Stihl MS 462 C‑M Petrol Chainsaw
The Stihl MS 462 C‑M petrol chainsaw is built for professional forestry and timber work, offering a powerful yet lightweight solution for felling, cross-cutting, and delimbing. Designed for medium to large trees, the Stihl MS 462 C‑M petrol chainsaw delivers fast acceleration, precise control, and long-lasting reliability.
Powerful 72.2 cc 2‑MIX Engine
This model features a 72.2 cc 2‑MIX engine producing 4.4 kW of output power. Its efficient combustion reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% and emissions by as much as 50% compared to conventional two-stroke engines. It’s the lightest saw in its class, with a powerhead weight of just 6.0 kg.
M‑Tronic 3.0 Engine Management
The fully electronic M‑Tronic system adjusts fuel and ignition timing in real time based on altitude, temperature, and load. This ensures consistent performance and eliminates the need for manual carburettor adjustments, even as conditions change throughout the day.
Durability and Operator Comfort
The HD2 long-life air filter system includes a pre-separation stage, which removes larger debris before it reaches the filter, extending cleaning intervals. A decompression valve and ElastoStart handle reduce resistance during startup, making the saw easier to start with less effort.
Easy Handling and Maintenance
With side-mounted chain tensioning, tool-free fuel and oil caps, and an anti-vibration system, this saw prioritises ease of use. Captive nuts on the sprocket cover help prevent loss during maintenance, while the adjustable oil pump and Ematic system optimise lubrication and reduce oil consumption.
Advanced Cutting Features
It includes a slim sprocket cover for improved chip flow, plunge-cut guide markings for precision work, and robust bumper spikes for stability when cutting through tough timber. Compatible with guide bars up to 28″ for large-scale felling jobs.
