Features

MS 462 C-M R

Standard equipment

  • STIHL M-Tronic (FT) Zoom
    STIHL M-Tronic (FT)

    For a cold start, the STIHL M-Tronic only needs one start position on the combi-lever. After starting, you can immediately power up to full speed. The amount of fuel required is precisely calculated by the system and supplied as needed. Otherwise, start in position I as usual.

  • STIHL 2-MIX ENGINE Zoom
    STIHL 2-MIX ENGINE

    HIGHLY POWER-EFFICIENT. With the STIHL 2-MIX engine, you can reduce exhaust emissions and fuel consumption, and therefore operating costs. This 2-stroke engine is low-maintenance and uses fuel efficiently even at high power levels. Use a mixture of petrol and engine oil as fuel. The STIHL 2-MIX engine complies with the strict EU Stage V emissions directive.

  •  HD2 filter with radial seal Zoom
    HD2 filter with radial seal

    The new HD2 air filter, made from PET material and featuring a radial seal, prevents the intake of fine dust particles. The hermetic seal increases the service life of the engine and reduces wear.

  • GUARD PLATE ON THE MUFFLER Zoom
    GUARD PLATE ON THE MUFFLER

    PRACTICAL. The guard plate prevents residue build-up on the muffler of your power tool and reduces muffler contamination when cutting very dirty materials such as bitumen.

  • SIDE-MOUNTED CHAIN TENSIONING Zoom
    SIDE-MOUNTED CHAIN TENSIONING

    FOR SIMPLE AND SECURE RE-TENSIONING. Side-mounted chain tensioning allows for protected, easy and quick chain tensioning and replacement. The tensioning screw is inserted laterally through the sprocket cover.

  • STIHL Ematic with new oil pump system Zoom
    STIHL Ematic with new oil pump system

    The new oil pump system allows a higher volume of oil to be delivered. This is especially useful in dusty conditions or when using a long guide bar.

  • LARGE STARTER GRIP Zoom
    LARGE STARTER GRIP

    EASY STARTING EVEN WHEN WEARING GLOVES. Start your chainsaw safely and easily with the large starter grip. It’s easy to use the grip even with bulky gloves on.

  • COMPENSATOR Zoom
    COMPENSATOR

    REDUCED MAINTENANCE. The compensator is a control system in the carburettor, which uses pressure compensation to ensure that engine performance, exhaust gas quality and fuel consumption remain virtually constant over a long period of time, despite increasing contamination of the air filter. You do not need to clean the air filter until there is a noticeable drop in performance. This means that you can work for a long time without maintenance.

  • MANUAL DECOMPRESSION Zoom
    MANUAL DECOMPRESSION

    EFFORTLESS START-UP. The decompression valve makes it easier to start your power tool. When starting, you can allow some of the compressed mixture to escape from the cylinder by opening the valve. This protects the start-up system and reduces the amount of force required on the starter cord.

  • STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM Zoom
    STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM

    FOR MORE PLEASANT WORK. Vibrations can occur when you put your power tools through their paces, and these are particularly noticeable in the grip area. The buffer and spring elements of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of engine vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body. The result is that your power tool is more comfortable to hold and your work is much less tiring.

  • OPTIMISED SPROCKET COVER Zoom
    OPTIMISED SPROCKET COVER

    SAVES YOUR ENERGY. The optimised sprocket cover is narrower and flatter than the previous model. This improvement enables effortless delimbing and excellent chip removal. It has integrated slide rails and a guide edge, making it easier to guide the power tool along the trunk.

  • COMBI LEVER WITH STOP FUNCTION Zoom
    COMBI LEVER WITH STOP FUNCTION

    SIMPLIFIED OPERATION. Only one start position is required on the combi lever. Thanks to the stop function, once the machine is turned off the control lever immediately moves back into the operating position. This allows a warm machine to be restarted immediately.

  • CAPTIVE NUTS Zoom
    CAPTIVE NUTS

    PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS The nuts are attached to the sprocket cover in a captive manner. This makes it impossible for the nuts to fall off and get lost when the cover is removed.

  • Tool free fuel caps Zoom
    Tool free fuel caps

    Special caps to open and close the tank cap quickly, easily and without tools.

  • Tubular loop handle with combination socket tool Zoom
    Tubular loop handle with combination socket tool

    Ensures good handling and outstanding ergonomics when cutting. The combination socket tool is always close at hand, e.g. when changing the chain.

  • CUT-DEPTH LIMITER WITH QUICK-RELEASE TENSIONER Zoom
    CUT-DEPTH LIMITER WITH QUICK-RELEASE TENSIONER

    ENABLES DEPTH-CONTROLLED CUTS. With the help of the cut-depth limiter with quick-release tensioner, the cutting depth can be adjusted up to approx. 20 cm on an infinitely variable basis. This can be done quickly and easily, even when wearing gloves.

  • Cutting depth limiter quick-release tensioner Zoom
    Cutting depth limiter quick-release tensioner

    Facilitates use in different positions. Improves the grip and tension of the cutting depth limiter.

    • STIHL Smart Connector Zoom
      STIHL Smart Connector

      The STIHL Smart Connector forms the basis for using all STIHL connected functions. These functions can be used via both the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connect Portal. Once correctly attached to a STIHL power tool or another manufacturer’s power tool, the STIHL Smart Connector records operational hours while the machine is running, stores them and transmits them to your smartphone via Bluetooth as soon as it is within range. The data received in the STIHL connected App is transferred to the STIHL Cloud when there is an internet connection. The data is stored there in compliance with data protection regulations. The STIHL connected App and STIHL connected Portal allow you to access your power tool data at any time. STIHL connected opens up new avenues for professional users to obtain a convenient and transparent overview of their own power tool fleet. At the same time, STIHL connected provides information including operational hours, power tool status including reminders of overdue maintenance, the last known location, and whether or not the power tools are currently nearby. For professional users, this means improved digital fleet management, more efficient processes within companies, and even closer contact with STIHL dealers. Private users can also use the system to keep an eye on their power tools and carry out maintenance at the right time.
