A Reliable Petrol Chainsaw for Homeowners

The STIHL MS 172 is an excellent choice for homeowners who need more cutting power than a small pruning saw but still want a chainsaw that is comfortable and straightforward to operate.

Its narrow-kerf 3/8-inch Picco saw chain provides efficient cutting performance, while the 14-inch guide bar offers a practical balance between cutting capacity and manoeuvrability.

Typical applications include:

  • Cutting logs and firewood
  • Pruning heavy branches
  • Cutting fallen trees
  • Felling small trees
  • General garden and property maintenance
  • Preparing timber for storage

STIHL 2-MIX Engine

The MS 172 is powered by a 31.8 cm³ STIHL 2-MIX petrol engine producing 1.4 kW of power.

STIHL 2-MIX technology is designed to provide strong cutting performance while using fuel efficiently. The engine also meets current EU emissions requirements, making it a modern replacement for older entry-level STIHL chainsaws.

Comfortable Anti-Vibration System

The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce the level of engine and cutting vibration transferred through the handles.

This makes the chainsaw more comfortable to control and helps reduce fatigue when cutting multiple logs or working for longer periods.

Simple Single-Lever Operation

The MS 172 features a practical combi lever that controls the main operating functions of the chainsaw.

After the engine is switched off, the control automatically returns to the operating position. This makes restarting a warm chainsaw quicker and more straightforward.

Side-Mounted Chain Tensioning

The side-mounted chain tensioner allows the chain to be adjusted conveniently from the side of the chainsaw.

This keeps your hands away from the sharp cutting chain while making regular chain adjustments quicker and safer.

Transparent Fuel and Chain-Oil Tanks

The transparent tank design allows you to check the fuel and chain-oil levels without opening the tanks.

You can quickly see when the chainsaw requires more fuel or chain oil, helping to prevent interruptions while working.

STIHL Ematic Chain Lubrication

The STIHL Ematic lubrication system directs chain oil to the areas of the guide bar and chain where it is required.

Correct chain lubrication helps reduce friction, protects the cutting components and supports a longer working life for the guide bar and saw chain.
