USING YOUR UNIT AS A BLOWER
_;L,WARNING:
Inspect the area be-
fore using the unit. Remove all debris and
hard objects such as rocks, glass, wire,
etc., that can ricochet, be thrown, or other-
wise cause injury or damage during op-
eration.
Use your unit as a blower for:
• Sweeping debris or grass clippings from
driveways, sidewalks, patios, etc.
• Blowing grass clippings, straw, or leaves
into piles, or removing debris from cor-
ners, around joints, or between bricks.
Direct air flow by directing the blower tube/
nozzle down or to one side. Always work
away from solid objects such as walks,
large stones, vehicles, and fences.
Clean corners by starting in corners and
moving outward. This will help prevent an
accumulation of debris which could fly into
your face.
Be careful when working near plants. The
force of the air could damage tender plants.
USING YOUR UNIT AS A VACUUM

gravel, metal, broken glass, etc., to avoid
severe damage to the impeller. To avoid
the possibility of electrical shock, do not at-
tempt to vacuum water or other liquids.
Use your unit as a vacuum to pick up dry
material such as leaves, grass, small
twigs, and bits of paper.
• For best results during vacuum use, op-
erate your unit at high speed.
