Automatic Engine Adjustment
STIHL M-Tronic automatically adjusts to changes in elevation, temperature, air filter cleanliness, fuel quality, and octane level.

IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb carburetor maintains consistent engine speed as the air filter loads up, extending time between service.

25.4-Ounce Fuel Tank
A 25.4-ounce fuel tank keeps you working longer between fill-ups.

String Head or Blade Attachment

Beyond Standard String Trimming
With blade attachment options, the FS 460 C-EM tackles saplings and dense brush that standard trimmers can’t touch.

Heavier-duty attachments make quick work of overgrown fence lines, ditch banks, and field edges.
