According to our leaf blower expert
The Makita BHX2501 is a powerful 1100W gasoline leaf blower. Thanks to the modern 4-stroke overhead valve engine, the BHX2501 is less noisy and more energy efficient than other gasoline leaf blowers. Thanks to the primer pump, you'll have this leaf blower up and running in seconds, with an air speed of up to 231km/h. It has a flat nozzle, so you can also easily blow away wet leaves. You can use the BHX2501 to tidy up all the paths around your home and garden.
Note: this leaf blower runs on Euro 95, Euro 98, or E10 gasoline.

The device starts after having pressed the feed pump 4 times in 1 time. Due to the low compression, it can be started with very little force. The engine runs nice and quiet but is very powerful. The blowing force is very large and therefore more than meets my requirements. I use Aspen 4 as fuel, this fuel is much cleaner and does not decay like normal gasoline. Can simply be put away after the season and used again next year. Aspen 4 is better for the engine and your health.

After a long search I came across this leaf blower. I wanted a petrol one because of the large area I have to clean up. I think electric is about as powerful, but I didn't want to bother with extension cords. A 4-stroke engine was the next requirement, because I find the screeching 2-stroke sound very irritating. There is not much choice left, for example from Dolmar and MTD some types. Dolmar's came out very well in various (German) tests and is technically a brother of this one, but has no suction function. I first bought it without a leaf suction function. That can be added later.
The device is very easy to assemble. The on-off button first put me on the wrong track, so it wouldn't start, but that was my fault. The device is pleasant to use, easy to steer with one hand and possibly with a second hand. However, the 'balance position' is already good, so most can be done with one hand. There is a button to lock the throttle at full throttle. For short-term use, the noise is tolerable even without earplugs.
It was not explicitly clear from the user manual that oil had to be topped up first. I had already read that on another site and I also had the relevant species at home. That could also be stated more clearly at Coolblue.
