Product Description

The STIHL BGA 57 is a battery-powered cordless leaf blower that delivers a powerful blowing force that makes easy work of clearing debris such as leaves, dirt, and twigs. Being both powerful and quiet, this machine is perfect for use on medium to large gardens.

The adjustable blower tube, rubberised handle, and left or right handed starting further contributes to how comfortable this leaf blower is to handle for anyone.

Also, the AK 20 battery offers up to 22 minutes of run time on a full charge, while the quiet technology of the electric motor drastically reduces noise levels, making it ideal for domestic use.

Neutral locking position

There are two positions for the battery - in the first neutral position, the battery is secured in the machine but is not connected to the contacts. This means you can carry the battery around easily without accidentally starting the blower. In the second position, the battery is fully pushed in and you can easily start the tool.

Soft grip

The handle has a soft finish, so it's comfortable to hold, even when you're using it for longer, and provides a secure grip no matter what the weather.

Hanging eye

The BGA 57 can be easily hung up in the shed or garage, thanks to the eyelet in the handle

Top Tips

Cleaning your BGA 57

When you have finished using the blower, remove the battery and clean using a damp cloth or soft brush.

Storing your BGA 57

Store your BGA 57 in a clean and dry area and keep out of the reach of children at all times. You can hang it on a hook using the eyelet in the handle.

Using your BGA 57

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 garden to make the most of your battery.

Clearing leaves with your BGA 57

Instead of just blowing the leaves around the garden, blow them into a corner to keep them contained and make it easier to collect them up.

Looking after your battery

Don't use a damp or wet battery in your BGA 57 and avoid using them in extreme temperatures (very hot or very cold).


Frequently Asked Questions

Explore our FAQs section to find answers to frequently asked questions about our company, products, and services, ensuring that you have all the information you need at your fingertips.

01 How long does the battery last?

The recommended AK 20 battery will last up to 22 minutes or enough time to clear an area up to 760m², depending on what you are clearing.

02 How long does it take to charge?

To fully charge an AK 20 battery using the AL 101 charger, it takes 180 minutes, but you can charge it up to 80% in 135 minutes.

03 What size garden will it maintain?

The BGA 57 leaf blower is great for clearing medium to large gardens.

04 What battery does it use?

The blower is powered by an interchangeable 36V Lithium-Ion battery.

05 Are the batteries interchangeable?

Yes, all of the tools in the AK System use the same style of battery. There are three different batteries in the range, which all have different capacities. For the BGA 57, we recommend the AK 20 battery, and it is designed to be perfectly balanced with this battery, but you can also use the higher capacity AK 30 battery in this tool. We don't recommend using the AK 10 as the BGA 57 won't run for as long with this smaller battery.

06 What should I wear when using this blower?

We recommend that you wear snug-fitting clothes, goggles, gloves and sturdy boots or shoes, and tie back long hair.
