FOR MORE PLEASANT WORK. Vibrations can occur when you put your power tools through their paces, and these are particularly noticeable in the grip area. The buffer and spring elements of the STIHL anti-vibration system reduce the transmission of vibrations to the handle area and therefore to your body. The result is that your power tool is more comfortable to hold and your work is much less tiring.

Features
The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.
The compact, ergonomic design provides more comfortable use.
Housings are lightweight, withstand greater impact, and are corrosion-resistant.
A powerful low exhaust emission engine saves users fuel and operating costs without losing the power they count on to get the job done.
The purge pump primer feature enables the user to prime the carburetor with fuel, enabling easier starting. The purge pump primer is designed in a way that the operator cannot flood the machine by priming the carburetor too many times. Flooding the engine is still possible if the choke is not removed after the engine fires.
The ElastoStart™ starter handle is an exclusive feature of STIHL. It is a starting grip with a built-in shock absorber that helps reduce the effort when pulling on the starter cord. The ElastoStart™ starter grip noticeably reduces the sudden peak forces (compression) normally felt during cranking. The forces which occur at the grip after the first compression stroke are smoothed out.
Saves the user time and reduces the chance of flooding the engine when starting.
This handle design provides a secure and comfortable grip.
The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button or lever. When the engine is off, the throttle lock automatically returns to the “start” setting. Your power tool will be ready to be started when you’re ready to get back to work.
This powerful blower delivers the fuel economy and operator comfort that professionals need for tough cleanup tasks.
The STIHL BR 430 is built for clearing large areas of leaves, grass clippings, hedge trimmings and dirt with the power and efficiency professionals need. Its pro-sized 57.5 oz. fuel tank and fuel-efficient engine help reduce the need for frequent refueling, while the low exhaust emission engine helps reduce fuel use and operating costs without sacrificing the power needed to get the job done.
The BR 430 also gives you the control to keep a steady pace through the work. Its single-hand multi-function handle keeps essential controls within easy reach, while the throttle trigger lock lets you set and maintain your desired output level. When you need to stop, the built-in stop switch makes shutdown simple and automatically returns the throttle lock to the start position.
For the longer jobs, the BR 430 is designed with comfort in mind. The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce the transmission of vibrations to the handle and your body, while broad shoulder straps, back padding and a soft rubber grip provide comfortable support. Its compact, ergonomic design brings everything together in a backpack blower that is easy to control and comfortable to use when the cleanup takes more time.
