Features

The pictures shown are sample photos. The actual appearance of the equipment features and their specific attachment to the product may differ from the pictorial representations, but will have the same functionality.

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.

VARIABLE BLOWING FORCE

MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY AND CONTROL. The blowing force can be adjusted thanks to the variable trigger, meaning you can save energy whilst clearing. This means that you can adapt the force to different working conditions you may face.

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.

COMPACT DESIGN

FOR EASY MANOEUVRABILITY. The short and compact design of the leaf blower and the central positioning of the engine, blower and battery means there is less inertia during use; making it easy to swivel and move the tool during use - so you can work more effectively and for longer.

ANGLED BLOWER TUBE

FOR STRENGTH-SAVING AND FATIGUE-FREE WORK. The angled design of the blower tube means that there is no rotational impact on the wrist. The blower tube and the handle are in line so that no torque is transferred to the handle and no pulse is generated which must be corrected manually. This benefits you to do your work with less effort and fatigue.<br>

POWER BOOST

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

EC MOTOR

MOUNT OR REMOVE THE MOWING HEAD AT THE TOUCH OF A BUTTON. With the Rapid Click System, you can mount or remove the mowing head at the touch of a button. With just a “click”, the mowing head is securely mounted to the tool so you're ready to work, or removed from the tool if it needs replacing.

HANGING EYELET

FOR SAFE STORAGE. The tool has an eyelet  allowing you to store your tool safely and compactly.

TOOL MONITORING WITH THE SMART CONNECTOR

LONG SERVICE LIFE. Magnets in the cooling air flow intercept ferromagnetic particles from the air so that they do not reach the motor. This protects the motor and enables a long service life with consistently high performance. The filter can be easily removed, cleaned and reinstalled after work if required.

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.

BGA 160 Cordless Blower: Professional cordless blower with high blowing force

The BGA 160 is a battery-powered blower in STIHL’s AP System, designed for professional landscapers and features excellent manoeuvrability combined with plenty of blowing performance. With a maximum blowing force of 21 Newtons, the power of the BGA 160 sits above the BGA 86 and below the BGA 250 handheld leaf blowers and outperforms both the BG 56 and BG 86 petrol handheld leaf blowers.

The BGA 160 has a compact size, is lightweight and has impressive power, making it ideal for working quickly and around tight obstacles when clearing small areas of leaves and hedge clippings – making it an ideal tool for every landscaper’s fleet. The BGA 160 can be used by both left and right-handed users, and thanks to the angle of the handle, it means you won’t experience strain on your wrist and arm. It also keeps the tool steady when used on maximum power, meaning you can control the blower with ease. The battery’s location underneath the impeller and handle means the BGA 160 is perfectly balanced, with no tipping required to get the right angle.

The BGA 160 has a variable speed trigger with a built-in boost mode, for temporarily increasing to maximum power when clearing stubborn patches of wet leaves. Selecting one of the three power settings helps to match the blowing power to the job at hand, which lets you get the best from the battery. Cruise control can be used when working on longer jobs and a shoulder harness can be attached to the leaf blower which takes the weight from your hand. As it is battery-powered, you don’t need to wear ear defenders when using the BGA 160.

The working time with the recommended AP 300 S battery ranges from 15-110 minutes, depending on the power level used.
