Pros and points of attention
If you’re felling or processing small to medium stands and want a saw that just gets on with the job, the STIHL MS 261 C-M RS Pro delivers. Its 3.0 kW 2-MIX engine, M-Tronic electronic management and .325" RS Pro chain combine for fast, clean cuts with minimal fuss.
Daily handling stays practical too: a long-life HD2 air filter stretches service intervals, the side chain tensioner is quick to use, and tool-free filler caps speed up refuelling. It’s a robust pro saw designed to start reliably and keep working.
Where it works best
- Felling and debranching in small to medium forestry
- Cutting firewood and bucking logs on site
- Thinning and maintenance work where lively acceleration matters
- Dry or dusty conditions that demand durable filtration
Why this saw stands out
- M-Tronic for optimum power in all conditions
- HD2 filter and pre-separation for long service life
- Adjustable oil pump to match wood and bar length
- Ematic system reduces chain oil consumption
In the hands
Starts are straightforward thanks to the stop-function combi lever and manual decompression. Balance is confident with the 40 cm Light 04 bar, and captive nuts on the sprocket cover prevent losses during chain swaps. Vibration levels are well controlled for a pro-class petrol saw.

Advice from gardenmachineshop.com
Run a new RS Pro chain slightly higher on oil for the first tanks; the adjustable pump makes this easy and helps the bar and chain bed in smoothly.
