Not just a blower, the versatile solo by AL-KO Comfort 442 is also a high performance vacuum-shredder, making it a great machine for tackling any garden clear up. A petrol leaf blower has the distinct advantage of being powerful like a corded electric leaf blower and at the same time providing the freedom of a cordless blower.
The solo by AL-KO Comfort 442 is driven by an easy-starting 27.2cc two-stroke engine which powers a fan producing an air velocity of 260km/hour to direct fallen leaves and debris. The 0.8 kW petrol engine ensures enormous suction power and a high air flow rate when blowing. Swapping between the two functions can be done simply and quickly.
The machine has a shredding blade system which processes vacuumed material to produce a quick-rotting, nutrient-rich mulch, reducing the leaves' volume by a ratio of 10:1. The collection bag holds a substantial 55 litres of mulched debris so you can enjoy longer run-times between each trip to the compost heap. Air speed control is infinitely variable, so can be adjusted to match the working conditions.
Featuring an 'offset' blower tube to reduce wrist twisting action, the ergonomically-designed handles with soft-grip and anti-vibration system ensure operator comfort over prolonged use.
