OPERATING AS A VACUUM (310BVr Only)
WARNING: To prevent serious personal injury
or damage to the unit, always install vacuum
tubes, vacuum bag and make sure the
vacuum bag is completely zipped closed
when operating this unit as a vacuum.
Check for the following before operating the unit:
• Operator is wearing proper clothing, such as boots,
safety glasses or goggles, ear/hearing protection,
gloves, long pants and long sleeve shirt
• If the conditions are dusty, operator is equipped with a
dust mask or face mask
• The unit is in good working condition-- the vacuum

Operation Procedure
Use the unit for vacuuming up light debris like leaves
and paper.
Hold the vacuum, tilting the suction tube slightly, and
use a sweeping action to collect light debris (Fig. 20).
The debris will flow into the vacuum bag. Things such as
small leaves and small twigs will be mulched as they
pass through the fan housing, allowing the vacuum bag
to hold more debris.
When the bag is full, suction will noticeably decrease.
Turn off the unit and allow the impeller to stop before
you unzip the bag. Unzip the bag and empty the
contents before continuing. Refer to Emptying the
Vacuum Bag.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal
injury, never unzip the vacuum bag without
stopping the unit first
WARNING: As a vacuum, the unit is
designed to pick up dry material such as
leaves, grass, small twigs and bits of paper.
To avoid serious personal injury, do not
attempt to vacuum wet debris and/or
standing water as this may result in damage
to the blower/ vacuum. To avoid severe
damage to the impeller, do not vacuum metal,
broken glass or similar items.
WARNING: Avoid situations that could
catch the vacuum bag on fire. Do not
operate near an open flame. Do not
vacuum warm ash from fireplaces,
barbecue pits, brush piles, etc. Do not
vacuum discarded cigars or cigarettes
unless the cinders are completely cool.
