1. PREPARE THE MACHINE
The machine can be used as both a blower and a vacuum collector; for both of these uses it is
necessary to correctly arrange the appropriate accessories included with the equipment.
W ARNING! Unpacking and completing the assembly should be done on a flat and stable
surface, with enough space for moving the machine and its packaging, always making use of
suitable equipment.
IMPORTANT The safety systems prevent the engine from starting if the vacuum or blower
tubes are not assembled correctly.
1.1 USE AS A BLOWER (Fig. 1)
– Align the protrusions of the first blower tube
(1) with the air outlet nozzle compartments
(2), then push the tube until it is fitting firmly in place.
– Align the compartment of the second blower tube (3) with the protrusion (4) of the first tube,
push the tube in and rotate it 90 degrees clockwise to one of the two foreseen positions, until
it is fitting firmly in place.
NOTE Fit the second tube with a flat or round end depending on the type of work to be accom-
plished.
To remove the first tube (1), insert the screwdriver included in the kit in the hole (5) and press
firmly until you can slide the tube out from the air outlet nozzle.

velcro fastener provided (4).
– Connect the first vacuum tube (5) to the second (6), aligning the two reference arrows (7)
and pushing it as far as possible until the protrusion (6a) of the second tube is firmly insert-ed
in the hole (5a) of the first vacuum tube.
