- Anti-Vibration System: STIHL has engineered a system to minimize vibration levels in handheld outdoor power equipment, significantly reducing operator fatigue and enhancing the overall comfort of use.
- Ematic Lubrication System: Designed to work seamlessly with STIHL OILOMATIC® saw chain, the Ematic™ guide bar system delivers precise lubrication, reducing oil consumption. It achieves this by employing strategically positioned ramps in the guide bar rail, effectively directing lubrication to the sliding surfaces of the bar, chain links, rivets, and driver holes, potentially reducing bar oil consumption by up to 50%.
- Side Access Chain Tensioner: This convenient feature allows users to adjust the saw chain with a bar wrench effortlessly, a notable improvement over the traditional location of the guide bar adjustment screw.
- Stihl Quickstop: A safety feature equipped in STIHL chainsaws, the Quickstop® chain brake, is designed to stop chain rotation in response to activation by the operator's hand or inertia. It rapidly halts the chain's movement in various working positions, significantly enhancing safety.
- Master Control Lever: A user-friendly single lever operates the choke, starting throttle lock, and on-off switch. It is important to note that the throttle trigger must be pulled before moving the Master Control Lever™ to the choke position.
- Winter/Summer Shutter: This clever shutter allows the carburetor to operate optimally throughout the year, preventing carburetor icing when operating in temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
- Reduced-Emission Engine Technology – Caring for Nature: The "Caring for Nature" seal from STIHL Inc. identifies their commitment to environmentally-conscious powered products. These products produce zero or low exhaust emissions, exceeding EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
- Decompression Valve: The decompression valve, also known as 'deco' or 'deco valve', releases compression within the cylinder during startup, making it easier to pull the starter rope. It is manually opened and automatically closes when the engine ignites.
- Stihl Elastostart: This exclusive feature, the ElastoStart™ starter handle, includes a built-in shock absorber that minimizes the effort required for pulling the starter cord. It notably reduces the abrupt peak forces, typically associated with compression, experienced during cranking.
- Adjustable Automatic Oiler: Offering user-adjustable lubrication settings for the guide bar and saw chain, catering to different bar lengths and cutting conditions.
- Pre-Separation Air Filtration System: This innovative technology enhances the engine's filter system, effectively doubling the time between air filter cleanings. By utilizing centrifugal force, heavier dirt particles are separated from incoming air before reaching the air filter. This pre-separation process results in less dirt accumulation in the air filter, leading to reduced cleaning and maintenance requirements.
- Stihl M-Tronic: The MS 462 R C-M features M-Tronic™ (M), an advanced Intelligent Engine Management system. It eliminates the need for low and high-speed carburetor adjustment screws by autonomously compensating for variations such as dirty air filters and changes in elevation and fuel quality, ensuring consistent optimal engine power under all conditions.
- Wrap Handle Version (R): This particular version incorporates a wrap handle for enhanced control and comfort during use.
