    Features

    The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.

    INCREASES SERVICE LIFE. The HD2 filter protects your power tool’s engine against even the finest dust, ensuring a longer service life and reduced wear. The filter made from PET material has up to 70% finer pores than fleece and polyamide filters, and is also oil- and water-repellent. This also makes it easier to clean the filter. When needed, the filter cartridge can be easily replaced without tools.
    HD2-FILTER
    EFFORTLESS START-UP. The decompression valve makes it easier to start your power tool. When starting, you can allow some of the compressed mixture to escape from the cylinder by opening the valve. This protects the start-up system and reduces the amount of force required on the starter cord.
    MANUAL DECOMPRESSION
    SIMPLIFIED OPERATION. Only one start position is required on the combi lever. Thanks to the stop function, once the machine is turned off the control lever immediately moves back into the operating position. This allows a warm machine to be restarted immediately.
    COMBI LEVER WITH STOP FUNCTION
    RELIABLE WORK WITH BEST PERFORMANCE. With the STIHL M-Tronic, you have the best performance from your implement right from the start. The fully electronic engine management regulates the ignition point and fuel metering in every work situation, taking into account external conditions such as temperature, altitude and fuel quality.
    STIHL M-TRONIC
    Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
    STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM
    The STIHL 2-MIX engine is both powerful and economical. Separating the exhaust emissions from the unburnt gas minimises scavenging losses, and therefore increases the power output while reducing consumption.<br /><br />The two-stroke engine with STIHL 2-MIX technology saves up to 20% of fuel and reduces emissions by up to 70% compared to STIHL 2-stroke engines of the same performance class without 2-MIX technology.

    REDUCED MAINTENANCE. The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, which uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain virtually constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance. This means that you can work for a long time without maintenance.
    COMPENSATOR
    PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS The nuts are attached to the sprocket cover in a captive manner. This makes it impossible for the nuts to fall off and get lost when the cover is removed.
    CAPTIVE NUTS
    OIL CONSUMPTION BASED ON NEED. The controlled-delivery oil pump reduces your chainsaw’s oil consumption by up to 50%. To use it, simply select the E position. For very long cutting attachments or very dry wood, an additional oil volume can be set by the user.
    CONTROLLED-DELIVERY OIL PUMP
    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.
    SIDE-MOUNTED CHAIN TENSIONING
    REDUCES OIL CONSUMPTION. The STIHL Ematic system comprises a STIHL Ematic or Ematic S guide bar, a STIHL Oilomatic saw chain and a controlled-delivery oil pump. It ensures that the chain oil gets to where it is needed for lubrication. This allows you to reduce oil consumption by up to 50%. If you often work in dusty conditions or if you use long guide bars, you can quickly and easily increase the oil quantity at any time with the new oil pump system.
    STIHL EMATIC SYSTEM
    QUICK AND EASY TO USE. With tool-free fuel cap, you can open and close oil and fuel tanks in just a few simple steps, thanks to a bayonet closure.
    TOOL-FREE FUEL CAP FOR OIL AND FUEL TANKS

    Fuel-efficient chainsaw was designed for the demanding professional

    The STIHL MS 661 C-M professional chainsaw is a real powerhouse, offering strong and consistent performance. It combines cutting-edge technology with an optimum power-to-weight ratio of 1.4 kg/kW and is ideal for particularly tough and demanding forestry applications. Even thick wood can be processed effectively and quickly using this petrol chainsaw.

    The chainsaw is powered by a 5.4 kW (7.3 hp) STIHL 2-MIX engine, which ensures a consistently high performance thanks to STIHL M-Tronic. The controlled-delivery oil pump reliably supplies the cutting attachment with oil and enables the use of long and very long cutting attachments.

    The STIHL MS 661 C-M petrol chainsaw is also used as a competition saw in the STIHL TIMBERSPORTS® series. Other features of the STIHL MS 661 C-M chainsaw:

    • the HD2 air filter removes even the finest dust from the air, and is easy to clean using STIHL VarioClean. In a video guide, we demonstrate the cleaning process.
    • The STIHL anti-vibration system enables you to work comfortably and protects your muscles and joints.

    Tool-free fuel caps save you time and effort when filling the chainsaw.
