The STIHL MSA 70 C-B is a nimble, efficient cordless chainsaw ideal for domestic landscaping. Powered by the 36V AK System with a lightweight 12" guide bar, it balances portability with genuine cutting performance — up to 45 minutes of runtime with the AK 30 battery.
It's in stock at Gustharts as an authorised STIHL dealer. Supplied as body only with the 12" guide bar and ¼" PM3 chain — battery and charger sold separately or available in kit options.
A brushless EC motor delivers compact, low-maintenance, energy-efficient operation, with 25% improved cutting performance versus the MSA 60 C-B. Quick Chain Tensioning gives tool-free, side-mounted adjustment, and a transparent oil tank lets you check bar oil at a glance. The soft-touch Ergo lever and soft-grip handle stay comfortable even when wet, and the QuickStop Super chain brake stops the chain automatically via inertia or manual activation. Whisper-quiet, low-vibration operation suits early mornings or noise-sensitive areas.
