Product information & specifications
STIHL MS 151 C-E Petrol Chainsaw – Ultralight Performance for Precision Work
The STIHL MS 151 C-E is the lightest back-handle chainsaw in STIHL's range, purpose-built for pruning, carving, hedge-laying, and fine garden tasks. With significant power upgrades, starting ease, and featherweight handling, it's a cut above for accuracy and style.
Key Features
- Enhanced 2-MIX Engine (23.6 cm³, 1.1 kW / 1.5 hp) – New piston, cylinder & exhaust deliver up to 1.05 kW, 15% more torque and improved low emissions.
- Lightweight Design – Just 2.6 kg (without bar & chain), making it ideal for precise, fatigue-free work.
- ErgoStart (E) & Manual Fuel Pump – Smooth, effortless starts with minimal pull effort required.
- Side-Mounted Chain Tensioning – Quickly adjust the chain—no tools needed, touch-free.
- Anti-Vibration System – Steel spring dampers reduce vibration for comfortable extended use.
- Service-Friendly Air Filter Cover – Opens in one movement without tools—simplifying maintenance.
- Tool-Free Fuel & Oil Caps – Bayonet-style caps make refuelling quick and easy.
Why Choose the MS 151 C-E?
As the lightest back-handle chainsaw in STIHL's range at just 2.6kg, the MS 151 C-E is genuinely suited to precision work — carving, hedge-laying and fine pruning — where a heavier saw would be tiring or imprecise to control one-handed. The upgraded 2-MIX engine gives 15% more torque than the outgoing model, and ErgoStart with the manual fuel pump makes for effortless starting on a saw you'll likely be picking up and putting down repeatedly through the day.
