Overview

The STIHL MS 382 Petrol Chainsaw (25″ Configuration) serves as the ultimate high-reach standard for professional forestry, logging, and heavy wood cutting. Fitted with an extended 63 cm (25 inch) guide bar and STIHL’s smooth-cutting 36RM semi-chisel chain, it gives operators the extra length needed to tackle thick hardwoods, large tree trunks, and tough plantation logs with minimal bending.

Key Features & Benefits

• Extended 25″ Reach & High Torque: The 72.2 cc engine outputting 3.9 kW (5.3 bhp) provides steady power through deep, full-bar cuts in dense timber without stalling.

• 36RM Semi-Chisel Chain: Standard 3/8″ pitch, 1.6 mm (.063″) gauge Rapid Micro chain stays sharp longer in dusty or tough conditions and offers smooth, controllable cutting.

• Effortless Starting: Equipped with STIHL ElastoStart and an integrated decompression valve, compression peaks are dampened during pull-starting to protect operator joints.

• Single-Lever Master Control: Cold start, warm start, operation, and engine shutdown are all managed via a single intuitive lever for simple, safe handling.

• Ematic™ Chain Lubrication System: Works with the bar and chain to deliver targeted oiling, reducing chain oil consumption by up to 50% compared to conventional systems.

• Advanced Anti-Vibration System: Tuned buffer zones minimize engine and chain vibrations reaching the handles, reducing operator fatigue on long shifts.

• Compensator Engine Management: Keeps the air/fuel mixture optimized even as the air filter collects dust, maintaining top engine performance across extended runs.

• Side-Access Chain Tensioner: Safe and easy side-access tensioning keeps hands clear of the long 25″ chain during adjustments.

• Tool-Free Tank Caps: Wide-opening bayonet fuel and oil caps allow quick, leak-free refueling in the field.
