With a high-capacity engine, the MS 881 MAGNUM delivers impressive cutting power and torque, specifically designed for heavy-duty tasks like felling large trees and cutting thick logs.

Equipped with advanced features, the MS 881 MAGNUM further enhances its performance. The Adjustable Automatic Oiler ensures optimal lubrication of the guide bar and saw chain, improving cutting efficiency and prolonging the lifespan of the components. The HD2 Air Filter provides superior air filtration, resulting in a longer filter life and reduced maintenance requirements.

The side-access chain tensioner allows for quick and convenient adjustments to the saw chain without the need for additional tools. The STIHL ElastoStart™ starter handle, featuring a built-in shock absorber, minimizes recoil forces during cranking, guaranteeing smoother and more comfortable starting experiences.
Built to withstand heavy use and harsh conditions, the MS 881 MAGNUM is constructed with high-quality materials and components, ensuring durability and longevity in demanding work environments. Safety is of utmost importance, which is why the chainsaw is equipped with the STIHL Quickstop® chain brake, a safety mechanism that stops the chain's rotation in kickback situations, promoting user safety and preventing potential injuries.

Heavy, but crazy powerful
I bought this saw for cutting stumps and bigger wood. I don’t have any other saw to compare it to in this size but I can compare to my 661. I bought this saw with a 48” bar, so it should do whatever I need it to. When I first fired this saw up, I could tell it was gonna be a whole different animal than the 661. The sound is much lower and more of a rumble than the 661. The 881 sounds like a big dirt bike. It’s first day on the job was stumping and ripping some 42” ash stumps. The saw pulls you into the cut and it melted through that ash like butter when stumping. Then I did the ripping sections and it still didn’t bog down, it just tore through it. It has way more power than the 661 and it’s not even close. The 881 is way stronger on big wood than the 661, so it’ll save a lot of time. The only downside is that it’s heavy, but the power is a trade off for that weight.

Been using it for 3 years
Whoa! This is a machine. Haven’t found a wood to hard to cut. Put it in place and hold on it blows right through a log under its own weight. Use quality fuel and there will be no problem starting. Biggest problem I’ve had is running out of wood.
