Description
Overview of the Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC
The Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC
- Power: The TB4HB EC gas-powered blower, manufactured by Troy-Bilt, is rated for a max air volume of 450 cubic feet per minute (CFM) and a max air speed of 150 MPH.
- Handling: It’s handheld, so naturally it’s easier to handle and carry than larger leaf blowers, such as backpack models or walk-behinds. At 11 lbs, the Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC is within the average weight range of gas-powered handheld blowers.
- Engine: The engine boasts a displacement of 25 cc. While this engine has a traditional recoil starter, it is also electric start capable (JumpStart Drill Bit not included). As this is a 4-stroke engine, the blower does not require a mix of gas and oil in order to run.
- Speed Settings: With its variable speed settings, the Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC allows you to precisely control its air output. In addition, the blower is also equipped with cruise control, with which the user can easily maintain the selected settings.
- Fuel Tank: With a capacity of 14 fl. oz., this Troy-Bilt blower is average when compared to other gas handheld blowers.
- SpringAssist™: The Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC benefits from the proprietary SpringAssist™ starting system. This system allows the operator to start the leaf blower with a slow and steady pull on the starter rope, which greatly reduces the pulling effort needed.

The Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC's performance versus other blowers
The following charts are provided to give you an idea how the key specs of the Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC compare with similar leaf blowers.
- The air speed of the Troy-Bilt TB4HB EC maxes out at 150 MPH. While more than adequate for many jobs, its air speed is below average among other gas-powered handheld blowers. For the fastest air speed in this category, you may want to consider the Poulan Pro PPBV25, which can expell air at a velocity that can reach 230 MPH.
- The TB4HB EC is average in terms of air volume. It's rated at 450 CFM, which is common for gas-powered handheld blowers. If air volume is important to you, the Troy-Bilt TB2MB JET, with 650 CFM, could be in your good books.

- Electric start capable
- SpringAssist™ technology

Questions & Answers

I have a TB4HB EC blower and it is nice and light weight, starts easily even with ready pull. This blower has not been used very much until last year when I started camping in a wooded campgrounds. It seems last November I was blowing leaves and now and then I would hear a squalling sound then shortly afterwards while the engine was running just fine there was no air blowing. I found the impeller was loose. I was able to tighten it up and tried using it again. Not long and there was that sound again and no air. This time I noticed the impeller was not only loose but, also wobbled and was no longer centered. OK, so, I replaced the impeller I bought from Jack’s Small Engines in Md. and all was well. Ok, so I hadn’t used the blower much this past Spring and Summer. Here it is November, 2020. Just about 1 year later my wife said what’s that noise and same thing. The impeller looks like the hole in it is actually melted and the washer on it IS melted right into the impeller. So, I have another impeller ordered. Sounds to me like the impeller just can’t stand the heat of the crank shaft which it is mounted to. I am just starting to search for an answer. Hopefully there is an impeller made of a better material.
