Stihl BR 430 Backpack Blower

This powerful Stihl BR 430 blower delivers the fuel economy and operator comfort professionals need for challenging cleanup tasks.

The powerful engine of the Stihl BR 430 Backpack Blower features advanced engine technology, which provides cleaner emissions and better fuel economy than standard 2-stroke engines. Also, an advanced anti-vibration system reduces vibration levels for extended professional use. A large fuel tank provides longer run times between refueling, plus back padding, broad shoulder straps, and a rubberized grip provide support and comfort for the user.

Model Features

• Made in America
  Most STIHL products sold in America are made in America using U.S. and foreign materials.
• Throttle Trigger Lock with Built-In Momentary Stop Switch
  The built-in stop switch allows the user to turn off the engine with a simple press of the button or lever. The throttle lock automatically returns to the “start” setting when the engine is off. Your power tool will be ready to start when you’re prepared to return to work.
• Purge Pump Primer
  The purge pump primer feature enables the user to prime the carburetor with fuel, enabling easier starting. We designed the purge pump primer so the operator cannot repeatedly flood the machine by priming the carburetor. You will flood the engine if the choke is not removed after the engine fires.
• Multi-Function Control Handle
  Easy access to all controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks, so the operator’s hand never has to leave the handle.
• Anti-Vibration System
  The STIHL anti-vibration system helps reduce operator fatigue and provides a more comfortable working experience.
• STIHL ElastoStart™
  The ElastoStart™ starter handle is an exclusive STIHL feature. 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) usually felt during cranking. The forces at the grip after the first compression stroke are smoothed out.
