ECHO is recalling approximately 3,900 gas-powered backpack blowers, specifically models PB-5810H and PB-5810T, because the fuel supply line can leak gasoline. These orange and black blowers were sold nationwide by Golden Eagle Distributing Company and independent dealers from May 2024 through June 2024 for about $430. While no injuries or incidents have been reported, the fuel leak creates a significant fire hazard. Consumers should immediately stop using these blowers and contact an authorized ECHO dealer for a free fuel line replacement.
