Stihl Newest BRA 600 Professional Cordless Backpack Blower – tool only

The BRA 600 is the most powerful battery-powered backpack leaf blower from STIHL. Designed with professionals in mind, its capable of taking on the toughest clearing jobs you may face during the working day. Part of the AP System of battery tools, the BRA 600 uses the power of 2 AP batteries for its 72 volt motor – resulting in an extremely powerful maximum blowing force of 35 newtons; the equivalent of the BR 700 petrol professional backpack blower and 3 Newtons higher than the BRA 500.

The BRA 600 is ideal for the most demanding cleaning jobs, such as clearing large areas in parks, as well as in fields, paths, streets. It’s high blowing force means it can blow heavy and wet leaves, grass and hedge trimmings or rubbish with ease too. Like with all STIHL AP System tools, the BRA 600 has constant power output – meaning it maintains its high power output throughout the whole charge of the battery.

Whilst the backpack leaf blower has a weight of 14.5 kg with two AP 500 S batteries inserted, it has excellent weight distribution. This is due to the positioning of the batteries and the motor which are snugly against the operators back. This design is much improved compared to the petrol backpack leaf blower design, where the engine is exterior to the fan wheel – this all results in a more comfortable experience for use over long working periods. The carrying system of the BRA 600 is extremely comfortable to wear too thanks to the shoulder and weight padding (the same padding that is used on the BR 800 petrol backpack leaf blower).

STIHL’s innovative noise reduction system is built into the BRA 600 too. This reduces the high frequency noises due to the low fan RPM and noise insulation on the leaf blower. It makes using the BRA 600 around schools, parks or public spaces more pleasant for bystanders.

An aluminium tube at the base of the BRA 600 means carrying the blower to and from the work vehicle is even easier. It also helps to increase the durability of the machine during transport. It also has a built-in electronic interface on the control handle which lets you control the speed of the leaf blower between Low, Mid, High and Boost modes. It also shows useful information such as the battery charge, the ability to switch to cruise control, check the connectivity and show basic diagnosis information. The BRA 600 has STIHL Connected built into the machine – find out more about STIHL Connected functionality here.

The BRA 600 cannot be used with one battery and must be used with two AP batteries. For the longest working time we recommend using the leaf blower with two AP 500 S batteries.

KEEP THE THROTTLE POSITION CONSTANT FOR LONGER PERIODS. You can lock the throttle at any preferred position, even between levels. This relieves the strain on your index finger during longer periods of continual use.

VERY COMFORTABLE TO USE. This high-quality, ergonomic carrying system offers a high level of comfort as you work. Its S-shaped shoulder straps and hip belt ensure a comfortable fit, improve weight distribution, and in this way support you during long periods of use in particular.

TRANSPORT MADE EASIER. The practical retainer lets you easily and securely attach the blower pipe directly to the blower so that you can effortlessly and easily transport it, without the blower pipe getting in the way.

FOR COMFORT WHEN WORKING IN TIGHT SPOTS AND CORNERS. The length of the blower tube can be adjusted on an infinitely variable basis, for example for use in narrow work areas or corners. The blower lance can be extended again just as easily. You can open and close the fastening of the blower tube by turning the ring.

LESS NOISE IN THE SURROUNDINGS. The innovative technology significantly reduces the volume (sound power level) for residents and passers-by. At the same time, disruptive frequencies are minimised to create a pleasant sound pattern. Sound emissions are reduced at the high-performance turbine input in such a way that the leaf blower sounds equally quiet to nearby people on all four sides.

TO QUICKLY SWITCH TO MAXIMUM BLOWING FORCE. Extra pressure on the trigger switch of your STIHL blower immediately activates maximum blowing force. This happens regardless of the pre-selected power level and without having to change your grip position.

FOR ERGONOMIC WORK. Thanks to tool-free handle position adjustment, you can easily adapt the handle on the blower tube to the user’s height, enabling ergonomic, effortless work.

OPTIMISED POWER TOOL USE. Thanks to STIHL connected, you always have an overview of your power tool fleet and can automatically receive power tool data such as age, operating hours, and maintenance status. This allows you to determine the ideal fleet size and composition based on concrete information, as it makes clear how the power tool fleet is being used. Following initial commissioning, the Smart Connector collects the required data and transfers it to a mobile power tool or STIHL connected Box. All recorded power tool data is available for viewing and evaluation in the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connected Portal.

SPLASHWATER PROTECTION. The IPX protection classes define the moisture protection of electrical or electronic devices. The moisture protection test is defined in different stages. IPX4 certifies protection against splashwater from all sides. Battery-powered tools with this certification are therefore designed for daily use, even in rainy conditions.
