USING YOUR UNIT AS A BLOWER
_I!bWARNING: 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 be-
tween 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
_k WARNING: Do not vacuum
stones, gravel, metal, broken glass,
etc., to avoid severe damage to the im-
peller. To avoid the possibility of elec-
trical shock, do not attempt to vacuum
water 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 forc-
ing 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
extension cord. Wait until the impeller
has completely stopped turning, then
remove the vacuum tubes. Carefully
reach into the vacuum opening and
clear out the clogged debris.
