Featuring a 28cc petrol engine with an integral Zama C1Q carburettor, this Husqvarna hand-held blower - vac delivers a maximum power speed of 8000rpm. Ideal for the home-user, the machine is well balanced and a doddle to manouevre due to the in-line nozzle outlet that serves a power output of 0.8kw (1.1hp) and an air-flow of 171mph (76m/s). The unit incorporates an adjustable blow-tube length that assists the operator ito reach difficult places, and has an on-board auto return stop switch that automatically resets to the on position for hassle-free starting. Ensuring reliable service, the unit has been designed with SmartStart®™ technology that considerably reduces the resistance in the starter cord by up to 40%. Weighing in at just 4.3kg (9.6lbs), the machine utilises an integral cruise-control switch that allows the fan speed to be preset for easier handling. In addition, the blower can be converted into a vacuum machine to collect garden debris into an optional bag. Whilst in this mode, the unit utilises integral mulching knives that reduces the material by a 16:1 ratio so increasing the bag capacity.
