Handle ( 20 ) or handles for a blower ( 10 ) carried in the back of an operator. The handle ( 20 ) or handles are placed on a stiff section ( 15 ) of a blower tube ( 13 ) extending from the blower ( 10 ). A longitudinal axil of the handle ( 20 ) or handles is placed outside the circumference of the stiff section ( 15 ) of the blower tube ( 13 ) when seen in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axle of the stiff section ( 15 ) of the blower tube ( 13 ). The projection of the longitudinal axle of the handle ( 20 ) in said plane is parallel to a straight line extending through the geometrical center of the cross section ( 15 ) of the blower tube ( 13 ).
