Shindaiwa USA released its 25.4 cc handheld blower, the EB262.
“We had professional landscapers and arborists in mind when we designed this unit, and we made sure to include all of the features that they would need to maximize performance, comfort and durability,” said John Powers, director of product management.
The EB262 provides 15.8 newtons of force and includes chrome cylinder plating, a two-ring piston and a blower tube wear ring.
Variable cruise control allows users to lock the throttle at differing speeds for specific tasks. The rubber grip on the main handle reduces fatigue while a secondary handle below the fuel tank increases comfort and maneuverability. The pleated paper main filter and foam prefilter with tool-less access provide filtration in dusty conditions and make maintenance easier. The EB262’s double-grid intake pattern reduces blockage from leaves, and the large 20.3-ounce fuel tank provides extra run time.
The EB262 includes both round-end and flared-end tubes. It’s available for an MSRP of $199.99.
