This blower is a BEAST! Moves pretty much anything, including sticks, pine cones, even rocks, etc. If you’re thinking about investing in a blower, by all means, get this 800. Amazing machine!

[@greenmtnman7714]

I just bought one of these this week. Also bought a BG86 last year. Just a happy homeowner with a good paying job. My neighbors love me!

[@zombie-parts]

I don’t even own this machine yet I watched the video in full. Boredom knows no limits

I bought one of these last week and used it for the first time yesterday. Fantastic machine and saves me loads of time and energy raking. Uses a fair bit of fuel though, in half an hour. Almost two tanks worth. All the best👍🏾🇬🇧

[@xConstipatedPandax]

2 tanks?

[@Soggz7785]

@@xConstipatedPandax almost, of fuel. We call the bit where the fuel goes, a ‘Tank’.

Just bought this blower today very happy with it. After using a rake and small BG 56 hand held blower to clean up leaves at a cemetery and blow dead grass this one does everything and more. Very happy with this blower that’s what keeps me coming back to stihl.

[@JoshuaAndMom]

the side starter is what really makes starting this blower funny.

[@followingjesus7331]

This was PERFECT! Thank you for the step-by-step process.

[@dallasisbetter3241]

I changed my mind, I like this blower!

[@danp5154]

Purchased mine at the beginning of the month. I love it!

Very good explanation

[@TheRealMystermaN]

No more raking for me. Thanks stih!

[@dustinzimmerman7402]

Looking at possibly buying one here in the next week or so. Tired of carrying a bulky Troy-built.

[@djjoeykmusic]

Great video Is this the baddest backpack blower? Do you have a more powerful model? Thank you in advance. Have a wonderful one.

[@vitalioso]

From day 1 have hard time starting br800c

[@stihlusa]

Thanks for your comment, Vitaliki. The best option is to speak with your local STIHL dealer. You can find the closest dealer at www.stihlusa.com/locator/search/.

[@ohtwo23]

I have this blower. Am I able to put a regular pull start from the BR800X onto my BR800C? I am not a fan of the side start. I've looked at pictures of both blowers and it looks like it may work but I'm not sure. Only other Stihl blowers we have are BR700's.

[@jimwesselman]

Still think the BR450 with the battery start is the best! Only trouble is it keeps falling off my shoulders. Why Stihl doesn’t put a waist strap on like the International version???

[@svetlifishing580]

Hello whats the model of gloves i love them :)

[@Swwooosh]

Can this model be converted (fairly easily) to a regular pull start? Thx

[@atibbs14]

Yes. Part # 4283 190 4001

[@chrisfusco1108]

Just spent $650 on a new 800c, cant get it to start!!!

[@DougMacRay]

What kind of fuel does this need? With my three other Stihl products I use 93 octane and mix in the Stihl premium oil (one little container to one gallon fuel.) Here, it looks like Stihl has a fuel specifically made fuel for just this product or am I misinterpreting this? Thanks for the help, Boston

[@stihlusa]

Hello Doug, This blower will use the same mix as the rest of of the current STIHL 2 cycle equipment. Minimum of 89 octane (no more than 10% ethanol) and a recommended STIHL 2 cycle engine oil at a 50:1 mix ratio. Best Regards,

[@djg1028]

Nice video but when will the BR800C appear on Stihl USA website and when will it be available for sale at my dealer?

[@boltactionshooter]

I got one a couple of months ago, had to get my dealer to order it and it took one week.

[@djg1028]

boltactionshooter nice, I wonder why not on the Stihl USA website yet

[@clintlewin9107]

Can I get some of those gloves to go with my blower though? They weren't included with mine

[@josephcarda8931]

parfait

[@theewhaler]

I have been a real dummy and put Aspen 4 (thinking this was 4 stroke, but it’s 4-MIX and 2 stroke) in my newly bought (second hand, but it’s 2021 model) br800c. Ironically in a bid to use better fuel to look after the engine. It ran fine for an hour. Then a week later I realised my mistake, drained the tank and replaced with Aspen 2. In now starts with a lot of effort, runs ok, but then dies when idling. Then will not start up again. Can any one please give me any advice, have I ruined the engine or is there a remedy for my stupidity?? Thank you very much to anyone who can offer any advice

Hi

[@groenhoveniers3444]

wanneer waait deze versie naar Europa?

[@jules2cv]

Hij is er 🥳

[@boltactionshooter]

I see no need to start it on the ground, what is the point? Prime, set choke and then put on your back. Pull starter and once it cranks blip throttle to turn off choke. Not sure why This guy pulls hard to start it on his back, no need, simply slowly pull after a couple slow easy pulls it starts. Yes I own this blower.

[@robies9]

You must have gotten a different brand than me because none of the three I bought would start. The dealership couldn't get them to start either. Even when they wern't on your back

[@72superlead]

@@robies9 I had a 450 with that problem too. Turns out it was the spark plug lead wasn't quite seated. Been good ever since (2 years now)

[@aussie2uGA]

I bought this 800 blower with side pull and it never starts unless I take it off my back.

[@RICHIE_RICH89]

Did you get rid of.the bushing.in the crank and go to a real roller or needle bearing. A bushing is a joke.
