Description
For the commercial operator, RedMax is easily the industry leader in terms of the selection and performance of power blowers. The EBZ7500 backpack blower features the Strato-Charged 2-stroke engine with ultra-low emissions and high power. With a 65.6 cc displacement and 3.9 horsepower, the EBZ7500 produces a maximum air speed of 236 MPH with tube air flow approaching 770 CFM. The Max Cooled back pad uses air sucked by the fan housing to cool operators and keep them comfortable during hot days. Wide straps and contoured back pad are oversized for greater comfort. For extra durability, the machine is equipped with a frame mounted throttle virtually eliminating downtime due to damaged cables.
Zoom on the RedMax EBZ7500
With its gas backpack design, the RedMax EBZ7500 is a good match for both homeowners with a residential property with medium to large lawns, often half an acre to several acres, and professionals working across several client grounds.
It delivers up to 768 CFM of air volume and 236 MPH of air speed. In practice, it should move both scattered leaves and larger piles across yard areas, while also clearing heavier debris such as acorns, pine cones, or pine needles on patios or driveways.
With its 65.6-cc 2-stroke Strato-Charged® engine, the EBZ7500 requires a 50:1 fuel-to-oil mix for operation. It comes with a 71 fl. oz. tank, representing a standard capacity.
In order to afford more control to the user, this unit has a variable speed control. No matter the size of the job, the user can adjust the airflow of the RedMax EBZ7500 to match.
This gas backpack blower has a dry weight of 23.4 lbs and shifts most of the weight to the back, reducing strain on the arms during operation. Its throttle is hip-mounted, which can make it easier on the right hand when operating it over an extended period of time.

The RedMax EBZ7500's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the RedMax EBZ7500 compare with similar leaf blowers.
- When compared to other gas-powered backpack blowers between 60.1 and 75cc, the RedMax EBZ7500 stands out due to its lower weight: just 23.4 lbs. Should weight be a deciding factor, the Stihl BR 350 is worth a look at just 22 lbs.
- It can push air from the nozzle at 236 MPH, which puts it ahead of its class in terms of air speed for gas-powered backpack blowers between 60.1 and 75cc. If you wish to benefit from air expelled at the fastest possible speed, the Stihl BR 600 and its 238 MPH could be an option to consider.
- For those prioritizing air volume, the RedMax's EBZ7500 delivers with a maximum airflow of 768 CFM (cubic feet per minute), surpassing most gas-powered backpack blowers with a comparable engine size. If air volume is important to you, the Stihl BR 700, with 912 CFM, could be in your good books.
Here's a list of the most popular specific comparisons:
Strato-Charged Engine Technology
RedMax's Strato-Charged 2-stroke engines are efficiently designed with just 3 moving parts. This allows them to be up to 20% more fuel-efficient than standard 2-stroke engines, to be 20 to 25% lighter than 4-stroke engines of the same size, and to produce low emissions that meet regulations without the need for a heated, heavy catalytic converter. Offering much less operator fatigue, these engines have a high power to weight ratio and can therefore be classified as high-performance.
The bottom line
- Strato-Charged® Engine
- Lightweight (23.4 lbs)
- High CFM (768 CFM)
- High MPH (236 MPH)
- Decent tank (71 fl. oz.)
The RedMax EBZ7500 doesn't have any notably low specs.

About RedMax
RedMax is an established power equipment brand in North America, known for its trimmers, chainsaws and, of course, leaf blowers. Interestingly, the company traces its roots back to Japan, where it was founded in 1910 as the Tokyo Gas Kogyo Company. TGCK went through numerous name changes and settled with the names Komatsu Zenoah (globally) and RedMax/Zenoah (North America), under which they sell their products to this day. The company was acquired by Husqvarna in 2007. RedMax has a somewhat extensive portfolio of more than 10 leaf blowers, both backpack and handheld, and has recently launched a battery powered product line. RedMax products are produced in various plants over the globe, which are not limited to Japan.
