STIHL BRA 600 Cordless Backpack Blower - AP System

Professional with very powerful blowing force
Tool only
BRA 600

The BRA 600 is the most powerful battery-powered backpack leaf blower from STIHL. Designed with professionals in mind, its capable of taking on the toughest clearing jobs you may face during the working day. Part of the AP System of battery tools, the BRA 600 uses the power of 2 AP batteries for its 72 volt motor – resulting in an extremely powerful maximum blowing force of 35 newtons; the equivalent of the BR 700 petrol professional backpack blower and 3 Newtons higher than the BRA 500. 

The BRA 600 is ideal for the most demanding cleaning jobs, such as clearing large areas in parks, as well as in fields, paths, streets. It’s high blowing force means it can blow heavy and wet leaves, grass and hedge trimmings or rubbish with ease too. Like with all STIHL AP System tools, the BRA 600 has constant power output – meaning it maintains its high power output throughout the whole charge of the battery. 

Whilst the backpack leaf blower has a weight of 14.5 kg with two AP 500 S batteries inserted, it has excellent weight distribution. This is due to the positioning of the batteries and the motor which are snugly against the operators back. This design is much improved compared to the petrol backpack leaf blower design, where the engine is exterior to the fan wheel – this all results in a more comfortable experience for use over long working periods. The carrying system of the BRA 600 is extremely comfortable to wear too thanks to the shoulder and weight padding (the same padding that is used on the BR 800 petrol backpack leaf blower). 

STIHL’s innovative noise reduction system is built into the BRA 600 too. This reduces the high frequency noises due to the low fan RPM and noise insulation on the leaf blower. It makes using the BRA 600 around schools, parks or public spaces more pleasant for bystanders. 

An aluminium tube at the base of the BRA 600 means carrying the blower to and from the work vehicle is even easier. It also helps to increase the durability of the machine during transport. It also has a built-in electronic interface on the control handle which lets you control the speed of the leaf blower between Low, Mid, High and Boost modes. It also shows useful information such as the battery charge, the ability to switch to cruise control, check the connectivity and show basic diagnosis information. The BRA 600 has STIHL Connected built into the machine.

The BRA 600 cannot be used with one battery and must be used with two AP batteries. For the longest working time we recommend using the leaf blower with two AP 500 S batteries.

Features

Constant power

When using other brands of battery tools, the performance can sometimes decrease during work as the battery discharges. This isn't the case with STIHL battery-powered tools. Thanks to the intelligent electronics, your tool will work with consistently high power across the entire battery charge, until there is no energy left in the battery.

LED charge-level indicator

At the push of a button, the LED charge-level indicator will show the battery’s remaining capacity. This allows you to efficiently plan working hours and charge the battery in good time.

Cruise control

FOR LONG WORKING PERIODS. You can lock the throttle at any preferred position, even between levels. This relieves the strain on your index finger during longer periods of continual use.

Ergonomic carrying system

VERY COMFORTABLE TO USE. This high-quality, ergonomic carrying system offers a high level of comfort as you work. Its S-shaped shoulder straps and hip belt ensure a comfortable fit, improve weight distribution, and in this way support you during long periods of use in particular.

Blower tube holder

TRANSPORT MADE EASIER. The clip lets you easily and securely attach the blower tube directly to the blower so you can effortlessly and easily transport it, without the tube getting in the way.

Quick adjustment of the blower tube length

FOR COMFORT WHEN WORKING IN TIGHT SPOTS AND CORNERS. The length of the blower tube can be adjusted quickly and easily for use in narrow work areas or corners. You can also open and close the fastening of the blower tube by turning the ring

Noise reduction system

FOR QUIETER WORKING. This innovative technology significantly reduces the volume (sound power level) for residents and passers-by, meaning disruptive frequencies are minimised. Sound emissions are reduced at the turbine input in such a way that the leaf blower sounds quiet to surrounding people.

Power boost

Power boost will allow for full blowing power, simply by adding extra pressure to the trigger lever.

Toolless handle position adjustment

The handle position can be quickly adjusted without tools to suit the operator.

Fleet management with the SMART Connector

OPTIMISED tool USE. Thanks to STIHL connected, you always have an overview of your tool fleet and can automatically receive tool data such as age, operating hours, and maintenance status. This allows you to determine the ideal fleet size based on digital information, as it makes clear how the tool fleet is being used. The Smart Connector collects the required data and transfers it to a tool. All recorded tool data is available for viewing and evaluation in the STIHL connected App and the STIHL connected Portal.

IPX4 certified

SPLASHWATER PROTECTION. The AP 200 S is IPX4 certified thanks to the encapsulated electronics and sealing of each individual cell. It means that the battery is protected against splashwater from all sides and can be used in rainy conditions

Energy recovery

When the throttle is released, energy is recovered and fed back into the battery - which extends the battery life during use
