In addition to the external temperature sensor, this model has also a pressure and internal temperature sensor in its engine. This measures the environmental pressure on start-up, and during operation. It also checks the engine temperature and pressure in the crankcase. So, if you're looking for a powerful petrol chainsaw, look no further than the Stihl MS500i.
