The STIHL MS 500i is a revolutionary petrol-driven chainsaw designed for forestry professionals and advanced users who need to process thick wood efficiently.
With its exceptional power-to-weight ratio, cutting-edge injection technology, and ergonomic design, this chainsaw delivers unmatched performance for felling, pruning, and cutting to length, even in demanding conditions.
Unmatched Power-to-Weight Ratio: With a market-leading ratio of just 1.24 kg/kW, the MS 500i delivers serious power without the weight. That means less fatigue, better control, and more productivity, especially during long days on the job.
Next-Level STIHL Injection Technology: The first chainsaw in the world with electronically controlled fuel injection. It automatically fine-tunes fuel delivery based on altitude and temperature, so you get peak performance wherever you’re working. And with acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 0.25 seconds, it’s seriously quick.
Built for Efficiency: Powered by STIHL’s proven 2-MIX engine, this saw offers high output, lower fuel consumption, and reduced emissions.
Comfort Meets Control: Thanks to STIHL ElastoStart, startup shock is reduced, helping protect your muscles and joints. Its lightweight build and dynamic handling make it a breeze to manoeuvre, whether you’re pruning or making precision cuts.
Pro-Level Features You’ll Appreciate: From the HD2 air filter that keeps your engine clean, to captive nuts that stay put during maintenance, every detail is designed to make your work easier. You’ll also love the controlled-delivery oil pump, tool-free fuel cap, and side-mounted chain tensioning for fast, fuss-free adjustments
