Vibration levels are one of the most important things to consider when you’re looking for a chainsaw. The vibrations that come from using a chainsaw can really take a toll on your body and cause long term damage to your muscles and joints. If you want to give yourself the best chance at avoiding injury, then it’s important that you choose a saw with low vibration levels. There are two different measurements that can be used to gauge the vibration level of a chainsaw: the left/right measurements and the front/back measurements.
The left/right measurement tells us how much vibration will be transferred over to your right hand versus your left hand. The front/back measurement tells us how much vibration will be transferred to the handles at the front of the chainsaw versus the handle at the back of the chainsaw. These measurements are typically given in meters per second squared (m/s2).
Die MS 170 und die 231 C-BE both have the same anti-vibration system, which dampens the vibrations of the engine and chainsaw as a whole. Ebenfalls, they both have the same weight of 5.5 Pfund, with no difference between the two in that regard. Die MS 170 is slightly less expensive than the MS 231 C-BE at $199.95 gegen $329.95.
