Stihl petrol chainsaw MS 500i with electronically controlled injection

• first chainsaw with electronic fuel injection STIHL Injection
• best power-to-weight ratio on the market
• ideally suited for heavy timber harvesting and processing thanks to its lightweight design and excellent acceleration
• STIHL Injection: The electronic injection control unit continuously calculates the correct fuel supply and the ideal ignition timing, with injection taking place directly into the crankcase via the injection valve. Sensors measure air pressure, internal and external temperatures and transmit the information to the control unit; the control unit can then use the determined values to optimally determine the fuel quantity and ignition timing. This means that this unit offers more power than engines without injection with a comparable weight and installation space.
• with anti-vibration system and optimized claw stop
• HD2 filter with very good filtering effect
• Captive nuts on the sprocket cover and tool-free filter cover
• adjustable high-performance oil pump for high delivery capacity
• Lateral chain tensioning - the tensioning screw is operated laterally through the chain wheel cover; this prevents hand contact with the sharp saw chain and the tips of the claw stop
• with decompression valve, 2-MIX engine and STIHL Elasto Start
• with tool-free tank caps for easy and safe filling with operating fluids
