Makita PM7650H 75.6 cc MM4 4-Stroke Engine Mist Blower

I had bought my first Makita 5 years ago. I had used it for a year and then it sat for 3 years. I brought it back out to use it again and it fired right back up no problem. I continue to use it all year. GPS connected I typically by the steel sr450 or sr200. My guys complain that the Makita is to heavy. What I love about this machine most is its dependability. As long as you change the oil, it's good to go. Never had any problems with this machine except for regular maintenance such as replacing the shoulder straps and solution lines. Also what I love about this machine is the weight distribution of the solution tank. Instead of it being completely at the top like all other machines it is spread out throughout the entire back. For the Stihl Sr 200 I get maybe a year, year and a half out of it. Out of the sr450 same thing. The Makita has outlived all of them and continues to run strong. It's not much heavier than the sr450 oh, but it is heavier. I like it, it's good on the legs. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. The other problem that I had with this is the gasket that goes on the lid for the solution tank comes off. I have had the lid replaced once which came with a new seal and it still falls out here and there. Whenever filling up the tank I just visually check it and if it needs to be pushed back in it takes only a couple seconds. If you don't do this then you will be wearing whatever you put in that tank as it will run down your back. This is standard with any backpack misting machine.

I use this professionally for mosquito management. My favorite things are, choke on, 2 pulls. Choke off starts after 1 pull. Once warmed up it always starts on the 1st pull. Also, having used several backpack misters, what makes this one the best is the tank. Instead of it being over your shoulder, the tank fills from the bottom up at your lower back. The center of gravity is low so it's very easy to carry and its very well balanced. Edit 4/9/25 I've used the mister for 3 seasons for mosquitos services and it's been a rock solid and reliable machine. The only bad thing, the strap just doesn't hold up. I had to use duct tape wrapped around the strap because it started fraying and falling apart. Other than that, it absolutely destroyed the stihl misters in every way.

Not sure what else to say, this is the best fogger made. No fuel/oil mixing, it's quiet, powerful, and reliable!

The machine operates well, however the box came extensively damaged. The machine came with a crack on the hard plastic and missing parts. I was able to use tie straps to fasten the liquid shutoff valve. I would never purchase from this seller again.

Update: Died after 4 years of heavy use. I replaced several engine parts and still can't get it to start. I gave up a bought the cheaper Invatech Italia. I had this delivered today and gave it a whirl. Pros: -Easy assembly (15 min, tops) -4 gallon tank -4 flow settings (very light to monsoon) -Powerful! -Roughly 8ft diameter and 15ft long cone of mist, fast and easy coverage. -Fires right up, love 4-stroke -Very comfortable straps and back padding. -Thorough coat on both the tops and bottoms of leaves. Cons -A bit on the heavy side, 37lbs dry, 4 gallons of mix adds 33lbs, plus a pint of gas adds 1lb for a total of around 71lbs! A "Pro", if you like exercise. - It does require you to constantly lean forward slightly to counter balance. Neutral -Was dry on oil, needed about a cup. Be sure to check! Overall, I am happy I bought it, but I have not tried the makes and models that are half of this price. I like Makita as a quality name brand, and decided to eat the premium. I really don't see how a cold (ULV) fogger could be any better, but I could imagine it being a lot worse. The reason I went with a cold fogger is to spray beneficial microorganisms. A thermal fogger would certainly kill the bacteria. If all you are spraying is agrochemicals, go thermal.

I finally got tired of using a TON of chemicals to keep white-flies and mosquitoes in check and after using a friends Solo, I decided it was time to spend the $$$$ on this machine. I have owned equipment from Stihl, Echo, Husquavarna, as well as many others but have only had experience from the Solo blower which could be a chore to start. In the end my choice boiled down to hoping this mister lived up to the Makita name, and has not disappointed! what used to take 20 gallons of Talstar and a few hours is now completed in 15 minutes and 3 gallons including cleanup, I have had no problem with the weight, or balance of this machine, and cannot express in words how happy I chose the Makita 4 stroke. I am not a commercial user and spray once every couple of weeks, but on this machine I only give a few pushes on the primer and it starts on the FIRST pull and without the choke engaged. It is built like a tank, doesn't smell or smoke and the low tone of the motor is not offending. The mist output is as expected, although sometimes I do take the diffuser off the nozzle if I am shooting it a long distance or high up into trees. My only other comment is that I will without a doubt turn to this brand for other outdoor products when my others wear out or break.. 4 stroke and Makita are a winning combo.. Highly recommended.

Awesome. We have used this for about a month and have eliminated mosquitoes and spiders. from around the house. Produces consistent mist volume. Cranks on first pull. Several families went in together and purchased this and all have said the same thing. We are spraying every two weeks right now and have reduced the chemical now to 50% concentration. It is very heavy on the back but it is a commercial machine purpose built . it is a 35 lb machine with the fuel and chemical and it ways around 65 lbs. straps are significant and the tank keeps the center of gravity lower than most machines. So far we are all very happy with it. It will blow the mist up 35-50 feet into the trees.

Dudo que vuelvo a realizar una comprar corporativa debido a que no puedes solicitad la facturación desde el inicio de la comprar. Tienes que esperar hasta la confirmación del envió con una tolerancia de cinco días para pedirlo lo cual me parece muy enredado.

It does have the Makita quality to it, it's heavy for sure but I knew that before buying it. It does the job perfectly with absolutely no exhaust smell which is what I wanted. 3 additional nozzles help with applying your chemical , it could use one in the middle of the three so I just drilled one a little bigger. Range is around 20 to 30 feet for spray distance. 4 stroke engine is noisy but easy to pull/start compared to the 2 strokes.

Worked great until it wouldn’t go above idle. No idle screw, plastic components. Waste of money
