STIHL MS 300 C-M VW Petrol Chainsaw

Professional Performance in Every Season

The STIHL MS 300 C-M VW petrol chainsaw is designed for professional forestry, arboriculture and demanding woodland management. Built to replace the respected MS 261 C-M, it delivers greater performance while maintaining exceptional handling. Its 53.3cc engine produces 3.3kW of power, creating an excellent power-to-weight ratio for demanding applications. At only 4.8kg, it remains comfortable during long working days.

This VW model adds electrically heated handles, providing greater comfort and a more secure grip in freezing conditions. The maintenance-free heating elements warm both handles whenever required. An electrically heated carburettor also activates automatically to prevent icing, ensuring dependable performance throughout winter.

Powerful Cutting with Intelligent Engine Management

The advanced STIHL 2-MIX engine combines strong cutting performance with reduced fuel consumption and lower exhaust emissions. This efficient engine meets EU Stage V emissions standards, helping lower operating costs without compromising productivity. Increased torque keeps the chain moving confidently through thicker timber with less effort.

The STIHL M-Tronic 3.0 engine management system automatically adjusts ignition timing and fuel delivery to suit changing conditions. Altitude, temperature and fuel quality are continuously monitored for optimum performance. Rapid chain acceleration improves cutting efficiency, allowing work to continue with minimal interruption.

Precision, Control and Easy Operation

A STIHL Light 04 guide bar combined with the .325-inch RS Pro saw chain delivers accurate, clean cutting performance. Parallel plunge guides and a vertical felling guide provide valuable visual references during specialist cutting tasks. These features help improve cutting direction, plunge depth and overall accuracy.

Starting is made easier with the decompression valve, reducing the force needed on the starter cord. The single-position combi lever simplifies operation while enabling quick restarts after temporary stops. Together, these features improve productivity throughout demanding forestry work.

Built to Reduce Maintenance

The HD2 air filter system uses pre-separation technology to remove larger particles before they reach the filter element. Fine dust remains away from the engine, extending service life and reducing wear. Longer cleaning intervals allow professional users to spend more time working.

A built-in compensator system maintains engine performance despite gradual air filter contamination. Fuel efficiency, emissions and power remain consistent between maintenance intervals. The tool-free HD2 filter is also quick to remove and replace whenever required.

Comfortable and Reliable Throughout the Day

The STIHL anti-vibration system significantly reduces vibrations reaching the handles, improving comfort during prolonged operation. Reduced vibration lowers fatigue while providing greater control across demanding cutting applications. An improved rear handle design and wide knee support further enhance handling and stability.

The side-mounted chain tensioner allows quick, protected chain adjustments without unnecessary effort. Captive bar nuts remain attached to the sprocket cover, preventing accidental loss during maintenance. A tool-free bayonet fuel cap also makes refuelling fast, simple and convenient.

Efficient Lubrication for Long Service Life

The controlled-delivery oil pump works with the STIHL Ematic lubrication system to supply oil precisely where it is required. This intelligent combination can reduce oil consumption by up to 50% under suitable conditions. Oil delivery can also be increased easily when cutting dry timber or using longer guide bars.

Combining STIHL M-Tronic 3.0, a 53.3cc 2-MIX engine, heated handles, an electrically heated carburettor, HD2 filtration and Ematic lubrication, the MS 300 C-M VW delivers exceptional professional performance, outstanding winter reliability and superb cutting precision.
