can this blower handle taking out into a large yard or is there a distance limit on extention

Not sure how far you want to go. I have used it with a 100 foot extension cord with no problem. If you are worried, go with a gas blower.

Not sure what size the yard is but I believe the blower will work beyond 100' with the appropriate gauge extension cord.

I haven't had a problem with a 50' extension cord with 14 ga. wire. If you want to go 100', you should probably use 12 ga.

Does not come with a cord, so you provide one that has the length you need, with the correct gauge for the length.

I have an acre an a half and have had no problem with using multiple extensions! It is a great blower!

I am thinking about 15ft. I have mine in a driveway with a fence on both sides and it seems to only go that far.

I'm able to cover at least 50 feet long by 20 feet wide and it can probably go further than that in both directions. I just don't have that big of a yard.

I used it on 12 inches of moderately wet snow. It threw it about 8 feet. I had to push very hard to move the blower into the snow. It's not "self propelled". You have to work hard.

I can't answer your question - the blower unit didn't work upon receipt so I sent the entire thing back. Sorry

The power cord that come on the blower is about 12 inch, I use a 100 ft extension cord.

Nope. This is a tiny blower for small, smooth surfaces - I.E. work benches, garage floors, or maybe patios, decks and sidewalks. If you want to try a rechargeable blower for a "great amount of leaves on a yard" then get one of the larger Makita 36 volt blowers made for lawns. And unless your leaf filled yard is really small, I personally wouldn't settle for anything less than a gas blower or a corded electric. $.02

This blower is overkill for 1-2" of snow but it would certainly handle it. It's a heavy machine however so a lighter duty blower would be easier to use with that small amount of snow.

Draws air in from the front, blows it out the top (basically behind and a lil below the top controls). I'd say 6"-12" should be enough distance.

In response to Aaron's question, my experience with this machine is really more to do with blowing autumn leaves off driveways and other garden areas, but I imagine that the blower would be powerful enough for what you have in mind. Plus it's small enough to get into tight spaces, but as I have not used it for this purpose I don' to give you incorrect information.

The unit blows out approx. 1 foot, however it did heat entire home. We did have a incident with the unit just this week. We have had the unit for two winters, and just this week the blower went out, forcing the electricity to go out and flip a breaker. When this happen sparks we're spitting out, so potentially a dangerous situation.

It has a blower. It'll take a standard 2 foot log. It puts out a LOT of heat. Its hard to regulate it. You'll have to open some windows. Burns a lot of wood. Gets about 2 to 3 hours full. I'm doing a 1500 sq barn.

No, I believe this is about 12' long. Since the blower is on your back and you use a little of the existing blower hose, the total reach is a little higher, but 15-16 feet is your practical reach. If you tried to extend the reach I think the hose would flex so much it would be unmanageable.

John, I have used a 100 ft 14/3 extension cord for weed wacker, hedge clipper and leaf blower but never snow blower except to start it up. I'm sure you will find a proper answer from another good "Sam". Sorry

There is a speed setting I guess which is the highest setting #6. This is not as powerful as your plug in blower, but I use it for leaves and sticks on my driveway and back porch. It is lightweight and works for me. I am really glad I bought it.

Love mine! I use it to clear the sidewalk after mowing and getting leaves off the deck. It's not great for piles of leaves though not enough power. I have the weed eater and the blower and batteries are interchangeable. For lots of leaves you need a more powerful blower.

There are variables such as engine speed and nozzle diameter. However, as a point of reference, a Weed Eater 170-MPH 25cc Gas Lawn Blower will deliver 290 CFM air.
