What is Ferris Saying About the FB1000 Hurricane?
Landscapers have told us that they needed a stand-on blower with a smaller footprint for some jobs, and the FB1000 delivers. It’s a perfect addition to any growing lawn care or groundskeeping fleet and is packed with features to drive productivity and ensure operator comfort.
