  • Our take on the STIHL BG 56 Petrol Blower

    The STIHL BG 56 is a handheld gas leaf blower built around STIHL's 2-MIX engine, a 27.2 cc two-stroke that produces strong blowing force from a light, simple package. It uses a manual purge primer and a multi-function control handle, so starting and running are straightforward for occasional yard work. It suits homeowners clearing leaves, grass clippings and driveway debris; it is not a backpack or battery unit, so it trades run time and vibration comfort for fuel convenience. Against battery blowers it is louder and heavier to live with, but it never waits on a charge.

    Questions and answers

    Is the BG 56 good for a typical suburban yard?
    Yes. It is sized for leaves, grass clippings and driveway debris around a home. Very large properties are better served by a backpack blower.
    Does it need mixed fuel?
    Yes. The 2-MIX engine is a two-stroke and runs on a gasoline and oil mix. STIHL MotoMix is a pre-mixed option.
    How does it compare with a battery blower?
    It has more sustained power than most handheld battery blowers and no recharge wait, but it is louder, vibrates more and needs fuel.
    What is included with the blower?
    The unit ships with its round nozzle and standard handheld setup. Fuel and oil are separate purchases.
    Can I use it for wet leaves?
    It can move light, damp debris, but wet, matted leaves are better handled by raking or a more powerful backpack unit.
    Where is the STIHL BG 56 Petrol Blower cheapest?
    At DTW TOOLS, for $297.81, as of our latest check.
