  • Our take on the Stihl BG 56 C-E Handheld Blower

    The Stihl BG 56 C-E is a gas-powered handheld leaf blower built around easy starting. Its Easy2Start system replaces the hard, fast pull with a long, easy one, and a semi-automatic choke plus a combined start/stop switch help prevent flooding. A purge pump primer feeds fuel to the carburetor before you pull. It suits homeowners clearing leaves and grass clippings from drives, patios and beds who want gas power without a fight at startup. Against battery handhelds it never needs a charge but is louder, heavier and needs fuel mixing and engine upkeep.

    About the Stihl BG 56 C-E Handheld Blower

    The STIHL BG 56 C-E is a handheld leaf blower with a high-performance, low-emission engine. It is built to clear leaves and other yard waste.

    It uses the STIHL Easy2Start system, so the engine starts with a long, easy pull of the starting rope instead of a hard, fast jerk. A semi-automatic choke and a new start/stop switch make flooding the engine during starting very unlikely.

    A purge pump primer lets the user prime the carburetor with fuel, which makes starting easier.

    Questions and answers

    How does Easy2Start work?
    It lets you start the engine with a long, easy pull of the rope instead of a hard, fast jerk. The semi-automatic choke and start/stop switch further reduce flooding.
    Is it better than a battery blower?
    It gives unlimited runtime without charging and strong gas power. Battery blowers are quieter, lighter and need no fuel mixing, but run only as long as their packs.
    What fuel does it take?
    It is a two-stroke gas engine, so it runs on a gasoline and oil mix. Check the manual for the correct ratio before fueling.
    What is the purge pump primer for?
    It primes the carburetor with fuel before starting, which makes cold starts easier.
    Is it good for large yards?
    It handles leaves and clippings well for a handheld, but very large properties may suit a backpack blower better.
