OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
AIR VENTS
Never cover air vents. Keep them free from obstructions and debris. They must always remain
clear for proper motor cooling .
WARNING
To avoid serious personal injury, do not wear loose fitting clothing or articles
such as scarves, strings, chains, ties, etc., that could get drawn into the air vents. To make sure
long hair does not get drawn into the air vents, tie back long hair.
OPERATING AS A BLOWER
Hold the blower firmly. Sweep from side to side with the nozzle several inches above the
ground or floor. Slowly advance the unit, keeping the accumulated pile of debris in front of
you. Most dry blowing operations are better suited to low speeds, rather than high. High
speed blowing is a better way to move heavier items like large debris or gravel.
OPERATING AS A VACUUM
Hold the vac firmly, tilting the suction tube (2-4"or 5-10 cm), and use a sweeping action to
collect light debris. The debris will flow into the bag. Items such as small leaves
and twigs will be mulched as they pass through the fan housing. For longer bag life and
increased performance empty the bag often.
CLEARING A BLOCKED TUBE / IMPELLER

To avoid serious personal injury, be sure the unit is OFF and unplugged before
clearing the impeller.

the impeller blades or other sharp objects.
