The chain tension would continue to increase as the bar retaining nut was tightened. The video also shows that the Easy2Start feature is not on board or broken as it is obvious that the engine’s compression is being felt immediately at the start of the pull.ĭuring the initial break-in period, it was quite difficult to properly tension the chain on the Stihl MS 193 CE. The following video shows how easy the saw is to start. As it is, the saw’s small engine should not present a starting issue for most users. The lack of Easy2Start is not an issue as it removes an level of complexity in the day-to-day operation of the saw: in essence, one less thing to fail. It can only be concluded that this saw came without the Easy2Start feature, or it came with a defective one. You feel the engine compression immediately when starting the pull. This saw pulls just like a “regular” saw. It is unknown if this saw came without the feature, or if the feature was broken before the saw was received (a not-so far-fetched scenario given the starting technique used by the dealer associate prior to delivery). In writing this review, it was debated whether to leave the E out of the model designation. There is no gradual pulling until the spring tension is over-come and the saw fires. The box label states the Easy2Start feature is on board, but it would seem this saw does not have it. The review saw is easy to start, but there was no noticeable difference between pulling the MS 193’s starting cord and pulling the starter cords of non Easy2Start chainsaw’s. The Stihl MS 193 C-E features Stihl’s Easy2Start system. The saw was not adjusted during the break-in period, even though the saw did occasionally stall when the throttle was released.Ī look under the hood of Stihl’s MS 193 C-E. Once warmed up, the saw seems to cut fairly well, but the review saw came from the dealer with the carb set quite rich, which some say is a good thing during the break-in period (whether this is true of modern saws or not, like everything in the internet forums, is hotly debated). After starting, the small strato engine does require a couple of minutes warm-up. The MS 193 C-E starts up easily and consistently.

The starting procedure is a little more involved in that there is a separate full choke switch on the side of the handle as opposed to Stihl’s patented single master control lever on their larger saws. Outboard clutch makes bar and chain removal more difficult Small, narrow bar is very sensitive to dirt and debris- clogs easilyĬhain tension system requires breaking in and is difficult to tension out of the boxĪutomatic oiler is anemic with 16” stock bar Strato-charged engine is cold blooded and needs more time to warm upĪdjustable carb is quite finicky with a hard to find sweet spot Strato-charged engine promises lower emissions and lower fuel consumption with increased power. The anti-vibe is incredibly smooth and refined and this saw promises to be a well balanced detail carver once I get around to forking out the additional $200.00 to equip it with a carving bar, chain and sprocket/rim.
Its strato-charged engine promises a BHP of 1.8 with lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions. Weighing in at 10.2 pounds fully fueled with a 16” bar and 3/8”p chain the MS 193 C-E is extremely light. The MS 193 C-E is a light-weight and nimble 30.1 cc rear handled saw.
