Which model is my Stihl Chainsaw?

[Maxparnell]

Can anyone look up what my chainsaw is?
The serial number is 168585352
I want to run a bigger bar on it so need to check which model it is to find out the max bar length it will take.
It says it is a 2007 saw on the sticker but other info is missing.
Thanks.

Nothing on the side or top cover? Pics?

if you can find a serial number and the MFG date of 2007, im guessing you can probably find the big letters/numbers on the side, no?
that tag that says 2007 will say a CC size also, assuming its the tag on the rear handle, going off the CC range we can tell you what size bar it can run

I think u have a ms250
max bar is 18” according to Stihl

cscltd is right, MS 250.

Hey thanks guys, I guessed it was an MS250 or an Ms230, so I can run an 18" bar max. many thanks for your help.

Kinda late here but yes you can run a 18 inch bar if you do get one like a tri link 18 inch bar it needs to have the 62 drive links not 72 like some 18 inch bars there is tho a possibility to run a 20 on it it'll just be extra pull if your I soft wood or small wood it'll be fine

Also, be careful...the MS250 uses the homeowner bar mount not the small-pro mount (e.g., MS260).

Most the non-homeowners Stihls take the 3003 mount, >= 50cc up to the <100cc saws.

18 inch on a 250 is ,325 and 68 drivers. 16 inch is 62.
