STIHL FS 460 Professional Clearing Saw (45.6cc) w/ ErgoStart

The FS 460 C-EM K petrol-driven clearing saw is ideal for professionals wanting to carry out clearing work in landscape maintenance, forestry and municipal settings. Thanks to the short shaft, you can clear tight spaces efficiently and comfortably. Equipped as standard with the STIHL 225-24 circular saw blade, this saw enables you to effectively remove shrubs, bushes and other overgrown areas. The powerful and economical STIHL 2-MIX engine ensures high, consistent performance while working. The STIHL FS 460 C-EM K is equipped with STIHL ErgoStart to make starting easier. The STIHL M-Tronic fully electronic engine control offers you optimum engine performance and a constant maximum engine speed. The ergonomic bike handle (mowing handle) helps you to work comfortably with your FS 460 C-EM K petrol clearing saw, supporting natural brush cutting movement when mowing with a clearing saw. The STIHL anti-vibration system relieves strain on your muscles and joints by reducing vibrations while working. The single-handed multi-function handle also makes your work easier, as the engine can be operated entirely with just one hand. The stop button, which is also integrated into the handle, allows you to resume your work quickly after a break without switching gears. You can equip the STIHL FS 460 C-EM K petrol clearing saw with various compatible cutting tools to suit the task, such as with a grass cutting blade, shredder blade or brush knife to equip the machine for the respective task.

• Ergonomic bike handle
• STIHL ErgoStart (FT) - STIHL ErgoStart cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force. A coil spring between the starter cord and the crankshaft smoothes out force peaks, making them virtually undetectable through the cord itself.
• STIHL 2-MIX-Engine - 2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions.
• STIHL M-TRONIC - RELIABLE WORK WITH THE BEST PERFORMANCE. With STIHL M-Tronic, you’ll have the best performance from your work tool from the outset. Fully electronic engine management regulates the ignition timing and fuel metering in all work situations, taking into account external conditions such as temperature, altitude and fuel quality.
• GEAR ANGLE - FOR MORE COMFORT WHEN SAWING. The new 25° gear angle is optimised for sawing with short-shaft clearing saws. It means you can comfortably saw thinner logs, for example in young stock maintenance.
• Multi-function control handle - Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator's hand never leaves the handle.
• ADVANCE forestry harness - Great freedom of movement thanks to the freely suspended leg protection. Extremely ergonomic for forestry applications involving circular saw blades. Very light. Tool bag also available.
• Tool free handle adjustment - The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated by 90°.
• 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.
• Manual fuel pump (Purger) - A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required following extended breaks in operations.
• Goggles - It is important to protect your eyes from flying particles and harmful UV radiation. Therefore a pair of safety goggles/glasses are supplied with the the machine. Note: Additional face protection must be worn when working with brushcutters.
• LARGE FUEL TANK - FOR LONGER WORKING INTERVALS. The large fuel tank allows you to work longer without having to refuel. Thanks to its transparent material, you can check the fill level of your tank quickly and easily. The filler cap is firmly attached so that you cannot lose it.
• STIHL 4-point anti-vibration system - In STIHL brushcutters, steel springs act as anti-vibration elements to reduce the transmission of vibrations caused by the motor and rotary cutter. The handles therefore have extremely low vibration and the devices is easy to guide.
