Echo PB-8010 79.9cc Petrol Backpack Blower
The PB-8010 is Echo's flagship backpack blower and one of the most powerful in its class anywhere on the market. The 79.9cc two-stroke engine produces 4.2kW — generating 1,819m³/h air volume and a blowing force of 44N. To put that in context, the PB-770 produces 1,290m³/h from a 63.3cc engine. The PB-8010 moves significantly more air from a machine that weighs just 11.9kg, which for a blower of this output is a genuinely impressive engineering achievement.
The carbon fibre frame is the detail that makes the weight figure possible at this power level — it provides the structural rigidity needed to manage a 79.9cc engine while keeping the overall package light enough to carry all day. Combined with the ventilated backpack pad, heavy-duty straps, and anti-vibration system keeping vibration to 2.4 m/s², it's a machine designed to be used intensively on large commercial sites without wearing the operator down.
The cruise-control throttle allows output to be locked at any setting, the 2,560ml fuel tank provides extended runtime between stops, and best-in-class designation reflects where this machine sits in the professional backpack blower market.
