_ To activate suction mode slide the suction/blower
carriage (10) to the front.
Important:
The equipment can only be operated in
suction mode with the debris bag fitted. It will not be
possible to start it without the debris bag.
6.5 BLOWER OPERATIONS (FIG. 5)
Your blower is designed to easily remove debris
from patios, walkways, lawns, bushes, etc., and
many hard to reach areas where debris may
accumulate.
WARNING:
Because of flying debris, always wear
American National Standards Institute (A.N.S.I.)
approved shielded safety glasses or face shield
when operating blower.
Before using your blower, review Safety Precautions
in your User Manual, and all regulations for
operation of the unit. These precautions and
regulations are for your protection.
CAUTION:
Hold the blower so that hot exhaust
does not damage clothing and is not inhaled by
operator.
DO NOT
operate the blower with other people or
animals in the immediate vicinity. Allow a minimum
of 30 feet (9 meters) between operator and other
people or animals.
We recommend that a face mask be worn when
operating blower in dusty areas.
Stand away from the debris, at a distance that will
easily allow you to control the direction of blown
debris. Never blow debris in direction of bystanders.
To control velocity of airstream, blower can be
operated at any speed between idle and full throttle.
Experience with the unit will help you determine the
amount of airflow necessary for each application.
6.6 VACUUM OPERATIONS
WARNING:
NEVER OPERATE VACUUM
WITHOUT VACUUM BAG PROPERLY
ATTACHED, AS FLYING DEBRIS COULD CAUSE
INJURY TO OPERATOR AND BYSTANDERS.
ALWAYS MAKE SURE VACUUM BAG ZIPPER IS
CLOSED BEFORE OPERATING UNIT.
Do not vacuum hot or burning materials (e.g. hot
ash, glowing cigarettes) from outdoor fireplaces or
barbecue pits. always wait for these materials to be
cool enough. Do not vacuum lighted smoking
material such as discarded cigars or cigarettes. Do
not operate unit near open flame.
CAUTION:
This unit is designed to vacuum up
debris such as leaves, small bits of paper, small
twigs, weeds, grass clippings, etc. Do not use this
unit for any other purpose.
Do not attempt to vacuum rocks, broken glass,
bottles, tin cans or other such objects. Damage to
impeller and unit as well as operator injury could
result.
If vacuum tube is level with power unit horizontal,
rocks or large objects may be drawn into tube,
damaging the impeller.
To Operate Vacuum:
1. Follow correct starting procedures as explained
in this manual.
2. Allow engine to return to idle. Put the shoulder
harness on so the strap is over your right
shoulder. Put the vacuum bag strap on so it is
over your left shoulder.
CAUTION:
Do not allow shoulder harness to cover,
block, or come in contact with exhaust outlet during
operation. The muffler generates heat and could
burn, melt, or damage harness strap.
3. Place your left hand on the top handle and right
hand on side handle as shown (Fig. 6).
4. Swing unit side to side to vacuum debris.
CAUTION:
To avoid clogging vacuum tube. DO
NOT FORCE OR PLACE SUCTION TUBE INTO A
PILE OF DEBRIS.
VACUUM TUBE CLOGGING
To Unclog Vacuum Tube:
Turn engine “OFF”. Promptly compress vacuum bag
while it is still inflated, expelling air out of the suction
tube. This reverse airflow is usually sufficient to
dislodge most obstructions. If the obstruction cannot
be cleared by compressing vacuum bag, follow this
procedure:
_ Remove and inspect vacuum tubes.
_ Carefully clean out nozzle.
_ Reinstall vacuum tubes.
