The MSA 220 TC-O is STIHL’s most powerful cordless top-handle chainsaw. This professional arborist saw is ideal for removing pieces of trunk, crown correction, or removing dead wood and has exceptional cutting performance - the highest of all STIHL top-handle chainsaws.
The TC-O model features an oil sensor on an LED display which gives the user a warning when the chain oil level is low. It also has an electronic trigger system with an unlock button for simple saw activation, which leads to easy operation and the LED display on the top handle also shows information on the operating status of the chainsaw, as well as the chain brake position. The MSA 220 TC-O has excellent power-to-weight ratio, making it comfortable to use over long periods of time. It is compact and perfectly balanced in its design – when used with the AP 300 S battery, it counterbalances the guide bar for effortless control and reduced wrist strain.
With an easy-to-clean air filter for long service life and optimum engine cooling, excellent cutting performance, side-mounted chain tensioning, tool-free oil tank cap, captive nut on the sprocket cover. Fitted as standard with the 1.3mm 3/8” P PS3 saw chain and Light P04 guide bar for increased performance.
Like most AP System tools, the MSA 220 TC-O is IPX4 rated meaning it can be used in all types of weather conditions. With a fully charged AP 300 S battery, the MSA 220 TC-O has a working time of up to 29 minutes. The AP 300 S battery provides the best balance to weight ratio for the MSA 220 TC-O. For a longer working time of 34 minutes, you can use the AP 500 S battery - although this will affect the balance.
Must be used with AP 300 S or AP 500 S battery for full performance.
NOTE: For purchase by certified arborists only.
Features
Removable battery for easy cleaning
The battery can be easily removed for cleaning.
Fold-out hook
The fold-out hook serves as a carrying rope attachment for lowering the arborist saw and for security. When it is pushed in, the hook doesn't get in the way of your work or when it's in storage.
Fleece filter
The fleece filter in our new MSA 300 guarantees consistent performance – even in extreme conditions. Its extraordinarily finepored filter material keeps even very fine dust and dirt away from the power electronics and electric motor. To clean it, remove the fleece filter and spray it with STIHL Varioclean, briefly leaving it to work before rinsing out with warm water and letting the filter dry. Then it is ready to use again
Intuitive controls and a bright LED display
The MSA 300 features intuitive controls and a bright LED display. Three speed settings limit the chain speed to 20,24 or 30 m/s, meaning the user can maximise battery life when completing less intensive tasks such as snedding or brashing. Status of the chain brake and temperature warnings are also displayed in red.
Side-mounted chain tensioning
FOR SIMPLE AND SECURE RE-TENSIONING. Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover.
Captive nuts
When changing the cutting attachment, you will not risk losing the nuts on the sprocket.
