The MS 880 MAGNUM® chain saw is our heavy-hitting professional model built for the big jobs. Precision balanced for superb handling and reliability under the most strenuous conditions, this saw features the IntelliCarb™ compensating carburetor, decompression valve for unforced starting, heavy-duty, easy-to-maintain air filter and side-access chain tensioner. This is STIHL’s most powerful chain saw model for the forestry professional.

Features

Anti-vibration system

Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to long-term effects on blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL has therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system whereby the oscillations from the machine's engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
STIHL ElastoStart

STIHL ElastoStart reduces the shock caused by the compression of the engine during starting. The compression shock is taken away from the user's joints and muscles through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.
Tool free filler caps

Special catches on the fuel and oil tanks for easy opening and locking without the need for tools.
Decompression valve

The decompression valve is part of the easy starting system. The valve should be pressed before starting to reduce the compression pressure when starting, as well as the effort needed to pull the starter rope. The decompression valve is semi-automatic; it must be pressed manually before starting, but then closes automatically.
Compensator

This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the quantity of air passing through the air filter. This keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.
Ematic chain lubrication system

The Ematic chain lubrication system ensures pinpoint lubrication of the saw chain links and guide bar rails. When used with STIHL OILOMATIC saw chain, it will provide maximum lubrication, longer wear and less oil consumption than conventional methods of chain lubrication. The Ematic system can reduce bar oil consumption by up to 50%.
Side chain tensioner

The tensioning screw can be found on the side of chain saw through the sprocket cover. This removes the need for contact with the sharp saw chain.
Single-lever master control

All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever.
Variable-displacement oil pump

The exact chain oil output can be adjusted manually for varying conditions, allowing for a reduction of up to 50%.
