new blower

[Stubby]

Any one use a husky one?

 

I have the Husky hand held one and the Stihl BG 85 . The Stihl sounds as though it blowing harder than the Husky and the Husky sounds like a bag of nails but just edges it on puff .

Thanks

Witch do you prefer?

Oh I don't mind . Not much in it really . The Stihl has been around longer and the Husky one is supposed to be a bit harder to work on ( though mine as not needed it ) . The Husky one is supposed to have a straighter blow in relation to the handle so as to minimise the twisting moment that is present but not a big deal really ....

Is that the exhaust to the right of the pull cord (from out perspective)?

 

What's that little white grill thing?

Think the " little white grill thing " is a reflection on the shiny new plastic ?

I just got a Stihl blower to replace my Stihl blower.

Haven't used it yet but it's nice and new.

I use the large stihl 4mix and Husqvarna 570BTS. Both machines new replacements after having loads of problems with the older 4mix stihls. The husqs are more powerful and better to use however machines not old enough to test reliability.

We have stihl hand held blowers the older they get the more blow they produce. I replaced 1 old one with 2 new ones. The 2 new ones did not have the power of the old one which was about 8 years old. Out of the 2 new ones 1 got used more and is now more power full than the other new 1. hand held are ok for nice dry small amounts of blowing but once you use a big back pack the hand helds become redundant.
