vapor!
Using the Blower
Your blower is designed for one-handed
operation. It must be carried by the
control handle in the right hand.
The round nozzle is particularly suitable
for use on uneven surfaces (e.g. fields
and lawns).
The fan nozzle (either included with unit
or available as special accessory)
produces a broad and powerful
airstream at ground level. It can be
aimed and controlled very accurately.
This nozzle is highly effective for blow-
sweeping sawdust, leaves, grass
cuttings, etc. on paved surfaces.
Watch out for small creatures when
blow-sweeping in open areas, yards and
gardens.
In noise-sensitive areas, operate your
unit at the lowest possible engine speed.
If necessary, dampen the surface to be
cleaned in order to avoid creating too
much dust.
Using the Vacuum Shredder
Your vacuum shredder is designed for
two-handed operation. Hold and operate
the unit with your right hand on the
control handle and your left hand on the
assist handle.
Wear the catcher bag shoulder strap
over your left shoulder, not across your
chest. This enables you to quickly
remove the power tool and catcher bag
in an emergency.
