STIHL MSA 300 C-O Battery Chainsaw | 3 Bar Sizes | AP 500 S / ALLPRO | Forestry
STIHL MSA 300 C-O Battery Chainsaw | Available in 16", 18" and 20" Bar
The STIHL MSA 300 C-O is a professional battery-powered chainsaw designed for forestry, municipal operations, horticulture, agriculture, and tree maintenance. It handles felling, maintenance, young stand work, clearing, thinwood harvesting, and pruning with outstanding efficiency. Three operating modes — Eco, Felling, and Delimbing — automatically configure the saw for each task, maximising both performance and battery runtime.
The full electric output of 3.5 kW is converted into a chain speed of up to 30 m/s via the STIHL AP 500 S or ALLPRO battery. Paired with the STIHL .325" RS Pro saw chain and Light 04 guide bar, the MSA 300 C-O delivers high cutting performance at reduced weight. The weatherproof IPX4-certified construction and STIHL anti-vibration system ensure reliable, comfortable operation across demanding conditions. The operation and notification cockpit provides real-time status data at a glance.
⚠️ Requires AP 500 S or ALLPRO battery for full functionality and maximum cutting performance. Other AP batteries may not deliver all functions or maximum performance. Battery sold separately.
Note: STIHL recommends STIHL SynthPlus or STIHL BioPlus chain lubricants. Other light chain lubricants on a vegetable or mineral oil base are also suitable.
