Stihl TS 800 Commercial Construction Cutoff Saw with 16in Blade - STI-TS800-16
The STIHL TS 800 is a professional construction cutoff saw designed to handle the toughest cutting applications. This powerful, handheld cut-off machine features a 16in cutting wheel, the largest size available in a handheld design, making it an excellent alternative to conventional walk-behind machines. With its deep cutting capability and optional STIHL Cutquik Cart, the TS 800 can be used for both handheld and long, straight, controlled cuts.
The TS 800 is built for professionals who need to cut through asphalt, concrete, rebar, iron, and steel with ease. It boasts a magnesium guard that makes the machine 0.7lb lighter than the previous model and includes an ergonomic design with a five-point advanced vibration control system to maximize comfort and reduce fatigue.
Features
- Ergonomic grip designed for comfort and reduced fatigue
- Semi-automatic belt tensioning ensures proper belt tension without manual adjustment
- Anti-vibration system with a five-point vibration control system built into the handle for maximum comfort
- Bayonet-style filler cap for easy and convenient fuel filling
- Decompression valve reduces the effort needed to pull the starter rope
- Reduced emissions engine technology produces zero or low exhaust emissions, cleaner than EPA and/or CARB standards
- Optional Cutquik Cart allows for long, straight, controlled cuts with the help of a mounted water tank, guide wheel, and depth gauge wheel

What our Experts Think
- The STIHL TS 800 is a heavy-duty professional cut-off saw (demo saw) designed for cutting concrete, asphalt, steel, and masonry in construction environments.
- Powered by a 98.5 cc high-output engine (~6.7–6.8 bhp), it delivers extreme cutting force for demanding site work.
- Equipped with a 16-inch (400 mm) cutting wheel, it offers the largest handheld cutting capacity in STIHL’s lineup for deep, efficient cuts.
- Capable of cutting up to ~5.6 inches (145 mm) depth, making it suitable for expansion joints, reinforced concrete, and thick structural materials.
- Designed for versatility: can be used handheld or mounted on a guide cart for long, straight precision cuts in flooring and roadwork applications.
- Features advanced anti-vibration system + ergonomic handles, improving control and reducing operator fatigue during extended demolition work.
- Includes magnesium guard construction and optimized airflow/filtration system, improving durability and reducing maintenance in harsh jobsite conditions.
- Ideal for professional contractors, road crews, and construction teams needing maximum cutting power for reinforced materials and continuous heavy-duty use.
- A true flagship demolition tool that prioritizes raw cutting power, depth capacity, and jobsite durability over portability or convenience.

Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after every use: Remove concrete dust, metal particles, and debris from air filter housing, belt guard, and cutting arm using a brush or compressed air.
-
Air filter care: Clean or replace frequently—fine dust from concrete work can quickly reduce engine performance.
-
Cutting wheel inspection: Check diamond blade or abrasive wheel for cracks, wear, and imbalance; replace if damaged or cutting becomes uneven.
-
Water system (if used): Flush and clean water connections to prevent clogging and mineral buildup.
-
Fuel system care: Use fresh fuel mix only; avoid stale fuel and drain tank for long-term storage.
-
Spark plug check: Inspect regularly for carbon buildup and replace if starting becomes difficult or power drops.
-
Drive belt inspection: Check belt tension and condition; replace if worn or slipping during heavy cutting.
-
Cooling system: Keep engine fins and air intake clear of concrete dust to prevent overheating.
-
Fastener check: Tighten blade guard, housing screws, and mounting points due to high vibration during operation.
-
Storage: Clean thoroughly, remove blade if required, and store in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
