Innovative Granular Herbicide Blower

For Granular Weed and Algae Control Applications
Powered by Tanaka®

Aquatic Biologists, Inc. (ABI) knew there had to be a better way to perform aquatic granular herbicide and algaecide applications.  We spent many years researching and testing various application methods until we developed our innovative ABI granular blower line.  Now we would not use anything else!

Our ABI blowers are 4-5 times faster than conventional application methods.  With it’s 360o  pivot, applicators are able to easily reach hard to get angles without shifting their body.  The point and shoot application method combined with a variable speed mechanism allows applicators to target around obstructions easily, resulting in less herbicide waste, more productivity and lower labor costs.  The ABI blower can also be locked into one position.

Each ABI blower features a stress relieved, chrome plated cylinder for longer engine life.  Weighing only 55 pounds, the ABI blower easily mounts to the bow or stern of any boat, 4 wheeler or  golf cart!  Clean up is easy due to its high air velocity and volume.

Warranty: 1 year professionals; 2 year homeowners; 5 year all electronic ignition modules

The ABI blower engine can be serviced at most Tanaka Dealers.
