Using the Blower
Your blower is designed for one-handed
operation. It can be carried by the
control handle in either the right or left
hand.
Always hold the power tool firmly in your
hand.
Walk slowly forwards as you work –
observe the nozzle outlet at all times –
do not walk backwards – risk of
stumbling.
To reduce the risk of injury,
operate the unit only with a
properly mounted blower tube.
The round nozzle is particularly suitable
for use on uneven surfaces (e.g. fields
and lawns).
The fan nozzle (either included with
power tool or available as special
accessory) produces a broad and
powerful airstream at ground level. It can
be aimed and controlled very accurately.
This nozzle is highly effective for blow-
sweeping sawdust, leaves, grass
cuttings, etc. on flat surfaces.
Using the Vacuum Attachment
For specific assembling instructions,
see appropriate chapter in this manual.
Your vacuum shredder is designed for
two-handed operation. Hold and operate
the power tool with your right hand on
the control handle and your left hand on
the assist handle (union nut).
Wear the catcher bag shoulder strap
over your right shoulder, not across your
chest. This enables you to quickly
remove the power tool and catcher bag
in an emergency.
