Gasoline blower-vacuum cleaner Ryobi rbv26b 3002353

Establishing and maintaining order in the area around a country house, and especially in the garden, worries every owner living on his own land. Even in summer, if there is dust on the paths, then after the rain it turns into dirt, which cannot but spoil the mood. And in the autumn, if at least a small number of trees grow on your site, then you are guaranteed a blockage from foliage, pine needles and related plant debris. How to get rid of it without much effort, and at the same time clean lawns and flower beds of plant debris, in which various harmful insects strive to comfortably spend the winter? And during a long snowy winter, in addition to everything, I would like the paths, porch and terraces to be easily and quickly cleared of snow.

The most interesting thing is that one tool is perfect for solving all these problems - a leaf blower. These devices have appeared relatively recently, but their number of fans is growing uncontrollably, although some consider leaf blowers just another toy for adults. Of course, there may be a blower and a toy, but you must agree that dealing with unpleasant and difficult problems playfully is better than suffering from them and constantly complaining about their presence.

Blowers for women and men

Probably the main thing that distinguishes different models of blowers is the type of drive used for operation. There are blowers with an electric motor and a gasoline one.

Electric blower models seem to have been specially invented for women’s hands - they are compact and comfortable, quite light in weight, easy to use, they do not require the use of any additional gasoline or oil mixtures. In addition, such models are quite silent and do not harm the ecological system on your site.

Attention! The disadvantage associated with the use of electric blowers is obvious - such units are tightly tied to an electrical outlet and will require, at a minimum, the purchase of a high-quality extension cord, which you will have to carry with you everywhere.

Even if gasoline blowers can be called a toy, it is only for the stronger sex. Indeed, gasoline models of leaf blowers are much heavier in weight than their electric counterparts. But it's not only that. To start a gasoline blower, you need at least the most minimal knowledge of technology. It will require regular maintenance using special materials. And the noise from a gasoline blower is so loud that the use of headphones is highly recommended. However, most men will still choose a gas-powered leaf blower due to its power, versatility, and portability. Not only is there no need to be tied to an electrical wire, which is especially important if you suddenly need to use a blower where there is no electricity at all or there are frequent interruptions.Gasoline models will also be able to cope with almost any task assigned to them and work for as long as required without much overheating.

It is for this reason that professional workers usually choose gasoline leaf blowers for their work. In addition, for comfortable operation, modern gasoline models are equipped with an anti-vibration system, which significantly reduces vibration from a running engine. For more powerful blowers, which are also heavier, a system of special holders in the form of a backpack is provided, with the help of which the unit is easily attached to the shoulders and, reducing the load on the hands, frees them up for work.

Ryobi blowers

Ryobi's products evoke an ambiguous attitude from both professionals and ordinary users of gardening equipment. Starting its activities in Japan back in 1943 as a manufacturer of castings for the Japanese industry, today Ryobi specializes in three areas - the production of printing machines, high-precision castings and construction and garden tools.

Comment! In 1999, Ryobi entered into a licensing agreement with the international company TTI and produces the majority of construction and garden tools in China.

Perhaps for this, or perhaps for another reason, the quality of the tool often causes complaints from consumers and reviews of Ryobi equipment are not always positive.

Nevertheless, Ryobi gasoline tools are quite reliable.In addition, the latest Ryobi models use a variety of innovations, thanks to which, in terms of performance, Ryobi leaf blowers can easily compete with, and sometimes even surpass, some well-known European analogues.

Model Ryobi rbl26bp

The Ryobi rbl26bp petrol leaf blower is a powerful garden cleaning tool and is part of a series of high-end household products under the PowrXT brand, developed in 2013. What are the advantages of this Ryobi technology?

  • The engine belongs to the Heavy Duty category and has improved performance due to the double bearing crankshaft, which is capable of delivering high torque and power.
  • The technology reduces engine emissions to levels that are almost 49% below standard, which has a positive impact on the environment when operating the blower.

  • Additional features that are usually found only in professional models of blowers.

All the main technical characteristics of this blower are listed in the table below. It is only worth further noting the fact that its gas tank is made of translucent material and this makes it easy to control the level of gasoline consumption.

Model Ryobi rbl42p

According to company policy, even this powerful gasoline backpack blower Ryobi rbl42bp belongs more to household tools, but at the same time to the same premium PowrXT series as the previous model.

But its technical data, which you can see in the table above, is impressive. Such a high blower performance of 864 cubic meters per hour was achieved by a combination of engine power and a well-thought-out design of the spiral chamber and blower fan. The pipe of the Ryobi rbl42bp leaf blower has only one bend, while most similar models have two. The result is a smaller drop in power and air flow.

Attention! According to the tests carried out, this Ryobi model is significantly ahead of other more expensive and professional leaf blower models in terms of performance.

Model Ryobi rbv26b

The main feature of the Ryobi rbv26b gasoline leaf blower with code 3002353 is that it is also a vacuum cleaner and a shredder.

It is most convenient to use it first as a blower, driving leaves and other plant debris into piles, then switch the mode to suction and collect all the debris in the included 50-liter bag. And take the ready-made crushed material out of the bag and use it to make organic fertilizer or compost. The Ryobi rbv26b leaf blower has a shredding ratio of 12:1.

Attention! One of the advantages of this blower model is the presence of a system for maintaining constant speed under load.

Reviews about the work

Since Ryobi gasoline leaf blowers have appeared on the Russian market relatively recently, there are still few reviews on these units, but in general the products are of interest.

Dmitry, 32 years old, Lipetsk
We bought a Ryobi rbl42bp leaf blower last year and, to be honest, I didn’t even expect that it was such a powerful unit. The Ryobi company itself is unfamiliar to me; I have never purchased any of its products before. My wife liked that the blower produces half the harmful emissions. Well, I like that he manages to remove even pieces of tiles and bricks from the path. It sweeps away wet leaves on the lawn, albeit with difficulty, for which, according to rumors, not a single blower is suitable. Of course, the device is heavy and noisy, but it works like a beast, and it’s worth it.
Mikhail, 26 years old, Volokolamsk
I love such devices, so I couldn’t pass by when I saw the Ryobi rbv26b blower-vacuum cleaner on sale. At the dacha, instead of wielding a broom, he quickly swept everything into several piles, sucked it up, and into the trash. Ryobi copes well with both pine needles and cones, but it doesn’t crush everything, but only those that have already opened. But I don’t really need this garbage, but my parents, on the other hand, if they want to use it for its intended purpose, then the shredding function will come in handy.

Conclusion

Such interesting devices for making work easier in the garden and yard, such as leaf blowers, cannot but arouse curiosity. And what’s interesting is that quite budget models also cope well with their responsibilities. Therefore, take a closer look at this new product, maybe they will interest you too.
