Intended use

The leaf vac is exclusively used in the two following ways:
1. As a leaf vac for vacuuming up dry leaves.
2. As a blower it is used to collect together dry leaves or to remove them from inaccessible places (e.g. under
vehicles).
In suction mode it also works as a shredder, where the volume of the leaves is reduced by a ratio of approx.
10:1 and takes up less space in the leaf collection bag and the collected material is simultaneously prepared for
possible composting.
Each type of use other than those given in these instructions for use can damage the machine and cause serious
risk to the user.
Please always observe the safety instructions in order to safeguard your guarantee claim and in the interests of
product safety. Due to the machine's design, we are unable to fully exclude all residual risks.
Residual dangers
Residual risks always remain even if the hedge trimmer is used properly. The following hazards may arise in
connection with the equipment's construction and layout:
1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protection is used.
3. Health damage caused by hand-arm vibrations if the equipment is used over a prolonged period or is not
properly guided and maintained.
Warning! This machine generates an electromagnetic field when operated. This field can affect active or passive
medical implants in certain circumstances. In order to reduce the risk of severe injury or death, we recommend
that people with medical implants consult their doctor or the manufacturer of the medical implant before operating
the machine.
