STIHL specially engineered its MS 462 C-M and MS 462 R C-M chain saws for the professional user who desires more power and reduced weight, resulting in less user fatigue. According to the company, both chain saws additionally boast:
- The M-Tronic engine management system to electronically control ignition timing and fuel metering, so the saws auto-adjust or adapt to varying operating conditions, such as changes in altitude and fuel quality for optimal performance.
- An anti-vibration system to optimize handling, especially with longer guide bars.
- Weights of 13 pounds and 13.9 pounds, respectively.
- A unique bumper spike design with fewer teeth and wider spacing, helping users maintain control when bucking and felling trees.
- Vertical and horizontal felling marks on the fan housing to provide better directional guidance.
- A low-emissions engine that spells fuel efficiency, so users can spend less time (and money) refueling.
- A slim sprocket cover to reduce weight and woodchip clogging.
- An Ematic oil pump that, when combined with an OILOMATIC saw chain, provides maximum lubrication, longer wear and up to 50 percent less oil consumption.
- Easy maintenance access with cover screws that unlock with just a quarter-turn rotation, making it easy to remove the engine cover to perform routine tasks, such as spark plug replacement and cylinder cleaning.
- A side-access chain tensioner to conveniently tighten the chain on the guide bar.
- A wrap handle on the MS 462 R C-M, allowing the chain saw to be used in multiple positions for felling or limbing, while hands stay in the proper position.
- A toolless fuel and oil filter cap to make refueling and adding oil easy.
