The BGA 45 handheld blower is the ideal tool for clearing leaves, dirt and debris from smaller yards, driveways and decks.
Like all of our battery tools, it is lightweight, quiet and simple to use. The BGA 45 has a built-in lithium-ion battery, conveniently charged by plugging the blower in using the supplied charging cable. You can use the LED charge level indicator on the side of the tool to show you how much battery life is left.
This tool includes an activation key, which can be removed for storage/transport and removes the risk of starting the blower by accident.
- Clean up to 200 m² without recharging; the BGA 45 will last up to 10 minutes at full power on a single charge.
Features
Quiet technology
STIHL battery tools are so quiet you don't even need to wear ear protection.
Compact and ergonomic
The integrated battery cells mean the tool is optimally balanced. The BGA 45 is easy-to-handle. Its streamlined design creates plenty of room for manoeuvering.
Soft handle
The controls on the BGA 45 are built in to the soft handle, making it incredibly easy-to-move around the yard or garage.
Activation key
The tool can only be used with the activation key in place. If the key is removed, the tool switches off to prevent being started accidentally. The BGA 45 can then be safely stored and transported.
Charge level indicator
The charge level can be viewed at any time with the four LEDs on the side of the blower, so you know how much charge you have left on the battery.
Charger cable
The built-in battery in the STIHL BGA 45 is easily charged using the charger cable.

Tips
#1 Cleaning your BGA 45
When you have finished using the blower, remove the activation key and clean using a damp cloth or soft brush.
#2 Storing your BGA 45
We recommend you store your BGA 45 blower with around 40%-60% charge (2 green LEDs), ideally within a temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. Store your BGA 45 in a clean and dry area and keep out of the reach of children at all times.
#3 Using your BGA 45
It takes more power to blow away damp leaves than dry leaves, so it will take you longer to clear a smaller area of wet leaves. If you can, wait until a dry day to clear your lawn to make the most of your battery.
#4 Clearing leaves with your BGA 45
Instead of just blowing the leaves around the lawn, blow them into a corner to keep them contained and make it easier to collect them.
