stihl chainsaws “what do the model numbers MEAN”

[stevendevries]

I think It also closely represents kilowatts 500i= 5kw - 400c= 4kw - 260= 2.6kw atleast on most stihl saws it's close

One thing i've heard mentioned is, if the middle number is EVEN, then its a commercial/forestry grade model. That rule seems to work everywhere except on the MS180/181

[calebhaak]

From what my dealer told me if the number had a 6 in it with the exception of the 500i and the 088/880/881 its a pro forestry saw. 036 360 361 362 046 460 461 066 660 and 661 all pro saws.

What does tc means on the end of stihl chainsaw?

[ashleybellerose]

i always thought the C meant it had easy start on it. Tell me why every saw I have ever PDI with a c was easy start

Mine are a couple years old, 150 and 250, when did that M happen, don't like microprosser in chainsaw sentence, or is that only for the new electric ones?

Hey I have a Farm Boss and it's about 40 years old and I'll be damned if I can reference the numbers that are on it to any actual model number. Any suggestions

None of what you said about the numbers represent engine size at all your way off
