Stihl BGA 160
The BGA 160 is a battery-powered blower in STIHL’s AP System, designed for professional landscapers and features excellent manoeuvrability combined with plenty of blowing performance. With a maximum blowing force of 21 Newtons, the power of the BGA 160 sits above the BGA 86 and below the BGA 250 handheld leaf blowers and outperforms both the BG 56 and BG 86 petrol handheld leaf blowers.
The BGA 160 has a compact size, is lightweight and has impressive power, making it ideal for working quickly and around tight obstacles when clearing small areas of leaves and hedge clippings – making it an ideal tool for every landscaper’s fleet. The BGA 160 can be used by both left and right-handed users, and thanks to the angle of the handle, it means you won’t experience strain on your wrist and arm. It also keeps the tool steady when used on maximum power, meaning you can control the blower with ease. The battery’s location underneath the impeller and handle means the BGA 160 is perfectly balanced, with no tipping required to get the right angle.
The BGA 160 has a variable speed trigger with a built-in boost mode, for temporarily increasing to maximum power when clearing stubborn patches of wet leaves. Selecting one of the three power settings helps to match the blowing power to the job at hand, which lets you get the best from the battery. Cruise control can be used when working on longer jobs and a shoulder harness can be attached to the leaf blower which takes the weight from your hand. As it is battery-powered, you don’t need to wear ear defenders when using the BGA 160.
The working time with the recommended AP 300 S battery ranges from 15-110 minutes, depending on the power level used.
Set includes the BGA 160 Cordless Leaf Blower, 1x AP 300 S Battery and AL 301 Charger.
