Description
Designed with an updated modern look, the MS 182 C-BE is a STIHL gasoline-powered chainsaw that homeowners can count on. The MS 182 C-BE is built with more power than the MS 172 C-E, its lightweight design helps reduce user fatigue without forfeiting the powerful performance that users have come to trust. The chainsaw?s 16? Light 04 guide bar consists of three metal plates electrically welded together for a lightweight yet stable feel, and a narrow bar nose is designed to reduce kickback. Equipped with a quick chain adjuster and STIHL Easy2StartTM technology, the MS 182 C-BE is designed for homeowners to get to work quicker when taking on woodcutting tasks around the home. 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. STIHL chainsaws are equipped with a chain stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in certain kickback situations. It is called a STIHL Quickstop® chain brake. The STIHL Quickstop® chain brake is designed to stop the rotation of the chain if activated by the operator?s hand or by inertia if the saw kicks back with sufficient force. In some working positions, the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake can be activated by inertia, stopping the chain within fractions of a second. 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. The side-access chain tensioner makes it convenient for the user to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench as opposed to the typical location of the guide bar adjustment screw. The translucent fuel tank aThe Master Control Lever? is an easy to use single lever, operating the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch.
