Poulan Pro says its two new backpack blowers, the PB48BT and PP46BT, are ideal for year-round cleanup. Ergonomically designed for comfort and reduced fatigue, the company says these backpack blowers are a good choice for homeowners and small business owners with half-acre yards and larger.
Key features include:
- Powerful two-cycle engines
- Airspeeds up to 220 mph
- Airflow up to 490 cfm
- Ergonomic design with heavy-duty frame
- Soft-grip throttle/handle
- Large, adjustable shoulder straps
- Padded, load-reducing harness for enhanced comfort, minimal strain and reduced fatigue
- Intuitive, easy-to-use, easy-to-reach controls
- Cruise control and variable speed control for simple operation and precise operator control
“Backpack blowers are a must-have for homeowners with large yards or long driveways,” said Steve Pawl, vice president of product and brand marketing. “The all-new Poulan Pro backpack blowers are impressive. They’re engineered for ultimate comfort, with the weight supported by the user’s back and shoulders, rather than arms, lessening user fatigue. Backpack blowers might require a larger investment, but they pack a lot more punch than handheld blowers, and nothing can speed up outdoor clean-up tasks like a backpack blower.”
Poulan Pro is part of the Husqvarna Group family of brands.
