USING YOUR UNIT AS A BLOWER
x't
4t_WARNING: Inspect the area be-
fore using the unit. Remove all debris
and hard objects such as rocks, glass,
wire, etc., that can ricochet, be thrown,
or otherwise cause injury or damage
during operation.
Use your unit as a blower for:
• Sweeping debris or grass clippings
from driveways, sidewalks, patios, etc.
• Blowing grass clippings, straw, or
leaves into piles, or removing debris
from corners, around joints, or
between bricks.
Direct air flow by directing the blower tube
down or to one side. Always work away
from solid objects such as walks, large
stones, vehicles, and fences.
Clean corners by starting in corners and
moving outward. This will help prevent an
accumulation of debris which could fly into
your face.
Be careful when working near plants. The
force of the air could damage tender
plants.
USING YOUR UNIT AS A VACUUM
_,WARNING: Do not vacuum
stones, gravel, metal, broken glass,
etc., to avoid severe damage to the im-
peller. To avoid the possibility of electri-
cal shock, do not attempt to vacuum wa-
ter or other liquids.
• Use your unit as a vacuum to pick up
dry material such as leaves, grass,
small twigs, and bits of paper.
• For best results during vacuum use,
operate your unit at high speed.
• Move slowly back and forth over the
material as you vacuum. Avoid
forcing the unit into a pile of debris
as this can clog the unit.
• Keep the vacuum tube about an inch
above the ground for best results.
'I_WARNING: If the unit becomes
clogged, stop the unit and unplug the ex-
tension cord. Wait until the impeller has
completely stopped turning, then re-
move the vacuum tubes. Carefully
reach into the vacuum opening and
clear out the clogged debris.
_ WARNING: Disconnect power
source before performing maintenance.
