Description
The STIHL MS 271 FARM BOSS® chainsaw is a hard-working gas chainsaw for farms, ranches and property owners. Its efficient engine delivers 20% longer run times between refuelings while cutting exhaust emissions in half compared to the previous model, and STIHL’s pre-separation air filtration lets your air filter last up to five times longer – all in a compact, ergonomic design.
Key Features
- Low-emission engine: saves fuel and operating costs without sacrificing power.
- Pre-separation air filtration: centrifugal force ejects heavy dirt before it reaches the filter, so you clean it less often.
- Anti-vibration system: reduces operator fatigue.
- Master Control Lever™: one lever for choke, starting throttle lock and on/off.
- Side-access chain tensioner for convenient chain adjustment.
- Toolless fuel and oil caps with retainers.
- Bumper spikes for better control and easier cutting.

- High-tech polymer housings: lightweight, impact- and corrosion-resistant.
- Made in America of U.S. and global materials.
