When users dismantle the collection bag: press the
interlock (5.1) to release, if the support has been re-
leased, the user must carry the bag's weight alone.
Attention: switch off the vacuum until at the han-
dle and pull the plug firstly.
Fitting the shoulder harness (Pic.6)
The Vacuum-Blower is provided with a shoulder harness
(6.1) this is attached to the top of the main body of the
Vacuum-Blower as shown (6.2). The shoulder harness
is provided to reduce fatigue and aid comfort when us-
ing the Vacuum-Blower. Never carry the belt diagonally
over shoulder and chest. Wear the strap only on one
shoulder, in this way you can remove the device in case
of danger fast.
Before Starting (Pic.7)
Connect the mains cable with the tool's plug and secure
it with the strain relief bracket (7.1) as shown in Fig 7.
Only connect the device to a power source that is pro-
tected via a residual current protective device (RCD) with
a maximum release current of 30 mA.
Operation
Note: Never use the device without the collec-
tion bag!
Starting the Vacuum-Blower (Pic.8, 9 and 10)
To start the Vacuum-Blower ensure that the intermediate
suction/blower tube is fitted correctly.
Warning! Before selecting either the Vacuum or Blow
function ensure that the selector lever operates smoothly
and that it is not obstructed by debris from the previous
use. Select either the Vacuum or Blow function using the
selector lever on the side of the machine (8.1) and press
the switch button (9.1). If more power is required slide the
speed controller (10.1) from position "1" to position "Max".
Stopping the Vacuum- Blower (Pic.11)
To turn off the machine you can simply release the switch
(11.1).
Using the Vacuum-Blower
Do not attempt to pick up wet debris, allow fallen leaves
etc, to dry out before using the Vacuum Blower. The Vacu-
um-Blower can be used to blow debris from patios, paths,
driveways, lawns, bushes and borders. It will also pick up
leaves, paper, small twigs and wood chippings. When the
using the Vacuum Blower in Vacuum mode the debris is
sucked up the suction tube before being ejected into the
debris collection bag, as the debris passes through the
suction fan it is partially shredded. The shredded organic
debris is ideal to use as mulch around plants.
Warning! Any hard objects, such as stones, tin cans
glass etc, will damage the suction fan.
Important
Do not use the Vacuum-Blower to suck up water
or very wet debris.
Never operate the Vacuum-Blower without the
debris collection bag fitted.
Blower mode
Inspect the area to be worked before starting. Remove
any objects or debris that could be thrown, jammed or
become entangled in the Vacuum-Blower.
Select the blow function using the selector lever on the
side of the machine and switch on. With the Vacuum-
Blower resting on its wheels move the Vacuum-Blower
forwards directing the nozzle at the debris to be cleared.
Alternatively hold nozzle just above the ground and
swing the machine from side to side, moving forwards
and directing the nozzle at the debris to be cleared. Blow
the debris into a convenient heap then use the vacuum
function to collect the debris.
Vacuum mode
Inspect the area to be worked before starting. Remove
any objects or debris that could be thrown, jammed or
become entangled in the Vacuum-Blower.
Select the vacuum function using the selector lever on
the side of the machine and switch on. With the Vacuum-
Blower resting on its wheels move the Vacuum-Blower
forwards directing the nozzle at the debris to be col-
lected. Alternatively with the Vacuum-Blower held just
above the ground swing the machine from side to side,
moving forwards and directing the nozzle at the debris to
be collected. Do not force the nozzle into the debris as
this will block the suction tube and reduce the efficiency
of the machine.
Organic materials such as leaves contain a large amount
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.
