USING YOUR UNIT AS A BLOWER
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:
D
Sweeping debris or grass clippings from
driveways, sidewalks, patios, etc.
D
Blowing grass clippings, straw, or leaves
into piles, or removing debris from cor-
ners, 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.
D
For best results during vacuum use,
operate your unit at high speed.
D
Move slowly back and forth over the
material as you vacuum. Avoid forc-
ing the unit into a pile of debris as
this can clog the unit.
D
Keep the vacuum tube about an inch
above the ground for best results.
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
