MS 212 C-BE Petrol Chainsaw: our most powerful petrol chainsaw for processing wood at home

The STIHL MS 212 C-BE petrol chainsaw is our most powerful petrol chainsaw for homeowners. Whether you are cutting firewood, pruning branches or felling small trees, the MS 212 C-BE packs all the power you need to tackle the toughest maintenance jobs.

Powered by a STIHL 2-MIX engine, the MS 212 C-BE has great cutting performance and low fuel consumption. It’s fitted with metal bumper spikes, a 3/8″ P saw chain which has high cutting performance thanks to the narrow kerf and available with either a 14” or 16” guide bar. The MS 212 C-BE chainsaw also has Quick Chain Tensioning which makes re-tensioning the saw chain much easier. The STIHL anti-vibration system reduces transmission of vibrations to the handle, which relieves strain on your muscles and joints. The MS 212 C-BE has single-lever operation and is effortless to restart after interruptions thanks to the combi-lever and ErgoStart, which makes restarting the machine easier and more reliable. It’s also fitted with a transparent fuel and oil tank, so you can clearly see when the chainsaw needs a fuel or oil top up, and a primer bulb for reducing the number of starting pulls needed.

Instruction is necessary to recognize or assess the dangers of a chainsaw. Please wear protective clothing and equipment.
