2027 Stihl MS 251 C-BE 

2027 Stihl MS 251 C-BE

The MS 251 C-BE chainsaw is powered by the same large displacement engine as the MS 251 WOOD BOSS® with added comfort features like STIHL Easy2Start™.

The STIHL MS 251 C-BE offers all the comfort and capability of the MS 251 WOOD BOSS®, with added features that make starting and adjusting the saw even easier. Designed for ambitious homeowners, it’s a versatile choice for everything from felling small trees and pruning to thinning and cutting firewood, especially when there’s a bigger job waiting.

With up to 20% greater fuel savings and a 50% reduction in exhaust emissions compared to previous models, the MS 251 C-BE helps you get more from every tank while reducing emissions. And when the chain needs to be tightened, the Quick Chain Adjuster makes it easy to get the proper tension without tools, so you can make a quick adjustment and keep going.

Easy2Start™ technology takes some of the effort out of starting, while the Master Control Lever™ keeps essential functions within easy reach. The anti-vibration system helps make extended sawing more comfortable, and a tool-free fuel cap keeps refueling simple. It’s the added convenience that sets the MS 251 C-BE apart, without giving up the dependable performance that makes the MS 251 WOOD BOSS® a favorite.

Features May Include:

Anti-Vibration System

• STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.

Bumper Spikes

• These spikes prevent pull-in and provide better control, making cutting easier.

High-Tech Polymer Housings

• Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.

IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor

• The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor is designed to automatically adjust the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted or partially clogged and maintains the engine’s correct RPM. IntelliCarb™ uses air from the clean side of the air filter to control the diaphragm and flow of fuel. As the air filter becomes dirty and less air is available for the carburetor, the IntelliCarb™ system adjusts the fuel flow to compensate for the decrease in air flow. This is in contrast to typical carburetors that utilize this air from the “dirty” side of the air box.

Made in America

• A majority of STIHL products sold in America are made in America of U.S. and global materials.

Master Control Lever™

• The Master Control Lever™ is an easy to use single lever, operating the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch. The operator must pull the throttle trigger before moving the Master Control Lever™ to the choke position.

Throttle Trigger Lockout

• This safety feature must be depressed before the trigger can be activated.

Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers

• Simply lift the lever and twist the caps to remove or tighten. There’s no need to use a tool to tighten or loosen.
