Zero emissions mean the Stihl MSA 140 C-BQ can be in enclosed environments.

Felling small trees, sectioning logs and even sculpting wood has never been so easy since the introduction of the MSA140 C-BQ. This cordless chainsaw from Stihl can be operated anywhere at any time, indoors or outdoors. How you may ask?

Secondly, with no combustion engine means there are no fumes. So you can work in enclosed areas such as a warehouse or log cabin without the worry of emissions.

Thirdly, the Stihl electric motor that powers the MSA 140 C-BQ is extremely quiet, therefore, you can work in noise-sensitive areas or unsociable hours. The motor is also very efficient and requires less maintenance compared to petrol models.

Finally, electrically powered motors do not vibrate as much as an engine powered power tools, meaning you can use the machine for longer without hand fatigue.

Safety and comfort in the design

Compared to a petrol chainsaw, the MSA140C-BQ offers huge advantages being cordless powered but still operates as a professional chainsaw should.

For example, you still get to use a ¼ P low profile chain to achieve that precise and smooth finish, whilst reducing chain chatter. There’s also a side chain tensioner, and a handguard to promote safety. And it still delivers the same level of high power as some similar sized chainsaws from the brand.

Additionally, this machine also features a QuickStop Super Chain Brake so the chain stops immediately when the user let’s go of the rear handle, throttle or when the front guard is activated. As a consequence, when there be a strong kick-back the chain shuts off automatically, offering further protection.
