The STIHL MS 172 petrol chainsaw offers an ideal combination of affordability and performance, perfect for homeowners seeking a cost-effective solution for tasks like cutting firewood or felling small trees. Boasting greater power and torque than the MS 162, the MS 172 efficiently manages a larger guide bar to tackle more demanding jobs.
Enjoy the robust capabilities of the STIHL 2-MIX engine, renowned for its remarkable cutting power while maintaining fuel efficiency. With a 14-inch guide bar and a 3/8" P saw chain, the MS 172 excels in delivering superior cutting performance, ensuring precise cuts with its narrow kerf. The anti-vibration system is designed to dramatically reduce vibration levels, allowing for a more comfortable and less tiring experience during operation.
The straightforward single-lever control, coupled with a handy combi-lever, facilitates quick and easy restarts, keeping work interruptions to a minimum. Monitoring fuel and oil levels is a breeze with the clear fuel and oil tanks, allowing for timely refuelling and oil top-ups without second-guessing. Chain adjustments are simple with the side-mounted chain tensioning mechanism.
The MS 172 comes with a domestic 2-year warranty and you'll have access to ongoing service and support from your local STIHL SHOP.
