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 appropriate for homeowners with big residential yards that extend beyond half an acre and require ongoing upkeep as well as professionals providing regular landscaping work.
It sports a max air speed of 236 MPH and a max air volume rating of 768 cubic feet per minute (CFM). These values mean that it should manage everyday yard leaves rather efficiently, but also have the power to handle denser material or small piles of heavier debris across lawns, patios, and garden paths.
This gas blower is powered by a 65.6-cc 2-stroke Strato-Charged® engine that requires a 50:1 fuel-to-oil mix. Its tank holds 71 fluid ounces, placing it in the average range among backpack blowers.
Thanks to its variable speed settings, the RedMax EBZ7500 allows precise control of the air output.
At 23.4 lbs (dry), the blower’s backpack configuration allows longer use by moving the bulk of the weight off the arms. Its throttle is hip-mounted, which can make it easier on the right hand when operating it over an extended period of time.

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.

About RedMax
RedMax is an established power equipment brand in North America, known for its trimmers, chainsaws and, of course, leaf blowers.

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.
