Funny but in thought the Husky 550 & 562 were ugly like someone had squished the front of the saw, the first time I saw them.
New MS462 C-M...

Aw, now, you know it's what's inside that counts. Ugly saws need love too!
They were/are still funky looking.
This is the first video I've seen of the new MS462C-M. It almost sounds like a ported saw!

So, it's not in Stihl's website yet and I can't find any references to the saw in English except here or on the other forum, is there any idea when weel see it here?

I hope the filtration is as good or better than the 441.
or G&O which would = that weight
Front handle bar got a a lot more vib than I would have hoped. Back is very low. Not sure that the extra .2 KG is? Extra port?
(About 5 oz) as they had 7.6 as a weigh also.
*edit
Saw is a lot lighter weigh
Stihl.com has the 461R at 7.2 kg
and the other at 6.8 kg
*Without gas oil & bar
22×8 = 1.76 lb less? 13.2 LB
The 461 is rated 4 /3.8 vibrations
Wasn't the 462 at 5.7 left hand.
Ouch!!!!
That ought to feel nice coming on and off the trigger 2000 times a day
Open up them pipes!!!
*Edit sorry....the chart vibrations, metres per second squared (m/s 2)
reads 4.7 (front handle) m/s2 and NOT 5.7 as I posted above.

I've really never thought of chainsaws as good looking or ugly. Just kind of thought of them as a tool. Kind of like a hammer or a crescent wrench.
Well.......at least I did before I became a member of this forum.

Stihl working hard

Has anyone heard of a release date for the 462 yet

The little birds in the trees are saying this Fall.
There better be some good parts interchangeability between models like in the past. I don't want to have to stock a dozen different air filters in my shop.
Thank You ... nice find!
