The STIHL MSA 260 C-O Battery Chainsaw is built for professionals in landscaping, forestry and local government, delivering the power and efficiency needed for felling and pruning small to medium-sized trees. Part of the STIHL ALLPRO System, it offers an excellent power-to-weight ratio for productive work with reduced operator fatigue.
Combining high cutting performance with a lightweight, well-balanced design, the MSA 260 C-O helps maximise productivity during long working days. The interchangeable chain sprocket allows you to switch between 3/8" P and .325" chain pitch, providing flexibility to match different cutting applications.
To help maximise battery efficiency, the motor features a 5-second activation mode. If the chainsaw is activated but not used within this time, it automatically switches off to help conserve battery power.
The integrated oil sensor continuously monitors chain oil levels, helping reduce interruptions and optimise lubrication. For best performance, STIHL recommends using STIHL SynthPlus, BioPlus or ForestPlus chain lubricants, although other suitable vegetable or mineral-based chain oils can also be used.
Refer to the STIHL battery life and charging times guide to view compatible batteries, recommended battery options and expected runtimes.
The MSA 260 C-O is certified to IPX4 protection, making it splashproof for reliable operation in wet weather.
Note: Tools in the STIHL ALLPRO System are compatible with both ALLPRO and AP batteries.
