OPERATION
VACUUM OPERATION
See Figure 11.
WARNING:
Never run the unit without the vacuum tubes, vacuum
bag, handle knob, and handle installed. Failure to heed
this warning could result in serious personal injury.
Install the vacuum tubes, handle, handle knob, and bag.
Refer to the ASSEMBLY section earlier in this manual.
Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping earlier
in this manual.
Place the vacuum bag strap over your right shoulder.
Hold the handle in your right hand and the handle knob
with your left hand.
Move the blower/vacuum 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, any type of metal objects,
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.
