From its slim sprocket cover design to its simple, proven, non-electronic carburetor, the STIHL® MS 462 gives you the performance and features you need to get the job done right.

Features:

• Professional Power, Rugged Dependability, and Adjustable Carburetor – Proven, non-electronic carburetor design delivers professional power, rugged dependability, and allows for limited adjustments in the field.
• HD2 Air Filter – Washable for extended filter life and lower maintenance costs. Large surface area provides longer run times between cleanings and consistent performance even in dusty conditions, while offering superior engine protection.
• STIHL® ElastoStart™ – Exclusive starter grip with a built-in shock absorber reduces effort when pulling the starter cord by smoothing out peak forces during cranking.
• Ematic™ Lubrication System – When paired with STIHL® OILOMATIC® saw chain, ensures proper lubrication while reducing oil consumption by up to 50%.
• STIHL® Quickstop® Chain Brake – Chain-stopping system designed to reduce the risk of injury in kickback situations by stopping the chain within fractions of a second, activated by hand or inertia.
• Lightweight Portability – Easy to carry and maneuver, reducing fatigue during extended use.
• High Output Adjustable Oiler – Provides additional lubrication for longer guide bars or dry/dusty conditions when used with STIHL® OILOMATIC® chain and STIHL® Ematic™ guide bars.
• Winter/Summer Shutter – Helps maintain optimum carburetor temperature year-round and prevents icing in temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
• Unique Bumper Spike Design – Ensures optimal cutting performance across tree species.
• Decompression Valve – Temporarily reduces compression in the combustion chamber for easier starting.
• Pre-Separation Air Filtration System – Uses centrifugal force to eject heavier dirt particles before they reach the filter, doubling cleaning intervals and extending filter life.
• Side-Access Chain Tensioner – Convenient chain adjustment with a bar wrench.
• Master Control Lever™ – Single lever operates the choke, starting throttle lock, and on/off switch for simple operation.
• STIHL® Anti-Vibration System – Minimizes vibration for greater comfort and reduced operator fatigue.
• Toolless Fuel and Oil Caps with Retainers – Easy opening and secure closing without tools.
• Throttle Trigger Lock – Safety feature that must be engaged before activating the trigger.
