2016 Stihl® TS 420 STIHL Cutquik®

The TS 420 is so popular, it could possibly be called “the standard” to which other cut-off machines are compared. Users like it because it is compact, lightweight, reliable and proves itself day in and day out, all day long. The TS 420 features all the high-performance features of the TS 410 – including an X2 air filtration system for a clean and smooth-running engine and virtually maintenance-free filters. With the added benefit of a 14” cutting wheel, it will handle cuts up to 4.9 inches in depth. This cut-off machine backs up its larger cutting capacity with a ton of usability features. .

• Reduced-Emission Engine Technology - Caring for Nature

The STIHL Inc. “Caring for Nature” seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines “low exhaust emissions” as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.

• IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor

The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor is designed to automatically adjust the air/fuel ratio when the air filter becomes restricted or partially clogged and maintains the engine’s correct RPM. IntelliCarb™ uses air from the clean side of the air filter to control the diaphragm and flow of fuel. As the air filter becomes dirty and less air is available for the carburetor, the IntelliCarb™ system adjusts the fuel flow to compensate for the decrease in air flow. This is in contrast to typical carburetors that utilize this air from the “dirty” side of the air box.

• X2 Air Filtration System

The X2 Air Filtration System revolutionizes the cut-off machine industry by allowing air filters to last up to a year, based on cutting conditions. Outside air enters the system in a swirling motion, removing 80% of dust particles. This pre-cleaned air is then routed through the primary and secondary air filters before being sent into the engine. The X2 Air Filtration System is virtually maintenance free and maintains an incredible 99.96% cleaning efficiency.

• Semi-Automatic Belt Tensioning

With consistent, semi-automatic re-tensioning, this feature increases the service life of the belts and shaft bearings.

• Anti-Vibration System

STIHL has developed a system for minimizing the vibration levels of handheld outdoor power equipment. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.

• Ergonomic Grip

The ergonomic top-handle bar design provides an optimal comfortable grip in any working position

• Replaceable "In Tank" Fuel Filter lowers cost and is easy to maintain.

• Heavy-Duty Air Filtration System. The TS 410, TS 420, TS500i, TS 700 and TS 800 feature the X2. The X2 air filter system uses centrifugal force to separate large dirt particles before they come in contact with the air filter.

• Strategically Placed Air Intake rear placements helps filter stay cleaner longer.

• Upright and Enlarged Fuel Port for easy fueling.

• Bayonet-Style Fuel Cap with retainer for easy use, even with gloves on.

• Throttle Trigger Lockout must be depressed before the trigger can be activated

• Protected Throttle Trigger helps prevent damage.

• On/Off Switch is conveniently located on top of handle and recessed to prevent accidental shutdown.

• Spark Plug is protected yet easy to change.

• High-Tech Polymer Housings are lightweight and corrosion-resistant.
