Hey all, I have a 1.5 year old Stihl BR450 electric start model that's been good. Ony recently if I use it heavily and the engine is hot and turn the unit off, it will not restart by the electric start but does start with just one pull of the starter chord. The blower starts no problem cold start with the electric start still. What might be happening here, any thoughts?

Thanks

If your blower is for personal residential use should still be under warranty. Check air filter for replacement, battery is incorporated into control unit. Battery should be charging while unit is running.
