A lightweight, nimble petrol chainsaw in the 40 cc class, the 540 XP® Mark III is built for professional tree care and thinning. It combines strong cutting capacity with easy starts (cold or hot) and smooth manoeuvrability, with features that reduce vibration and maintenance time on site.
High cutting capacity
The redesigned engine delivers the torque needed for productive cuts, so you can use longer bars when required without losing performance.
Consistent engine tuning
AutoTune 3.0 keeps the engine optimised across conditions, removing the need for manual carburettor adjustments and improving startability and reliability.
Reduced wear and extended filter life
Air Injection filters approximately 98% of incoming dust, which maintains performance during long workdays and reduces engine wear.
