Overview
A two-stroke engine and an efficient fan design drive the airflow on this Husqvarna backpack blower, which carries a larger fuel tank than earlier models. A ventilated harness and a padded hip belt spread the load across the back and hips.
Big airflow and a bigger tank mean fewer refueling stops on large jobs, and the harness helps over long shifts. The drawback is the nature of a gas backpack: weight on the body, engine noise and fuel to mix.
Who it's for
A crew or serious property owner moving leaves, clippings and heavy debris over long periods. Homeowners with a small lawn, or buyers wanting low noise and no fuel mixing, will find it more than they need.
Pros and cons
- Very high airflow and speed
- Ventilated harness with padded hip belt
- Larger fuel tank for long jobs
- Heavy on the back
- Fuel mixing required for a 2-cycle engine
- Loud compared with battery tools
Performance notes
Airflow volume moves bulk debris while the high air speed lifts matted leaves. The engine drives a fan, and the backpack layout puts the weight on the hips instead of the arms. A bigger tank stretches the time between fills.
