The Stihl MSA 300 is the first cordless chain saw designed by Stihl specifically for professional work. The full electrical output of 3.0 kW is converted into a chain speed of up to 30 m/s thanks to the powerful AP 500 S battery developed for this chainsaw. Together with the Light 04 guide rail, this ensures high cutting performance with reduced weight. When working with the MSA 300, professionals are also impressed by the weatherproof and robust construction.
The Stihl anti-vibration system reduces vibrations and relieves your muscles and joints.
All cordless tools within the Stihl AP system are designed for professional users and for daily use, even in adverse weather conditions. The devices also have protection against splashing water from all sides, which has been proven in internal tests. The splash water protection of the Stihl MSA 300, which has already been proven in internal tests, has also been certified according to the IPX4 protection class.
3.0 kW Power Consumption
Ample power to drive an 18″ Light 04 guide bar and RS Pro chain, comparable to MS 261 C-M.
AV System
The lowest vibration out of all Stihl rear-handle chainsaws in the range, comfortable for long periods of use.
Adjustable Oil Pump
In line with all professional petrol saws.
Robust, Durable Construction
Magnesium die-cast components, suitable for demanding professional use while remaining well balanced and compact.
Automatic De-rating
If the battery charge level is low, or the motor temperature is too high, the amperage is reduced. Performance is reduced by 30%, prevents shut-off – completion of the cut is usually possible.
Fleece Air Filter
Protects motor and cooling elements from dirt.
3 Power Settings
Match the performance level to the taste at hand to maximise battery efficiency. Varies the maximum chain speed between 20 m/s, 24 m/s and 30 m/s.
LED Display
Clear red and green LEDs highlight the power level, on/off status, chain brake status and temperature warnings.
Smart Connector 2 A
Plugs directly into the control module.

A seriously amazing chainsaw, I was really apprehensive about its power but should not have been, it really is first class

Machine is great, a pleasure to use, a massive step up in power from my other cordless Stihl. Service was excellent, everything came as ordered, and delivered personally, no courier involved, Unbelievable price! very happy so far, thanks!

This is one of the best chainsaws I’ve used.
It won’t replace an 800 series chainsaw, true. But it might replace your 500i and anything below. It’s quieter and much more comfortable — the difference in vibration is impressive. I have power on demand, and it starts immediately with no repeated swearing at the fuel lines. I mean, there are no fuel lines to swear at. My hands feel normal at the end of the day, not like semi-numb not-quite-there things on the ends of my arms.
Yes, the batteries are pricy. But I can charge three of them, and use them for other products (my strimmer, my lawn mower and my pole saw). I charge them as I go, and I can rotate them so they last all day. It requires a tiny bit of organization, yes, but I can spend a morning chopping down trees, break for lunch and still have a full afternoon’s work.
I really cannot recommend this one highly enough. I use the 18-inch bar, and provided I keep up with my sharpening, it’s hardy enough to do oak, sycamore, ash and pine with ease. Birch and willow, it just eats for breakfast.
If you have a 200 or 300 series chainsaw, you will almost certainly find this is far more comfortable and convenient. If you have a 100, it’ll be overkill — go for the 160 or 220 instead.
Definitely get the AP 500 batteries and use on eco wherever possible.

Like many we were sceptical about adopting battery saws, but the MSA 300 with the AP 500s battery appears to be up to the job. It’s a bit heavier than a MS261, but is much quieter and has less vibration. A single battery charge will cut a 1.2m cubic meter cage of 20cm logs with ease. We have felled and snedded up several 18″ dia. Beech with the saw and it copes well. Its already saved us a 5l of fuel in a day. We will be taking petrol saws out on site with us, but these will now be backups for if & when the batteries run down. If you were out in the woods all day with no recharging facilities you might need more than the 3 batteries we have. The price and service from R&T was great.

Absolutely brilliant chainsaw. Only had the petrol ones previous but this is so easy to use and quiet.
Tony Foley (verified owner) –
Excelleny machine. Should have purchased one years ago. R&T provided great service and would recommend them highly.
James cain (verified owner) –
Crap. Doesn’t perform like ms261. Weighs more than ms400. Battery’s 500s, don’t last long. Saw bogs down in face cuts and and diameter of wood couple inches shorter than bar. Absolutely horrible machine, if you are a professional don’t waste your money. Absolutely crap

Very impressed with this saw, its not lightweight, but you cant have everything. Ploughs through everything I would usually do with my MS180
