MS 462 C-M Chain Saw: for maximum sawing performance when felling and delimbing in forestry

The STIHL MS 462 C-M is a very lightweight professional chainsaw in the 70 cm³ cubic capacity class. This makes it highly efficient in supporting work in forests, for foresters, and in landscaping, horticulture and agriculture. The 4.4 kW (6 hp) power is ideal for felling and delimbing medium-density and high-density tree stands.

Thanks to its weight-optimised components, it comes in at just 6.0 kg, making it extremely agile. We know every gram of weight matters when you are working on demanding tasks. It also accelerates quickly and runs at a constant maximum speed.

The STIHL MS 462 C-M forestry chainsaw offers an impressive, powerful STIHL 2-MIX engine and very good power-to-weight ratio. The fully electronic STIHL M-Tronic engine management system ensures straightforward starting and optimal engine performance at all times. Other sophisticated features of this gas-driven chainsaw include:

• Tool-free fuel caps that enable quick and easy filling of oil and gas.
• Quick and easy chain replacement thanks to captive nuts on the sprocket cover.
• When working in dusty conditions, the HD2 air filter with radial seal reliably protects the engine against fine dust and is easy to clean, for example using STIHL VarioClean. The combination of the HD2 air filter and a pre-separation routing system that also comes as standard on the MS 462 means you benefit from a long-life air filter system.

Features:

• Note on Appearance: The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.
• Reliable Work with the Best Performance: The STIHL M-Tronic system ensures optimal performance from your tool by electronically managing ignition timing and fuel metering based on external conditions such as temperature, altitude, and fuel quality.
• For More Pleasant Work: The STIHL anti-vibration system features buffer and spring elements that reduce engine vibration transmission to the handle area, making the tool more comfortable to hold and reducing fatigue during use.
• Effortless Start-Up: The decompression valve facilitates easier starting by allowing some of the compressed mixture to escape from the cylinder, thus reducing the force needed on the starter cord and protecting the start-up system.
• Extended Filter Service Life: The Langzeit-Filtersystem with pre-separation routing removes larger particles from the airstream before they reach the HD2 filter, ensuring longer filter service life, extended engine service life, and easier maintenance.
• Highly Power-Efficient: The STIHL 2-MIX engine offers reduced exhaust emissions and fuel consumption, resulting in lower operating costs. It is low-maintenance and uses fuel efficiently, even at high power levels, complying with the EU Stage V emissions directive.
• For Simple and Secure Re-Tensioning: Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement through a lateral tensioning screw.
• Quick and Easy to Use: The tool-free fuel cap features a bayonet closure, making it easy to open and close oil and fuel tanks with minimal effort.
