The STIHL MS 171 is part of the lightweight generation of STIHL chainsaws with reduced – emission technology—a significant benefit for users because it saves fuel even as it cuts exhaust emissions. The MS 171 also has the STIHL pre-separation air filter, which can extend filter life up to five times over previous models.
Features:

Important Safety Information
- The occurrence called "kickback" can cause serious or fatal injury. Always read the instruction manual carefully before using your saw. Stihl uses a green and yellow color-coding system to help you select a powerhead, bar and chain combination that complies with the kickback requirements of ANSI Standard B175.1 (gasoline-powered saws) and §30 of UL 1662/ ANSI Standard B175.1 (electric chainsaws)
- Stihl recommends the use of green reduced kickback bars and green low kickback chains on all Stihl chainsaws
