PB-9010

The company’s main attraction was the PB-9010, which Echo says is the world’s most powerful backpack blower. With 18 percent more power than its closest competitor, Echo says the PB-9010 offers industry-leading blowing performance to tackle the toughest applications.

The company says the PB-9010 is part of Echo’s X Series lineup, a category that represents best-in-class products for the professional user. Echo says these outdoor power tools are designed to be powerful, lightweight and offer greater productivity.

The company says the PB-9010 is ideal for heavy debris cleanup, clearing large open areas, clearing large parking lots or stadiums and quick cleanups after mowing.

According to Jason Wilk, Echo product manager, there’s no other backpack blower that even comes close to the performance of the PB-9010.

“The amount of air the PB-9010 moves is nothing short of amazing,” says Wilk. “Its class-leading 79.9 cc professional-grade 2-stroke engine allows it to produce 1,110 CFM of air volume at a speed of 220 MPH at the nozzle, which equates to 48 Newton’s of blowing performance. Additionally, the PB-9010 features heavy-duty padded shoulder straps for all day comfort and a fan intake, which provides cooling air across the user’s back during warm weather operation. The PB-9010 is an industry-leading backpack blower that is truly ahead of its time.”

Additional features of the PB-9010 include:

  • 2-stroke technology
  • 6” diameter blower pipes
  • 2-stage commercial air filtration system with heavy duty pleated paper air filter
  • Tool-less air filter access
  • Large 83.8 fluid ounce fuel tank
  • Heavy-duty backpack straps
  • Ergonomic, rubber overmolded throttle handle (T model only)
  • Strap connection that keeps straps securely situated on the user’s shoulders
  • MSRP: $599.99

Echo says the PB-9010 backpack blower comes with an industry-leading two-year commercial warranty and a five-year consumer warranty.
