OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Avoid situations that
could catch the
vacuum bag on fire. Do not operate near an
open flame. Do not vacuum warm ash from
fireplaces, barbecue pits, brush piles, etc.
Do not vacuum discarded cigars or cigarettes
unless the cinders are completely cool.
WARNING:
To avoid serious
personal injury,
never unzip the vacuum bag without
stopping the unit first.
WARNING:
As a vacuum, the
unit is designed to
pick up dry material such as leaves, grass,
small twigs and bits of paper. To avoid
serious personal injury, do not attempt to
vacuum wet debris and/or standing water
as this may result in damage to the blower/
vacuum. To avoid severe damage to the
impeller, do not vacuum metal, broken glass
or similar items.
WARNING:
Fig. 18
When the bag is full, suction will noticeably decrease.
Turn off the unit before removing the bag. Remove and
unzip the bag and empty the contents before continuing.
NOTE: Empty the bag after each use to avoid
deterioration and obstructing air flow, which will
reduce the performance of the vacuum.

PATIO HEAD
NOTE: To use the patio head, the unit must be operated
as a vacuum. See the Operating as a Vacuum
section of your manual.
Installation
1. Turn the unit so that the blower/vacuum tube
openings point straight up (Fig. 19).
2. Place the round opening of the patio head into the
round vacuum opening (Fig. 20).
3. Press down until the patio head seats into place.
Operation
Hold the vacuum, tilting the blower/vacuum tube down.
The Patio Head should roll without scraping, adjust the
angle of the tube so that the Patio Head opening runs
parallel to the ground. Use a forward and backward
motion to vacuum up debris (Fig. 21). Small leaves and
twigs will flow into the vacuum bag and be mulched as
they pass through the fan housing, allowing the vacuum
bag to hold more debris. DO NOT attempt to vacuum up
materials that are larger than the Patio Head Openings.
