muffler, air intakes, and air filters.

„ 

Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.

„ 

In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water 

is available.

„ 

Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly 

washed cars, and blow debris safely away.

„ 

Hold blower, as shown in Figure 8, so the air stream can 

work close to the ground.

„ 

After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!  

Dispose of debris properly.

„ 

Use the sweeper nozzle for the everyday blowing operation. 

This nozzle allows for more area to be covered during the 

blowing operation.

„ 

The high velocity nozzle is specifically designed for wet 

sticky leaves. It allows you to scrape wet leaves or debris 

while operating the blower.

CRUISE CONTROL

See Figure 10.

The cruise control can be used to operate the  blower without 

holding the throttle trigger.

To engage the cruise control:

„ 

Pull cruise control lever back towards user, and stop at 

the desired throttle setting.

„ 

To release the cruise control, push cruise control lever all 

the way towards the front of product.

VACUUM OPERATION

See Figure 11.

 WARNING

Never run the product without the vacuum tubes and 

vacuum bag installed.  Use of an improperly assembled 

product could result in serious personal injury.

 WARNING

Keep the muffler and all hot surfaces of the blower/

vacuum away from your body. Failure to do so could 

result in possible serious personal injury.

„ 

Install the vacuum tubes and the bag. Refer to the 

ASSEMBLY

 section earlier in this manual.

„ 

Start the blower. Refer to 

Starting and Stopping

 earlier 

in this manual.

„ 

Place the vacuum bag strap over your right shoulder. Hold 

the upper handle in your left hand and the vacuum handle 

in your right hand.

„ 

Move the vacuum from side to side along outer edge of 

the debris. To avoid clogging, do not place the vacuum 

tube directly into the debris pile.

„ 

Hold the engine higher than the inlet end of the vacuum 

tube. 

„ 

Always point vacuum tube downhill when working on a 

hillside.

„ 

To avoid serious injury to the operator or damage to the 

product, do not pick up rocks, broken glass, bottles, or 

other similar objects. 

„ 

If the vacuum tubes should clog, stop the engine, ensure 

impeller blades have stopped spinning, and disconnect 

the spark plug wire before cleaning out the obstruction.

„ 

Remove the vacuum tubes and clear the debris from the 

blower fan housing. Remove the bag and clear the tube. 

A small rod or stick may be required to clear the entire 

tube length. Ensure that all debris has been cleared before 

reassembling the vacuum tubes.

Vacuum components are optional and sold separately
