VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. – The newest STIHL professional chain saw, the MS 441 STIHL Magnum™, is coming this summer to a servicing dealer near you. The MS 441 STIHL Magnum™ chain saw boasts a new, highly efficient prefiltration system that extends cleaning intervals, doubling the filter life of former systems. Compared to the legendary MS 440, this machine boasts a 15% fuel efficiency increase, and vibration has been reduced by 60% for operator comfort. With a powerful 70.7 cc, 5.5 bhp engine featuring advanced combustion technology, the MS 441 delivers more power and a higher torque level over a wide RPM range than its conventional two-stroke counterparts while offering lower fuel consumption and low emission levels.
