2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

This vacuum/blowing appliance is a portable
garden appliance for blowing away as well as va-
cuuming and shredding leaves and dirt.
The appliance is driven by a combustion motor.

dirt are shredded by the rotating shredder blade
mounted on the rotor shaft and collected in a col-
lecting sack.

Any other use, as well as unauthorised conver-
