The Milwaukee M18 Fuel Leaf Blower is a powerful, adjustable and ultra-lightweight tool which lets you remove leaves (and other garden debris such as grass trimmings) from lawns, paths, driveways, patios, garden decking, etc. It's easy to use and is shaped so that you can dislodge dirt/debris from tight spaces.

The Milwaukee M18 Fuel Leaf Blower is cordless. This allows you to use it where you want to without having to find somewhere to plug it in. It takes a Milwaukee 18V lithium-ion battery. This battery is sold separately in case you have one already from another Milwaukee tool. We like the lightweight nature of the tool. It weighs only 3.3kg with the battery attached.
