of water that can cause them to stick to the inside of the
suction tube. To reduce sticking the material should be
left for a few days to dry out.

Cleaning and Storage

Make sure that all nuts, bolts and screws are tight and
that the guards are fitted correctly.
All damaged and worn parts should be replaced in
order to maintain the Vacuum-Blower in a safe working
condition.
Never leave material in the Vacuum-Blower or the debris
collection bag. This could be dangerous when starting
the Vacuum-Blower.
After use the Vacuum-Blower should be thoroughly
cleaned.
Ensure that the Vacuum-Blower is switched off and dis-
connected from the mains supply. Remove and empty
the debris collection bag. Ensure that the Vacuum /
Blow selector lever operates smoothly and that it is not
obstructed by debris. Brush any loose debris from around
the fan and inside the suction/blower tube.
Do not use any type of cleaning solvent on the plastic
parts of the Vacuum-Blower.

Power Cord Maintenance

If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be car-
ried out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer's agent,
or an authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety
hazard.

Troubleshooting

Attention! Always remove the plug from the
mains socket before starting any work on the
machine.
The machine won't start: Check whether the switch
•
is in the "ON" position; check that the residual current
circuit breaker is not switched off and that no fuses
have blown in its electric circuit. If the machine still
won't start have it inspected by an authorised cus-
tomer service firm.
• The machine won't vacuum: Check whether the
leaf collection bag is full. If it is, empty it; check
whether the lever for the reversing flap is in the cor-
rect position, otherwise have the machine inspected
by an authorised customer service firm.
The machine won't blow: Check whether the lever
•
for the reversing flap is in the correct position, other-
wise have the machine inspected by an authorised
customer service firm.
The shredder wheel is blocked: Check whether an
•
object has been sucked in that is too large; a piece of
wood, cardboard or other object has become jammed
between the impeller and shredder chamber. If the
shredder wheel remains blocked have the machine
inspected by an authorised customer service firm.
• If the machine vibrates, please immediately stop us-
ing it. Have the machine inspected by an authorised
customer service firm.

Repair service

Repairs to electric power tools should only be carried out
by specialist electrical personnel.

Waste disposal and environmental protection

Dispose of the machine properly after it is worn out. Dis-
connect the mains cable in order to prevent misuse. Do
not dispose of the machine with the household waste. In
the interest of environmental protection, take it to a col-
lection point for electric machines. Your responsible local
authority can provide you with addresses and operating
times. Also take the packaging materials and worn out
accessories to the appropriate collection points.
Only for EU countries
Do not discard electric tools in the household
waste!
In accordance with European Directive 2012/19/EC on
waste electrical and electronic equipment and its im-
plementation in national law, waste electric tools must
be collected separately for environmentally-compatible
re-use.
Recycling alternative to the return invitation:
Instead of returning the electric equipment, the owner is
alternatively obligated to take part in the proper recycling
in the case of relinquishment of ownership. The waste
equipment can also be taken to a collection facility which
disposes of it in the sense of the national recycling man-
agement and waste acts. This does not pertain to the ac-
cessory parts and auxiliary equipment without electrical
components accompanying the waste equipment.
