STIHL MS 291 Petrol Chainsaw
The STIHL MS 291 Petrol Chainsaw is a dependable, high-performance all-round petrol chainsaw designed for demanding work in agriculture, farming, estate maintenance and serious firewood cutting. Built for users who need more durability and cutting performance than a typical homeowner saw, the MS 291 is a proven choice for regular heavy-duty ground work.
Powered by a 55.5cc STIHL 2-MIX engine, the STIHL MS 291 delivers a strong 2.8kW output while offering improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions compared to older non-2-MIX designs. It combines robust cutting ability with user-friendly features such as STIHL’s long-life air filter system, anti-vibration technology and side-mounted chain tensioning, making it a practical and reliable work saw for day-to-day use. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}
For farmers, landscapers, landowners and professional users wanting a STIHL chainsaw that offers genuine work-ready performance without stepping into full pro forestry saw territory, the MS 291 is an excellent fit.
Key Features
- Powerful 55.5cc STIHL 2-MIX engine
- 2.8kW power output for demanding cutting tasks
- Ideal for firewood, estate maintenance and agricultural use
- Side-mounted chain tensioning for easy chain adjustment
- Long-life air filter system with pre-separation and HD2 filter
- Tool-free fuel and oil caps for quick refuelling
- STIHL anti-vibration system for improved comfort
- Four-channel technology for strong performance and efficient combustion
- Compensator carburettor system for reduced maintenance
Built for Agriculture, Firewood & Estate Work
The STIHL MS 291 is designed for users who need a saw capable of regular, practical cutting work without compromise. It is especially well suited to firewood processing, farm maintenance, construction timber work, landscaping and general property management.
Its combination of power, durability and manageable weight makes it a strong all-rounder for both professional and serious domestic users who need a petrol chainsaw they can rely on.
Long Filter Life & Reduced Maintenance
One of the standout features of the MS 291 is STIHL’s long-life air filter system, which combines pre-separation routing and an HD2 filter to keep both coarse and fine dust away from the engine. This helps extend filter service intervals and supports longer engine life in dusty or demanding working conditions. The integrated compensator also helps maintain engine performance as the filter gradually becomes dirty, reducing the need for constant maintenance. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
Comfortable Everyday Use
The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce vibration transfer into the handles, improving comfort and reducing fatigue during longer cutting sessions. This makes the saw more pleasant to use when processing larger volumes of timber or carrying out repeated work throughout the day. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
Efficient 2-MIX Engine Performance
The STIHL 2-MIX engine and four-channel combustion technology are designed to deliver strong cutting performance while using less fuel and producing fewer emissions than older conventional 2-stroke engines. This helps lower running costs while maintaining the power needed for serious cutting work. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}
