Leaf blower STIGA BL 980 R

STIGA PETROL-ENGINE LEAF BLOWER BL 980 R is a powerful backpack leaf blower for even the most demanding tasks.

The BL 980 R leaf blower is an Expert-class product intended primarily for professional work. The powerful 75.6 cm³ (3.1 kW) petrol engine ensures high performance and is suitable for maintaining large areas. Thanks to AutoChoke system, starting the leaf blower is quick and easy. The maximum air volume is 25 m³/min and the air speed up to 100 m/s. The large fuel tank (2.1 litres) in the lower part of the blower allows longer working times. The blower hose has a flexible rubber section, which gives the hose better mobility when directing the air flow. Manoeuvrability is further improved by an adjustable handle attached to the hose, with the necessary control buttons integrated into it. The quick-release filter cover allows quick and easy access to the leaf blower's air filter. Soft padded shoulder straps and a strap fastening at the waist help distribute the weight of the machine more evenly, so it does not put excessive strain on your shoulders, back and arms. This makes working with the machine safe and comfortable even during longer working sessions.
