Use/Operation
The easiest way to use the blower vac is to place the shoulder strap in a comfortable
position over your shoulder and hold the rear handle at hip height so that the majority of
the tool’s weight rests on the rollers.
When using the blower vac to pick up leaves it is best to move the tool on its rollers. This
ensures that the blower vac is at the perfect height above the ground. The blower vac is
designed only to pick up leaves. To avoid l damage to the tool that is not covered by the
warranty, do not use it to pick up branches, stones or other hard materials.
When using the tool as a leaf blower always work away from solid objects such as walls,
fences, etc. Whilst you work do not place the blower vac tube too close to the leaves. The
tool will be more effective if you keep it at a certain distance away from the leaves and
blow the leaves forwards.
