Overview

The NEW MS 231 is the successor of the popular MS 230, now equipped with stratified scavenging engine technology which reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% and fullfils all emission regulations. Featuring a toolless replacement air filter with pre-separation for more than double the service life compared to the MS 230, a one piece release shroud for easy maintenance and servicing, and an outstanding control and rigidity with a lower vibration level, this powerful unit is the perfect choice for home maintenance and occassional users
  Features

http://en.stihl.ca/upload/assetmanager/merkmal_imagefilename/scaled/websize/E-MSE180C-T001_g.jpg Anti-vibration system

Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions

Pre-separation air filtration system

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.

Special catches on the fuel and oil tanks for easy opening and locking without the need for tools

http://en.stihl.ca/upload/assetmanager/merkmal_imagefilename/scaled/websize/E100T005_g.jpg 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.

The Ematic chain lubrication system ensures pinpoint lubrication of the saw chain links and guide bar rails. When used with STIHL OILOMATIC saw chain, it will provide maximum lubrication, longer wear and less oil consumption than conventional methods of chain lubrication. The Ematic system can reduce bar oil consumption by up to 50%.

The tensioning screw can be found on the side of chain saw through the sprocket cover. This removes the need for contact with the sharp saw chain.

All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever.

STIHL ElastoStart

STIHL ElastoStart reduces the shock caused by the compression of the engine during starting. The compression shock is taken away from the user's joints and muscles through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.
