Diamond cut-off chain
Thanks to the pre-sharpened diamond segments on every chain link, the 36 GBM cut-off chain in the STIHL GS 461 ensures top performance – without the need to pre-sharpen the segments. The chain delivers top performance from the very first cut, for quick and smooth cutting.
Rollomatic G guide bar
This guide bar was designed especially for the GS 461 and features water channels. Even the sprocket nose is washed with water, however thanks to the front-facing positioning of the nozzles in the sprocket cover, the operator doesn’t get wet when the tool is in use.
STIHL 2-MIX Engine
The STIHL GS 461 features a modern, low-emission STIHL 2-MIX engine. Depending on how the machine is used, 2-MIX engines consume up to 20% less fuel compared to regular STIHL 2-stroke engines. The 2-MIX engine also delivers great performance with high torque as well as reducing toxic emissions.
A long-life air filter system
The long-life air filter system with HD2 filter and additional filter catches even the finest particles and prevents dust from entering the tool. It protects the engine against wear so that the tool requires only infrequent servicing.
Anti-vibration system
The STIHL anti-vibration system reduces the transmission of engine vibrations. This, therefore, reduces the strain on your back muscles. This system ensures a marked reduction in vibrations from the engine and working tools that would otherwise be felt through the handles.
