Caution: Do not force the mode selection lever (6). The lever should move
with very little resistance. If the lever is difficult to move, switch Off, disconnect
the power supply, remove the collection bag (7), inspect the motor housing
and ensure debris, dirt or mud has not jammed the lever.
When selecting either of the operations, ensure the mode selection lever (6) is
fully in one position or the other, not half way.
Emptying the collection bag (7)
It is not necessary in most cases to remove the collection bag (7) from the
blower vac when the bag needs to be emptied. The rear of the bag is fitted
with a zip,
simply open the zip and empty the contents. Ensure to close the zip prior to
operating the blower vac.
Tips for using your blower vac
• If the cord becomes damaged during use disconnect the supply cord
from the mains immediatley. DO NOT TOUCH THE CORD BEFORE
DISCONNECTING THE SUPPLY.
• Always try and vacuum dry leaves, cutting or general garden debris. Wet
material is difficult to mulch and can cause the blower vac to clog.
• If the leaves are damp, first use the blower vac in blow mode to pile the
leaves in one area. Vac and mulch the leaves when dry.
• Avoid the vac on areas where are stones or other hard objects. These
objects will damage the impellor of the blower vac.
• Do not allow the blower vac to pick up soil. Soil generally contains
moisture and when combined with other garden debris can clog the
blower vac.
• The blower vac is not a garbage disposal unit. Do not attempt to mulch
any material other than garden debris.
• For better performance and comfort, it is recommended the collection
bag (7) is emptied when it becomes approximately half full. This reduces
the weight and also allows the vacuum operation to perform at its high-
est level.
• Keep all cooling inlets clear from debris.
• Walk, Never run.
OPERATION (cont.)
WARNING! Always make sure that the blower vac is switched
