    Stihl BG 56 Handheld Petrol Leaf Blower

    Don’t let garden work be hard work. Ideal for cleaning up leaves and debris on paths or driveways around the home, the new powerful, low emissions Stihl BG 56 C-E handheld petrol leaf blower features STIHL ErgoStart, making starting virtually effortless. Designed with a specialised stop switch and semi-automatic choke lever, the blower automatically resets itself to the run position while helping prevent accidental flooding for smooth starts. Vacuum adaptor kit available as an accessory to convert the Stihl BG 56 C-E handheld petrol leaf blower into a vacuum shredder.

    Reduced-emission engine technology

    This Stihl leaf blower has a 2-stroke engine with stratified charge. A fuel-free layer of air is created between the burned charge in the combustion chamber and the fresh charge in the crankcase, reducing the amount of fuel lost during the charge cycle. This results in more power with a lower weight, up to 20% lower fuel consumption than regular 2-stroke engines and significantly reduced exhaust emissions.

    Manual fuel pump (Purger)

    A small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburettor at the touch of a button. This reduces the number of starting strokes required following extended breaks in operations.

    STIHL ErgoStart (E)

    A genuine advance in easy starting. STIHL ErgoStart (E) cuts the effort required to start the tool by half, while the starter cord can be pulled at just one third of the normal force. All it takes is 2 fingers and a gentle pull action.

    Multi-function control handle

    Easy, comfortable thumb-operated control means the operator’s hand never leaves the handle.
