The present disclosure is directed to a tool for operating a nozzle holder. The tool may include an elongated body extending between a first end and a second end opposite the first end, the second end defining a recess configured to selectively receive and hold a portion of the spray nozzle. The tool may include a nozzle storage receptacle formed in the elongated body between the first end and the second end, the nozzle storage receptacle configured to selectively receive and hold the spray nozzle. The nozzle storage receptacle defines an aperture that extends through the elongated body between a first lateral side of the elongated body and a second lateral side of the elongated body opposite the first lateral side.

Tool for powered sprayer

The present disclosure is directed to a tool for operating a nozzle holder. The nozzle holder is configured to couple a spray nozzle to a spray device, and includes an outer ring movable between a holding position and a release position. The nozzle holder is configured to securely hold the spray nozzle when the outer ring is in the holding position, and release the spray nozzle when the outer ring is in the release position. The tool includes an elongated body including a first end that defines an annular rim and a pocket that communicates with the annular rim. The annular rim is configured to selectively engage the outer ring to move the outer ring from the holding position to the release position. The elongated body also includes a second end that defines a recess configured to selectively receive and hold a portion of the spray nozzle.

A blower including a body having a length, L, as measured between front and rear ends of the blower in a direction of airflow through the blower; and a fan including a plurality of blades configured to generate airflow through the blower, wherein the blades are spaced apart from the rear end of the blower by at least 0.4 L. In an embodiment, the fan is rotatably biased by a motor spaced apart from the rear end of the blower by at least 0.5 L. In another embodiment, at least 75% of the fan is disposed within an airflow outlet tube of the blower. In yet another embodiment, the blower further comprises a handle, and wherein the fan is disposed downstream of the handle, and wherein the fan is spaced apart from the handle by at least 0.08 L, as measured in the direction of airflow.
