STIHL Launches The First 12” Cut-Off Saw With


Electronic Fuel Injection The world’s best-selling cut-off saw brand, STIHL is revolutionising the sector once again with the world’s first 12” cut-off saw with electronic fuel injection: the STIHL TS 480i available now. The STIHL TS 480i attracted strong interest from visitors to the Executive Hire Show where it featured as one of the products on the show’s Innovation Trail. STIHL launched the world’s first ever handheld power tool to


feature electronic fuel injection in 2012, and the 14” TS 500i cut-off saw set the new technological standard for construction power tools. Now that technology is also powering Britain’s most popular cut-off saw format, and the new STIHL TS 480i is the most advanced ever 12” model – available now. The new TS 480i may look and indeed feel like the popular


STIHL TS 410, with the same familiar balance and trusted design, however significant differences become apparent the moment you work with the new cut-off saw. For a start, advanced STIHL Injection technology means there is no more choke or fiddling between warm and cold starts, as the system automatically senses the engine state and adjusts delivery of fuel to match. In practice that means the new cut-off saw start- up involves just three simple steps : purge the fuel primer, flick the ‘on’ switch, pull on the starter cord to fire up and go. Users will then notice the immediate pick-up and very good acceleration of the engine, so that as soon as it fires, it is ready to work. Another great benefit that users will find is the new STIHL TS 480i’s superb cutting power. Cutting performance is in fact, a full 20% greater than the already


impressive and legendary STIHL TS 410/410A cut-off saws. With cuts being made more swiftly it is easy to increase productivity at work, whilst running costs can be reduced as more cuts can be achieved using the same volume of fuel. A more (or should that be ‘less’) noticeable benefit of the new cut-off saw, and another positive outcome of the new engine technology, is the TS 480i’s minimal


vibrations. As low as 2.2m/s2 in fact, which means users can work comfortably throughout an 8–hour day within EU Vibration guidelines. Whilst the new cut-off saw may be packed with new technology, it has been set in the familiar compact and well-balanced design of STIHL’s best-selling models. Impressively the technology adds just a mere one gramme of weight compared to the TS 410A model. More familiar features include electronic water control for easy dust suppression at the touch of a button, plus the efficient STIHL long-life air filter system with cyclonic pre-filtration, which minimises user maintenance.
