NEW STIHL MS 462 C-M chainsaw for Tony

[@tassiehandyman3090]

I have had a 362 C-M for, maybe, 2 years, I think. Smoothest running saw I've ever owned. The computer controlled ignition adapts on the fly seamlessly. Beautiful piece of kit. 👍

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, the auto tuning on new saws is great!

[@manuelve1998]

I’ll second that! Love mine!

[@robertward553]

Being an ex surveyor in Washington State, only used saws when working in the woods, which was a lot. We had Stihls, I always grabbed a 041, this was the early 80's. Company went t's up and I kept that saw, had until the early 2000's, great saw. Orange and white looks better than the ones that have to much orange.

[@InTheWoodyard]

They make good stuff!

[@nickwallace9955]

I bought a Ms462C summer of 2021, absolutely love it, the anti vibe handles make it so smooth to run and the operator could run it all day long with out getting fatigued. 👌

[@InTheWoodyard]

Great to hear! I too like it a lot!

[@matthewnasci2646]

Thanks chris for the tour of the stihl store. I like to shop vicariously because if I go in person I get myself in trouble with my credit card.

[@InTheWoodyard]

You and me both!

[@mattbrown8299]

I just purchased the ms462c-m a couple of months ago and love it. I use a 25" bar mostly, but go with a 32" bar when needed for the bigger rounds. The powerhead is so light it's hard to believe the saw is as fast as it is. It handles the 32" bar with no problem at all, but I do prefer the smaller bars as they are lighter and less work for the motor. The new tech in these saws are extremely helpful too. Enjoy guys.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Right on, they are great saws!

[@franknania2950]

Hi Chris Loved this old video with Tony You convinced me to get the stihl 462CM. Thank you Love your videos

[@InTheWoodyard]

That is a nice saw!

[@wadepennington1733]

Tony is going to love that 462. It is light for its size and packs a good amount of power too. I bought mine a few months ago and have ran almost 10 tanks of fuel through it and so far I love it! It has really really good throttle response and it very quick and snappy. Congrats to Tony on the saw and happy cutting! GNI

I've had my 462CM for 3 years now. It is my favorite saw. Power to weight ratio is absolutely crazy. I've been running a 28-in bar on it, but I recently put the 24 inch bar on. Even better! Just picked up a 661 CM. I was actually looking for the husky 592, but nothing was available. So I stayed with my orange

We have a few weed whackers, we bought a new one and after a few tanks I had a hard time starting it. I pulled till my arm was just so tired I threw that as far as I could. Swore I would never buy a gas powered one again. I got a battery operated one, and it was the best thing I did. It got the name Greta. Then this Christmas the wife wanted a chain saw for trimming trees so I got one that would also suit me LOL and I got her a battery operated one also. I tried it out and I like it for how little I have used it for.

Whatever the subject, Tony nails it! I've used the Stihl top handle, but I'd like to recommend the Red Max and the Echo. They seem more compact and more ergonomic when you're in the middle of brushy tree tops. Used the Red Max all day long when the temp. was 92F. No trouble! Much easier and more productive than my 028. Haven't used the Echo much yet, but it seems almost as fast and handy as a top handle should be. Always good to see Tony in the vids. Calm, well informed, good humor - Tony's da' man!! Chris knows!

@@man9170 If the higher price of the 500i is doable for your budget, that’d be my pick. Both are outstanding saws. I’d say the 500i has quicker throttle response and a bit more top end torque that gives it an edge in bigger diameter hardwoods or felling larger diameter trees. I run 28” light bars on my saws and feel you can’t go wrong with either one. Hope that helps you out.

I have the 220 battery saw with 14 and 16 inch bars. Like Tony was saying, the smaller saw for liming, marking, and trimming is very nice. Then I have the 500 w/ 25 inch bar for other cutting. I end up using the battery saw as much as I can because it’s so light and lower maintenance. Yeah, the battery setup is an all in thing. Also have a blower that uses the same battery. One battery charge lasts about as long as a tank of gas for the saw. Good stuff! So many options and brands and all. Ufdah, long comment. Sorry. ;)

You got a bigger saw, Tony got a smaller saw. His advice on the top handle limb saw is what I suggest also although mine is a pretty old Dolmar 4510. I know you don't do a lot of limb trimming, but the top handle is easily controlled when you wade into a downed tree and frees up one hand to pull/push limbs away without losing control of the saw. I'm not a fan yet of the battery saws, I don't feel like emissions will kill me and the trees don't care either. GNI

[@InTheWoodyard]

Ask the dealer for the right answer.

[@inharmonywithearth9982]

The ms 462 has the traditional carburetor that can be quickly adjusted with hand tools and is durable and easy to fix. The ms 462 CM has all the electrical gadgets and circuit boards and requires a specialized stihl computer technician to find out what needs replacement . As far as I've researched anyway. You wont see the ms 462 often it is a rare one. I think they made them recently because the Ukraine chip manufacturers went out of business due to the war. They have found another place to make chips so the CM is back for good. I got this from reading the arborist forum. I want the traditional carb 462. I have a 25 year old stihl and it works more reliable than my electrical chainsaw.

