Model EBZ8000 moves 943 c.f.m. of air at speeds up to 203 m.p.h. Runs on 4.6-hp., 2-cycle engine. Meets current environmental standards, without containing catalytic converter. Built-in FreeFlow system protects blower components from leaves and other debris. In addition, 2-stage air cleaner protects engine from dust and dirt, preventing overheating and piston seizure. Overall weight is about 25 lbs. For operator comfort, ergonomic design includes lumbar support, air-cooling features, wide straps, left- or right-hand throttle, and waist belt.
