BILLY GOAT’S FORCE™ II WHEELED BLOWERS NOW OFFERED IN OPTIONAL 10 GROSS HP† VANGUARD™ POWER
LEE'S SUMMIT, Missouri (October, 2017) – Ideal for medium size maintenance contractors and large property owners, the 10 gross hp† F1002V Force™ blower combines innovative fan technology and operator ergonomics with best in class engine technology for the ultimate in blowing power and reliability.
The Billy Goat® F1002 features 16-blade advanced fan technology with light weight composite housing. Patented Aim N Shoot™ allows the operator to direct the air discharge from the operator station and concentrates the air stream for the strongest blowing force in the market (up to 52% more concentrated) for the ultimate combination of CFM and PSI to get more work done.
These units are powered by Vanguard™ with the patented Transport-Guard® system which protects the engine from oil/fuel dilution during transport with a single fuel/engine on and off switch versus two switches found on other units in the market. During transport, this prevents common items such as fuel and oil from mixing in the crankcase, fouled spark plugs, hydraulic lock and difficult starts, as well as premature engine wear and costly downtime.
Force blowers are up to 30% lighter than other units on the market and are easier to push. Smooth, rounded housing eliminates air voids for quiet output and the proven design won’t rust or dent, and is backed by a 5-year limited warranty*. And for added operator comfort, the unit is available in self-propelled.
Other Force commercial blower models include a 9hp** and 13hp** Honda powered and an 18hp† Vanguard powered. Billy Goat’s small property F601 series features a 205cc Vanguard or a 208cc Briggs & Stratton® engine.
