OPERATION
VACUUM OPERATION
See Figure 13.
WARNING:
Never run the unit without the vacuum tubes, vacuum
bag, and vacuum handle installed. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
Install the vacuum tubes and bag. Refer to Installing the
Vacuum Bag and Installing the Vacuum Tubes.
Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping.
� Place the leaf bag strap over your head and onto your
left shoulder. Hold the upper handle in your right hand
and the vacuum handle in your left hand.
� Move the blower from side to side along outer edge of
the debris. To avoid clogging, do not place the vacuum
tube directly into the debris pile.
Hold the engine higher than the inlet end of the vacuum
tube.
Always point vacuum tube downhill when working on a
hillside.
� To avoid injury to the operator or unit, do not pick up
rocks, broken glass, bottles, or other similar objects.
� If the vacuum tubes should clog, stop the engine and
disconnect the spark plug wire before cleaning out the
obstruction.
Remove the vacuum tubes and clear the debris from the
blower fan housing. Remove the bag and clear the tube.
A small rod or stick may be required to clear the entire
tube length. Ensure that all debris has been cleared before
reassembling the vacuum tubes.
