Performance Comparison - Round 1 (Effort vs. Power)

it's a really easy, really gentle This unit right here in your hands has never been fired up, right? Exactly. So, what is the first time operators startup procedure when they go to do it? or once you get it fueled up, you're going to prime it. And anytime you have a backpack blower, you need to know they have relatively long fuel lines in them. And that fuel line is going to pick the fuel up from the tank, put it up into the carburetor, and then with this primer system, it's going to pull it through, and then push it back down into the tank.

You're basically just purging air bubbles out of your fuel lines. Now, is that just this unit or is that power equipment in general? That's power equipment in general. Okay. So, you can just prime till the cows come home and never hurt it. You're not going to flood it. You can prime it till the cows come home. You will not flood it with the primer. All right. So, this is where things start to get weird. Frankie's got the old Echo on the left and Xander's got the brand new steel on the right. And I basically thought that Xander was going to smoke Frankie, but if you watch this, you'll see that Frankie, I think, actually wins this first round. And I wanted to find out what happened. So, when I asked Xander what was going on, he said he was just blowing normally while Frankie, on the other hand, was hustling. And you can see how much of a difference that makes. It's not necessarily the size of the dog in the
