Description
MS 363 petrol chainsaw: lightweight and powerful professional power tool with high comfort
The robust STIHL MS 363 petrol chainsaw is designed for professional forestry work, such as felling medium-diameter trees. It is not only characterised by high cutting performance with low fuel consumption, it also impresses with its optimum power-to-weight ratio. Thanks to its compact design, the STIHL MS 363 chainsaw is particularly manoeuvrable and therefore ideal for pruning work.
The STIHL Elasto Start special shock absorber grip makes starting your petrol chainsaw much easier. All functions, such as cold start, warm start, operation and shutdown, can be controlled comfortably and safely with the single-lever control, which means that the right hand can always remain on the handle. The air filter has a particularly large surface area, which can significantly extend maintenance intervals and reduce maintenance costs.
Other features and benefits of the STIHL MS 363 petrol chainsaw:
Decompression valve for easier starting:
-STIHL anti-vibration system for noticeably fewer vibrations and less fatigue when working
-Side-mounted chain tensioning for easy and safe chain tensioning
-Tool-free tank caps for quick and easy opening and closing by hand
-Improved grip ergonomics thanks to optimised handle and wider knee support surface

Features:
Side-Mounted Chain Tensioning: For simple and secure chain tensioning. Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover
Controlled-Delivery Oil Pump: Oil consumption based on need. The controlled-delivery oil pump reduces your chainsaw’s oil consumption by up to 50%. To use it, simply select the E position. For very long cutting attachments or very dry wood, an additional oil volume can be set by the user.
Long-Life Air Filter System for Chainsaws: Extended filter service life. Pre-separation routing removes coarse, larger particles from the airstream before they can reach the actual filter. The HD2 filter keeps even fine dust away from the engine, ensuring a long engine service life, long cleaning intervals and easy maintenance of your chainsaw. When we refer to a long-life air filter system in chainsaws, this exclusively describes models that have pre-separation routing and an HD2 filter. With this system, you benefit from a significantly longer filter service life compared to conventional air filter systems.
HD2-Filter: Increases service life. The HD2 filter protects your power tool’s engine against even the finest dust, ensuring a longer service life and reduced wear. The filter made from PET material has up to 70% finer pores than fleece and polyamide filters, and is also oil- and water-repellent. This also makes it easier to clean the filter. When needed, the filter cartridge can be easily replaced without tools.
Tool-Free Fuel Cap for Oil and Fuel Tanks: Quick and easy to use. With tool-free fuel cap, you can open and close oil and fuel tanks in just a few simple steps, thanks to a bayonet closure.
Stihl Ematic System: Reduces oil consumption. The STIHL Ematic system comprises a STIHL Ematic or Ematic S guide bar, a STIHL Oilomatic saw chain and a controlled-delivery oil pump. It ensures that the chain oil gets to where it is needed for lubrication. This allows you to reduce oil consumption by up to 50%. If you often work in dusty conditions or if you use long guide bars, you can quickly and easily increase the oil quantity at any time with the new oil pump system.
