IS a stihl br600 as good as a redmax ebz8000?
OK, the Redmax, has more volume and speed. It has a larger fuel tank. It also runs on a 2 cycle strato charged engine, which meets the current EPA regulations. The Stihl is about 3 pounds lighter, and runs Stihl’s 4-Mix engine. The 4-Mix is a 4 cycle engine that runs on 2 cycle oil & gas mix. The advantage to that is, the engine fires every other stroke, rather than every stroke. So it runs cooler, quiter, and more fuel efficent and it is way under the current EPA regulations. And it also has more torque, because it can use the whole power stroke. Plus with the Stihl there are over 8,000 dealers nationwide who can help you if you have a problem. Weigh both advantages and disadvantages, and make an educated dicision. Good luck!
