FEATURES & BENEFITS
MS 311 CHAINSAW
STIHL MS 311 CHAINSAW
The STIHL MS 311 Chainsaw, with its powerful gas-powered motor and lightweight design (it's only 13.67 pounds), is a superb instrument for felling trees in medium-sized stands. The long-lasting air filter in this chainsaw ensures peak performance and durability. The 2-MIX engine is fuel efficient, and the decompression valve makes it simple to start. A guide bar length of 16 inches combined with an OILOMATIC® CHAIN 3/8" RS3 will yield a clean, precise cut every time. The MS 311 has a big fuel capacity of 20.3 ounces and a large chain oil capacity of 11.8 ounces, reducing the amount of time spent refilling. The STIHL MS 311 Chainsaw features a powerful engine that will meet or surpass your expectations in terms of power, performance, and dependability, thanks to its 4.2 bhp output and 3.6 cu. in. displacement.STIHL 2-MIX ENGINE
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.
DECOMPRESSION VALVE
Easy starting includes the decompression valve. Pressing the valve before starting reduces compression pressure and starter rope effort. The semi-automatic decompression valve opens manually but closes automatically.
STIHL ELASTOSTART
When starting an internal combustion engine, the stresses are jerky because of the compression pressure. In the ElastoStart special starter grip, the damping element alternately absorbs and releases force based on how the grip is compressed. This makes for a smooth and even start.
PRE-SEPARATION AIR FILTER
STIHL long-life air filtration systems with pre-separation achieve perceptibly longer filter life compared with conventional filter systems. Air drawn in is swirled. The larger, heavier particles are ejected. The pre-cleaned air is routed to the air filter via the pre-separator duct.
SIDE-MOUNTED CHAIN TENSIONING
Side-mounted chain tensioning makes it easy to tension the chain safely.
COMPENSATOR
This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the quantity of air passing through the air filter. This keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.
TOOL FREE FUEL CAP
Special caps to open and close the tank cap quickly, easily and without tools. Located on both Gas & Bar Oil tanks for easy and quick access.
STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM
Precisely calculated buffer zones minimise the transfer of engine and saw chain vibrations to the front and rear handles. The chainsaw therefore runs noticeably smoother. This allows the user to save their strength and work longer.
ADVANCED COMBUSTION TECHNOLOGY
Four overflow channels swirl the fuel-air mix before ignition, allowing for optimum combustion and highly efficient performance. The result is lower fuel consumption and high torque across a broad rpm range.
STIHL EMATIC SYSTEM
The STIHL Ematic technology decreases chain lubrication use by up to 50% compared to conventional bars, depending on wood type and cutting attachment. STIHL Ematic or Ematic S guide bars, Oilomatic saw chains, and variable-flow or reduced-flow oil pumps make up this system. Hence, nearly every chain lubricant drop goes where it should.
SINGLE-LEVER MASTER CONTROL
All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever. An easy to use switch and throttle make it simple and easy to start and stop the MS 311 effortlessly
