The Milwaukee M18 FUEL Blower (model 3017-20) is a cordless handheld blower for landscape and routine cleanup. It produces 500 CFM of airflow, 120 MPH of air speed and 12.2 N of blowing force. That is enough to move leaves, grass clippings and light debris on sidewalks, driveways, patios, garage bays and smaller turf areas.
It uses a POWERSTATE brushless motor and reaches full throttle in under one second. A variable speed trigger and an ambidextrous sliding lock-on lever let you reduce airflow around mulch beds and flower beds, or hold steady output for longer passes. The rated sound level is 54 dB(A).
The blower runs on M18 batteries and is optimized for M18 REDLITHIUM HIGH OUTPUT packs, with the HD12.0 pack called out for the best power and runtime. It accepts nozzle attachments to concentrate airflow. This is a bare tool, so the battery and charger are not included.
