As the summer season comes to an end, fall slowly begins to sneak in. Whether you're on the jobsite or at home, this season can be seen as a time to prepare for the colder months ahead. Common issues that emerge during this time are temperatures dropping, daylight hours dwindling and leaves beginning to fall. You can prepare in several ways, from basic jobsite cleanup and yard work like raking, leaf blowing and pruning — to breaking out warmer clothing for the upcoming crisp fall days. Having the right tool for the right job is essential. Here are some tools to help you with the changing of the seasons!
FALL FOLIAGE
When cleaning up fall leaves and preparing the jobsite or your yard for colder months ahead, the Milwaukee M18™ FUEL Blower and Hedge Trimmer are perfect to have on hand. Milwaukee's FUEL Blower is highly effective in quickly removing unwanted foliage and debris from your yard and gutters. This blower also has a lower setting that can be used throughout flowerbeds without causing damage or moving mulch. Another necessary chore to prepare for the fall is pruning and trimming back larger trees or shrubs. The Milwaukee M18™ FUEL™ Hedge Trimmer cuts up to 30% faster and provides up to 2-hours of run-time per charge with the M18™ battery. This versatile battery system is fully compatible with more than 200+ Milwaukee tools, including the M18™ FUEL Blower!
STAYING WARM
Whether you are on a jobsite, working outdoors or even tailgating for a football game — it is important to stay warm! Keeping warm is easier than ever with the Heated Gear and Winter Performance products by Milwaukee. The M12™ Heated Hoodie is equipped with heating elements that generate and trap heat through an Advanced Heat Technology System™. Milwaukee's Winter Performance Gloves provide another layer of all-day warmth with the convenience of using touch screens without having to remove the gloves.
BEAT THE DARK
As the daylight hours become shorter, don't let the dark stop you from completing your tasks. The solution? Temporary lighting like Southwire's Wobblelight® can provide 360 degrees of light up to 75ft in diameter. Its self-righting technology ensures that it will not tip over and the integrated carry handle makes it a simple and easy temporary lighting solution. A smaller, hands-free lighting solution is the Milwaukee REDLITHIUM™ USB BEACON™ Hard Hat Light. This clip-on light has an all-day runtime, five light output modes and delivers up to 600-lumens.
