The world's first lithium-ion, commercial-grade cut-off machine is lightweight, easy to handle, and gets the job done fast.

Features

Sealed Control Unit
Magnesium Guard
Spindle Locking Mechanism
Water Connection and Shut-Off Valve

STIHL introduces another world’s first—a cut-off machine powered by 36-volt lithium-ion battery technology. The TSA 230 STIHL Cutquik® cut-off machine starts instantly and changes the game for the jobsite, delivering maneuverability and solid cutting performance in a lightweight, compact package. Its onboard water control helps suppress dust while a toolless wheel lock prevents wheel rotation when removing the wheel attachment bolt. Because it is battery powered, there is no air filter to maintain. The TSA 230 not only provides great value—priced below its gasoline-powered counterparts—but this STIHL Cutquik® also offers groundbreaking innovation grounded in quality engineering.

Run time may vary based on battery type, charge level and capacity, model, operating style, and conditions. Batteries and chargers can be purchased separately or as a combined set with tool.
