Description

The STIHL AP Strop Adapter MSA T is a specialist accessory designed to optimise performance and comfort for professional arborists using STIHL top-handle cordless chainsaws. By relocating the battery weight from the saw to the climber’s harness, the adapter improves handling, reduces fatigue, and increases cutting efficiency during prolonged use in the canopy. The integrated strop serves both as a power cable and a secure fall-protection tether, ensuring safety and productivity at height.

This adapter is ideal for those seeking better balance and reduced strain when operating STIHL arborist saws. The power cable runs from the battery holster, securely attached to the climber’s belt, to the saw’s battery compartment via the AP adapter. The unit includes an emergency release mechanism, overload protection, and a replaceable outer sleeve on the strop for added durability and safety.
