Maintenance and care
IMPORTANT! Danger of damage to the ap-
pliance. Vacuumed liquids damage the appli-
ance. Wet leaves or grass clog the appliance.
Vacuumed branches, pieces of glass, sharp ob-
jects, pieces of metal, stones or other objects
damage the shredding blade as well as the rotor.
■
Do not vacuum any liquids, wet leaves or
grass.
■
Do not vacuum any of the objects mentioned
above.
NOTE Do not vacuum small animals.
1. Fit the vacuum tubes and the collecting sack
(see chapter 4.3 "Assembly for vacuum oper-
ation", page 31).
2. Starting the motor:
■
Pull the exhaust air manifold of the col-
lecting sack out of the appliance connec-
tion piece so the appliance can be set on
the ground to start the motor.
■
Start the motor (see chapter 6.1 "Starting
the engine", page 33).
3. Hang the collecting sack over your left shoul-
der by the carrying belt (19/1). The collecting
sack must hang free of your shoulder and
must not be twisted so that it can fill unhin-
dered.
4. Lift the appliance with the right hand on the
upper handle (19/2).
5. With the left hand, slide the exhaust air mani-
fold of the collecting sack into the appliance
connection piece until it sticks.
6. Hold the appliance with both hands: on the
upper handle (19/2) and on the lower handle
(19/3).
7. While working:
■
Operate the appliance at medium/high
motor speed.
■
Hold the inlet opening of the vacuum
tube just a few centimetres above the
ground.
■
Do not fill the collecting sack completely.
The vacuum power decreases if the col-
lecting sack is full.
■
After vacuuming a dangerous object: Im-
mediately stop the motor and remove the
object. Check if the shredding blade or
the rotor has been damaged.
8. Emptying the collecting sack:
■
Stop the motor (see chapter 6.3 "Stop-
ping the motor (17)", page 34).

lecting sack out of the appliance connec-
tion piece and set down the appliance.

8 MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Proper maintenance and care is necessary to en-
sure the functionality and safety of the appliance.
Note the following points:
■
Only carry out maintenance and care work if
you have the necessary knowledge and
tools.
■
Wait until the motor has fully cooled.
■
Wear protective gloves.
■
Only replace any worn or defective appliance
parts with original spare parts from the manu-
facturer.
■
Do not carry out any maintenance and care
work that is not described in these instruc-
tions for use. Instruct an authorise service
workshop to do this work. Any infringements
will invalidate the manufacturer's warranty.
The intervals for the maintenance and care work
mentioned here can be found in the maintenance
schedule (see chapter 8.6 "Maintenance sched-
ule", page 37).
8.1
Cleaning/replacing the air filter (20)
1. Dismantling the air filter:
■
Undo the air filter screw (20/1) until the
air filter housing (20/2) is loose.
■
Pull off the air filter housing (20/2).
■
Pull the filter sponge (20/3) off the peg

Thoroughly wipe out the air filter housing
(20/2) with a cleaning rag.
3. Replacing:
