A powerful all-purpose saw for the farmer who needs the power of a professional saw but does not want to invest in the longevity and equipment of a professional saw (adjustable oil pump, HD2 air filter)

The Stihl MS 291 is a powerful all-round chainsaw in the STIHL range for use in agriculture, gardening and municipal maintenance. 20% lower fuel consumption and up to 50% fewer harmful emissions thanks to the 2-MIX engine.

HD2 air filter

Air filter that can be changed/removed without tools. Suitable for all conditions (warm, cold, dry, damp, etc.) and washable. Thanks to a special material, it repels water and oil

STIHL 2-MIX®

2-MIX: Using a unique 4-channel technology developed by STIHL, a cushion of fresh air is created between the combustion residues and the fresh fuel. This cushion reduces the amount of fresh fuel that mixes into the combustion residues, thereby reducing fuel consumption. This also produces fewer emissions and makes the engine gentler on the environment.

About guide bars

STIHL produces a full range of guide bars for all STIHL chainsaws. With a few exceptions,
all STIHL guide bars use the oil-saving Ematic system. Every guide bar marked with the letter E
is an Ematic guide bar. STIHL guide bars are available in a wide range of lengths and in gauges of 1.1 mm (Rollomatic
Mini), 1.3 mm, 1.5 mm and 1.6 mm.

– straight-line cutting,
– kickback behaviour,
– durability.
A long bar groove is milled into the edge of the guide bar. The base of the drive link reaches the guide ba
