Leaf blower

A leaf blower, commonly known as a blower, is a device that propels air out of a nozzle to move debris such as leaves and grass cuttings. Leaf blowers are powered by electric or gasoline motors. Gasoline models have traditionally been two-stroke engines, but four-stroke engines were recently introduced to partially address air pollution concerns.

Leaf blowers are typically self-contained handheld units, or backpack mounted units with a handheld wand.
The latter is more ergonomic for prolonged use.
Larger units may rest on wheels and even use a motor for propulsion.
