2023 Stihl Emergency services saw MS 460 R MS 462 C-M R

DESCRIPTION:

Powerful 4.4kW high power saw with 2-MIX engine. Perfectly suited to the toughest jobs for fire services, emergency services and technical assistance teams, with extremely cut-resistant material. Additional handle for quick and easy adjustment of cutting depth; large starter grip. Special Rapid Duro R saw chain with plating made from impact-resistant carbide blades. STIHL M-Tronic with calibration function guarantees optimal engine performance and easy starting at all times. Controlled-delivery high-performance oil pump for high pumping capacity, HD2 filter with radial seal, tool-free fuel caps for simple, safe refuelling.

Features may include:

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

• The two-stroke engine with STIHL 2-MIX technology saves up to 20 % of fuel and reduces emissions by up to 70 % compared to STIHL 2-stroke engines of the same performance class without 2-MIX technology.

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.

Side-mounted chain tensioning

• Side-mounted chain tensioning makes it easy to tension the chain safely.

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

• The large starter grip ensures safe, easy starting.

Compensator

• This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the quantity of air passing through the air filter. This keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.

Decompression valve

• The decompression valve is part of the easy starting system. The valve should be pressed before starting to reduce the compression pressure when starting, as well as reducing the effort needed to pull the starter rope. The decompression valve is semi-automatic; it must be pressed manually before starting, but then closes automatically.

STIHL anti-vibration system

• Precisely calculated buffer zones minimise the transfer of engine and saw chain vibrations to the front and rear handles. The chainsaw therefore runs noticeably smoother. This allows the user to save their strength and work longer.

Optimised sprocket cover

• The flatter, narrower sprocket cover with integrated slide rails reduces effort when pruning and ensures outstanding chip removal.

Stop button function

• After the machine is turned off, the control lever immediately moves back into the operating position. This allows a warm machine to be restarted again immediately.

Captive nuts

• When changing the cutting attachment, you will not risk losing the nuts on the sprocket. The MS 261 is the first STIHL chainsaw to be equipped with the captive nuts. A great advantage for all users.

Tool free fuel caps

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