STIHL's MS231C-BE chainsaw fits into STIHL's range towards the top of their ‘occasional use’ range. The MS231C-BE has a 42.6cc engine which makes it ideal for more demanding homeowners and occasional commercial users such as farmers, landscape contractors and construction workers. Ideal for cutting firewood, felling small trees and working with construction wood, the STIHL MS231C-BE is packed with features which include the impressive ErgoStart system. ErgoStart is a spring assisted starting system which makes the MS231C-BE exceptionally easy to start. We would always urge caution when storing a chainsaw to ensure that it is kept out of reach of children but we urge extra caution on saws fitted with ErgoStart because of the ease with which these saws can be started.

Just loosen the side case, adjust the chain tension with the adjuster wheel and re-tighten the side case.

Please note, cutting length will always be a little shorter than the bar length because of the way guide bars are measured. The difference between the guide bar length and cutting length varies by chainsaw model.
