STIHL MS400.1 20" Petrol Chainsaw

The redesigned STIHL MS 400.1 stands at the forefront of modern chainsaws, setting an exceptional benchmark in the 60cc class. Developed specifically for professionals such as tree surgeons, landscapers and gardening enthusiasts, this chainsaw is built with the challenging demands of felling, delimbing and wood preparation in mind. Its superior power-to-weight ratio ensures an impressive cutting performance while minimising operator fatigue.

Experience enhanced performance with a robust 3.9 kW output and 4.3 Nm of torque which means the chainsaw is less sensitive to pressure changes when tackling large timber. The advanced M-Tronic technology guarantees a rapid start-up and fast acceleration, ensuring you can maintain momentum on every job. This makes the MS 400.1 a reliable partner whether you are managing a professional landscaping project or carrying out meticulous home gardening tasks.

Engineered with an improved rear handle and a widened gripping area, this chainsaw has been thoughtfully designed to reduce operator fatigue during prolonged use. The new geometry and compact design allow for excellent control and precision, providing a secure and comfortable grip, even during intensive cutting sessions. Such attention to ergonomic detail is ideal for those working long hours on demanding garden maintenance or commercial ground care projects.

Built to endure rigorous use, the incorporation of a larger magnesium flywheel and improved muffling system keeps the engine operating at optimal temperatures. The inclusion of the innovative HD2 filter not only extends the engines life by effectively trapping fine dust, but also minimises maintenance intervals a crucial feature when working in challenging outdoor environments.

This chainsaw represents the perfect synergy of power, precision and endurance. Whether youre a dedicated professional or a keen garden user, the STIHL MS 400.1 delivers reliable performance tailored to the rigorous demands of your work, making it a trusted tool in every outdoor setting.

FOR MORE PLEASANT WORK. Vibrations can occur when you put your tools through their paces, and these are particularly noticeable in the grip area. The buffer and spring elements of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body. The result is that your tool is more comfortable to hold and your work is much less tiring.

CAPTIVE NUTS. When changing the cutting attachment, you will not risk losing the nuts on the sprocket.

EFFORTLESS START-UP. The decompression valve makes it easier to start your tool. When starting, you can allow some of the compressed mixture to escape from the cylinder by opening the valve. This protects the start-up system and reduces the amount of force required on the starter cord.

REDUCES OIL CONSUMPTION. The STIHL Ematic system comprises a STIHL Ematic or Ematic S guide bar, a STIHL Oilomatic saw chain and a controlled-delivery oil pump. It ensures that the chain oil gets to where it is needed for lubrication. This allows you to reduce oil consumption by up to 50%. If you often work in dusty conditions or if you use long guide bars, you can quickly and easily increase the oil quantity at any time with the new oil pump system.

SIMPLIFIED OPERATION. Only one start position is required on the combi lever. Thanks to the stop function, once the machine is turned off the control lever immediately moves back into the operating position. This allows a warm machine to be restarted immediately.

REDUCED MAINTENANCE. The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, which uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain virtually constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance. This means that you can work for a long time without maintenance.

HD2 FILTER. The HD2 filter is made from polyethylene filter material with up to 70% finer pores than fleece and polyamide filters to trap even very fine dust. In addition, it is oil and water-repellent and thus very easy to clean. The PET-covered filter cartridge with quick-release lock enables the filter to be assembled and disassembled in next to no time, without using tools.

EXTENDED FILTER SERVICE LIFE. Pre-separation routing removes coarse, larger particles from the airstream before they can reach the actual filter. The HD2 filter keeps even fine dust away from the engine, ensuring a long engine service life, long cleaning intervals and easy maintenance of your chainsaw. When we refer to a long-life air filter system in chainsaws, this exclusively describes models that have pre-separation routing and an HD2 filter. With this system, you benefit from a significantly longer filter service life compared to conventional air filter systems.

VARIABLE DISPLACEMENT OIL PUMP. Allows a precise, demand-based delivery of oil. It's possible to reduce oil production by up to 50% in the E position. For very long cutting attachments or very dry wood, an additional volume of oil can be added by the user. similar to illustration.

HIGHLY POWER-EFFICIENT. With the STIHL 2-MIX engine, you can reduce exhaust emissions and fuel consumption, and therefore operating costs. This 2-stroke engine is low-maintenance and uses fuel efficiently even at high power levels. Use a mixture of petrol and engine oil as fuel. The STIHL 2-MIX engine complies with the strict EU Stage V emissions directive.

RELIABLE WORK WITH THE BEST PERFORMANCE. With STIHL M-Tronic, you’ll have the best performance from your work tool from the outset. Fully electronic engine management regulates the ignition timing and fuel metering in all work situations, taking into account external conditions such as temperature, altitude and fuel quality.

QUICK AND EASY TO USE. With tool-free fuel cap, you can open and close oil and fuel tanks in just a few simple steps, thanks to a bayonet closure.
