With the AK 30 battery, this chainsaw provides up to 45 minutes of excellent cutting performance on a single charge, making it ideal for limb removal and storm cleanup.
At 8.6 lbs. with the bar and chain and AK 30 battery, and 5.7 lbs. without battery, the MSA 140 C-B is compact and lightweight, making it incredibly easy to use and maneuver. Additionally, the chainsaw features the exclusive ¼” STIHL PICCO saw chain, which guarantees clean and smooth cuts.
