Designed with ease of use in mind, the STIHL BG 56 C-E blower features our simplified starting system. STIHL Easy2Start™ allows the user to start the engine with a long easy pull of the starting rope rather than a hard fast jerk, making the start virtually effortless. The semi-automatic choke and the new start/stop switch make it nearly impossible to flood when starting the unit. The high-performance, low exhaust emission engine makes quick work of leaves and other yard waste.
