The MSA 300 R is a powerful cordless rescue chainsaw, designed for emergency services and work during rescue operations. A battery-powered alternative to the MS 462 C-M R petrol rescue chainsaw, it uses the same cutting attachments and can cut through composite materials and glass. Three available operating modes enable optimum battery efficiency across applications.
The MSA 300 has a full electrical power of 3.0 kW, which is provided by the AP 500 S* battery. It allows for an adjustable chain speed of 3 different levels - 20m/s, 24m/s and 30 m/s. When used at full power, it can cut through tough materials at speed. It is easy to start with no cold start procedure, for faster operation in rescue situations. As the tool is battery-powered, it has reduced maintenance requirements making it reliable over long periods. Plus, a robust and heat-resistant housing makes the chainsaw suitable for use in touch conditions thanks to its professional construction.
Comes fitted with a Rollomatic ES Rescue guide bar and a Rapid Duro Rescue saw chain which has carbide plated teeth, impact resistance and long-lasting sharpness. Suitable for cutting wood, roofing materials, aluminium siding, composite materials and glad. The drive links are humped, which means kickback is reduced too. A depth limiter allows for controlled plunge cutting, prevents over-cutting and improves safety during use. It includes a 3/8” P rim sprocket which converts the MSA 300 from a .325 pitch to a 3/8” pitch.
The LED display allows for intuitive operation, giving the user notifications on chain brake position and power setting. Mounting point for the STIHL Smart Connector 2 A on the power tool housing. Other features include integrated cooling air filters, captive nut on the sprocket cover and an adjustable oil pump. Like most AP System tools, the MSA 300 is IPX4 rated meaning it can be used in all types of weather conditions.
Working time with AP 500 S battery is up to 20-44 mins (working time depends on chosen speed setting).
*The MSA 300 must be used with the AP 500 S battery, the most powerful AP battery from STIHL, which features power laminate technology - meaning it has double the number of charging cycles of a typical STIHL AP system battery with cylindrical cells. Approximately 253 charging cycles per year (253 working days, excluding weekends and bank holidays in UK) means the battery will last close to 10 years without the typical capacity loss of the battery cells. Integrated Bluetooth® interface for STIHL connected allows the battery to be managed like a power tool.
