Product information & specifications
Please note that this model is only available as a tool only without battery and charger. If you do not already have a battery or charger, please make sure that you add these to your basket.
The MSA 190 T is a powerful top-handle chainsaw designed for use by professional arborists. It has been designed for small to medium pruning tasks, such as crown maintenance and removing dead wood. Designed with professionals in mind, it has comparable power to the petrol MS 194 T and offers a lower weight alternative to the STIHL MSA 220 T battery-powered top-handle chainsaw.
With excellent power-to-weight ratio, this chainsaw is comfortable to use over long periods of time and is compact and perfectly balanced in its design – when used with the AP 200 S battery, it counterbalances the guide bar for effortless control and reduced wrist strain. The MSA 190 T has a high chain speed of up to 20 m/s which makes it ideal for fine and precise cuts. The bumper spikes help to fix the chainsaw in place on wood, making precise cuts easy. And as the chainsaw is battery-powered, it means it can be used in noise sensitive areas such as around schools, hospitals and residential areas.
Fitted as standard with the 1.
1mm 3/8” P PS3 Pro saw chain and Light 01 guide bar for increase performance. An eyelet accessory is available separately which allows the MSA 190 T to be carried easily alongside the operator’s belt carabiner. Like most AP System tools, the MSA 190 T is IPX4 rated meaning it can be used in all types of weather conditions.
With a fully charged AP 200 S battery, the MSA 190 T has a working time of up to 48 minutes. The AP 200 S battery provides the best balance to weight ratio for the MSA 190 T. For longer working times, you can use the AP 300 S or AP 500 S battery – although this will affect the balance.
Must be used with AP 200 S, AP 300 S or AP 500 S battery for full performance.
NOTE: For purchase by certified arborists only.

Product Info
Product Info
Thanks to intelligent electronics, STIHL power tools and batteries communicate with each other. If the device and battery are equipped with the POWER BOOST function, the battery always provides the maximum possible power for the respective application. In order to ensure optimum battery life, the device temporarily adjusts the power if it is used too intensively.
With other brands of battery tools, the performance usually decreases during work as the battery discharges. This is not the case with STIHL cordless power tools with CONSTANT POWER. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your STIHL power tool works with consistently high power.
Thanks to STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning, you can tension your saw chain quickly and without tools, thanks to the adjusting wheel. Turning the adjusting wheel to the left releases tension on the saw chain, and turning the adjustment wheel to the right tensions the saw chain. The guide bar will be automatically secured when you tighten the sprocket cover.
Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover.
Thanks to the bayonet closure, you can open and close the tool-free fuel cap in just a few simple steps.
With the transparent oil tank, you can easily and quickly check the fill level of the chain oil. This means that you always know when you need to add chain oil for efficient work over long periods.
The control lever with potentiometer function allows you to control the speed of your battery-powered chainsaw on an infinitely variable basis, and in this way easily control and adjust its performance as needed. On consumer chainsaws, the potentiometer function is integrated into the throttle lever.
Thanks to the fold-out hook, you can attach the tool to a suspension rope, then pull it up into the treetop or lower it down from there. You can also use it to secure the power tool. When folded away, the hook does not interfere with work or storage.
Thanks to its compact design, low weight and high efficiency, the EC engine enables you to work in an energy efficient manner. This engine also has a long service life.
The IPX protection classes define the moisture protection of electrical or electronic devices. The moisture protection test is defined in different stages. IPX4 certifies protection against splashwater from all sides. Battery-powered tools with this certification are therefore designed for daily use, even in rainy conditions.
