STIHL MS 400

[Dub11]

Anyone got a pic of this thing yet?

 

[rocco490]

Any specs would be great. Accurate ones of course...

That saw was kept very quiet, so what saws are definitely being replaced

From what I was told don’t expect any models to be discontinued. Larger than a 362 so likely 4.0 ci, 64ish cc’s . Purposefully overbuilt and designed for line clearing crews and such that are extremely hard on equipment. Very aggressive rev limiter to protect the saws.

Based on so little info being out there I wonder if this was designed in the USA instead of Germany...

so is the 880 being replaced because I have a new 1 with only 10-12 tanks through it and has been back to the dealer twice for warranty work, strongly thinking of demanding a new 1

We heard that it is being discontinued in Europe but not too much about a replacement.

What issues are you having with it?

 

[Nighthunter]

Clutch and carb problems

Man that sounds like such a niche saw and not very exciting.

Not for this group but can be a big market for STIHL. Would hate to know how many 261 & 362’s have blown up and been warranted because of the abuse from this type of use.

The times they are a changing. I know every spec of every saw on the market and have for a decade. Christmas happens and I’m like joe homeowner walking into home depot wanting a 20 inch blade saw. What is this 400

 

[Bigmac]

Probably just a 2mm smaller bore version an ms462?

That’s 66.8 CC right? We’re not talking bar length, correct?

 

[Nighthunter]

That sounds kinda heavy to me for its displacement

That’s MS360/1 weight with 268/038 Super displacement with 044 power.

I don’t see the point in a MS462.

Long live the MS461.