Stihl battery chainsaws come into their own when you have to get off an ATV or out of a 4wd to constantly cut trees and bushes off the track. It gets tiring pulling the rip cord each time. With the electric Stihl chainsaw you know that when you press the trigger it works. When you cut a 5cm branch off a track and then get back onto/into your conveyance and drive 20 meters around a corner and have to get out again to do the same it gets tiring pulling that ripcord. For forest workers who might cut 50 small branches and trees off a track in a day this is a big deal. A Stihl 200 saw battery will last all day.

Chris and Tony the Husqvarna t540i battery top handle saw is so much better than the Stihl battery saws that are garbage. In fact even the older Husqvarna t536i or t535i are garbage. The t540i or 540i if you want a saw, not top handle, are the only good professional battery saws but they are very pricey at $1100 dollars for the bundle. 2 batteries and a semi-quick charger. The battery lasts a long time so your fear of running out of power is a none issue as you can charge one while using the other. Amazing saws. For you though I would get the 550XP mark II for limping on the ground.

Nice. Looks like my power equipment store 2 miles from home, Littau Power Equipment. There website needs work though.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Power equipment stores are dangerous to the wallet!!

[@matthewmcdonnell2166]

Have you ever thought of adapting your husqvarna saws to use the es light Stihl bars? They are %30 lighter. Buckin billy ray has a video on how to do that.

[@InTheWoodyard]

I just put a HUSQVARNA light bar on my 592, I like it a lot! You will se it soon.

[@waynejohnson9855]

I need to find that video not for the light bar but the stihl bars outlast the husqvarna bars. I have run 300 tanks of gas through my 462 and I’m still using my second bar.

[@hurf7000]

You boys and your toys!!!.......(Thumbs up)

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, just like a couple of 5 year olds!

[@peteysixtyniner]

I am a large man like Tony, what do you recommend for chaps?

[@InTheWoodyard]

Husqvarna full wrap.

[@peteysixtyniner]

Thanks! I am on the fence between a 400c-m or a 562xp mark 2. I usually am a stihl guy but is it worth the extra $300+? I see modern rentals has a 24” light bar for 779. My stihl dealer wants $1150 with light bar. Thoughts?

[@peteysixtyniner]

I went with the husky WOW does it sound awesome and local dealer of modern rentals! Can’t wait to slice some logs!!

[@LeuCustomKnives]

I’ve yet to go into a Stihl dealership and see a ES lightbar hanging on the shelf for sale 😱 and I’ve been to a few 🤣

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yup, all the light bars sell fast!

[@LeBlancfirewood]

Waiting for that pro sizer

[@InTheWoodyard]

Very soon!

[@fricknjeep]

hi there didn't think from all your videos it would ever get hot up there . i have the top saw and love it . i think it would be a good choice , my first one was a 020T it was much better than the 201 , . did you happen to get the price of the Stihl gas . i am having a real hard time getting corn free gas to the point i am out . called local dealer they said 40 dollars . said i didn't need a case he said that was a gallon . guess we are not running a gas saw for a while , next you stop by there take a peak at the price . and get that 201 not the other one , john

[@InTheWoodyard]

I buy corn free premium here for less than $5 a gallon.

[@viorelscrob6391]

How much is costs there 462 cm

[@InTheWoodyard]

I do not know exactly but last i saw $1200-1300ish???

[@littlemechanicshop]

I believe Walker saw shop has 500i I may know a few other places may have one.

[@InTheWoodyard]

Nice!

[@haroldanderson2781]

I can’t believe you didn’t ask the worker about the Stihl curve cut. 😃

[@InTheWoodyard]

I was trying to be nice, I did not want him to cry...HAAAA!

[@mikemccormick3764]

Chris - What’s the name of Tony’s KZbin page ?Thnx…

[@InTheWoodyard]

Tonys Cool Tools

[@laurpaqu]

oh no Chris are you thinking about going to the dark side. I thought you were a Husqvarna man....lol...I'm sure both type have their advantages. Great video my friend.

[@InTheWoodyard]

They both make great stuff!

[@nicholascooper1193]

as a poverty level aspiring wood splitter, I find the "buck a tank full", split those bucks, stack those splits, repeat method the most economical, and it never works the equipment too hard... hardly the most efficient though

[@InTheWoodyard]

Yes! And that way you do not get board of a day long same task and you keep everything nice and tidy!

[@bhall7997]

Local dealer has there chainsaw display near the cash registers a year ago or so there system was down. Couldn't do transactions lol I joked about buying the 500I ... They offered to let me take saw, leave info for them to run later lol

[@InTheWoodyard]

That is a called the puppy dog close, you take it home to see if you like it for a week and see if you like it, they never come back without tears !Ha! He gotcha!

[@JoshChase114]

Bought one two weeks ago and she’s already in the shop 😢. I’ve Owned 4 stihls idk what I did wrong with this one

[@InTheWoodyard]

Sorry to here that. Hopefully it will be healed.

[@carolinafirewood]
