Different uses for blowers

   / Different uses for blowers #11  
I use it to clean up job sites at the end of the day. Blows off the sawdust piles and lifts the grass where I've trampled it down from walking so much in straight line. Also, my blower is a combo blow/vac, if I've done an outside project, say shutters for instance, I suck the leaves and debris out from the bushes that way when I show the homeowner the finished job it looks neat & clean (even if cleaning the bushes wasn't on their "to do" list, it just presents a nice touch at the end).

I open both doors on my pickup, collect all the junk laying around and then blow away on the seats, floor, dash etc. It all goes out the other door. I'm amazed how much dust can gather in my truck over time.

I use my blower (hand held) to blow water off my motorcycle engine after a bath. Keeps water spotting down.

So someone else besides me cares if job site is clean. I use one to blow all that sawdust off before snapping lines. It also helps to keep those wet piles of sawdust out of the corners where they freeze up. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Since my blower is hand held, I've drilled a hole in the discharge tube that accepts the wand from the back pack sprayer. With couple of zip-ties holding the wand in place, and with the sprayer valve locked in the on position I can quickly spray pesticides, fungicides and the like. Once you dial in the blower speed and the application rate you'll find that the penetration rate is fantastic. Of course, with the wind at your back and then backing into the wind, and the use standard safety precautions, it's a real efficient application process. When finished, I place a couple wraps of duct tape over the hole, and the blower is good-to-go.
