    Features

    The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.

    RELIABLE WORK WITH BEST PERFORMANCE. With the STIHL M-Tronic, you have the best performance from your implement right from the start. The fully electronic engine management regulates the ignition point and fuel metering in every work situation, taking into account external conditions such as temperature, altitude and fuel quality.
    STIHL M-TRONIC
    EFFORTLESS STARTING. STIHL Easy2start saves you energy when starting your power tools. A smooth and even pull on the starter cord is all that’s needed. The required speed on the starter cord is significantly reduced, and the engine starts quickly and reliably even with a slow pull. An additional spring between the crankshaft and the starter cord roll makes this easier.
    STIHL Easy2start
    The STIHL 2-MIX engine is both powerful and economical. Separating the exhaust emissions from the unburnt gas minimises scavenging losses, and therefore increases the power output while reducing consumption.<br /><br />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.

    All the engine controls are at your fingertips, allowing easy and safe operation.
    SINGLE-HANDED MULTI-FUNCTION HANDLE
    EFFORTLESS MOWING OF LARGE AREAS. The ergonomic bike handle helps you mow large areas quickly and effortlessly, as this handle supports a natural brushcutter movement. The bike handle is easy to adjust and secure.
    ERGONOMIC BIKE HANDLE
    Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.
    STIHL ANTI-VIBRATION SYSTEM
    SET THE BIKE HANDLE POSITION. You can individually adjust the ergonomic bike handle (mowing handle) using the central clamping device. Thanks to the tool-free handle adjustment, you do not need any tools for this. The bike handle can be rotated 90 degrees for transport and space-saving storage.
    TOOL-FREE HANDLE ADJUSTMENT
    RESTART WORK QUICKLY. With the stop button, you can switch off your power tool quickly and easily for a short break, for example. As the button springs back to its original position after actuation, the engine is immediately ready to start again. This provides more comfort after breaks and increases your work efficiency.

    Long shaft for particularly comfortable and ergonomic working

    With a shaft length of 185 cm, the STIHL FS 461 C-EM L petrol-driven clearing saw is ideal for particularly tall professionals in landscape maintenance, agriculture and municipal operations. This means that you can even handle extended mowing operations on difficult terrain ergonomically and with increased reach, for example when thinning and clearing tough, matted grass and scrub. The STIHL FS 461 C-EM L petrol-driven clearing saw efficiently supports you in demanding, large-area mowing work.

    Thanks to the extremely powerful yet economical STIHL 2-MIX engine and the particularly large mowing circle diameter of 520 mm you can complete upcoming tasks more quickly. Even starting is easier, as the petrol-driven brushcutter features STIHL ErgoStart. STIHL M-Tronic 3.0 offers optimum engine performance and constant maximum engine speed.

    The ergonomic bike handle (mowing handle) contributes to a high level of operating comfort with the STIHL FS 461 C-EM L by supporting a natural scything movement when mowing with the brushcutter. At the same time, the innovative ADVANCE Grip handle element offers a highly ergonomic and intuitive working experience. For long periods of use, the STIHL double shoulder  harness supplied as standard makes working with the STIHL FS 461 C-EM L brushcutter even easier. 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 with just one hand. Thanks to the stop button, you can resume work quickly and without switching after a break.

    You can equip the petrol-driven STIHL FS 461 C-EM L with various cutting tools : with a grass-cutting blade, a shredder blade, a circular saw blade or with various mowing heads. The brushcutter is equipped with the STIHL 300-3 brush knife as standard. The FS 461 C-EM L brushcutter is equipped with a large mowing guard to protect you from flying cuttings and small stones.
