General Safety Instructions
WARNING: Read all safety instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Read all instructions before using the appliance and save these safety instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
- Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
- Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
- Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical Safety
- Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
- Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
- Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat , oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
- When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. You should only use extension cords tor outdoor use, PVC ordinary duty with a cross-sectional area not less than 1.0 mm2 for extension cord up to 15 meters and 2.5 mm2 for extension over 15 meters but less than 40 meters. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
- If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal Safety
- Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
- Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
- Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or off position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
- Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enable better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
- Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection, a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes and a hard hat or hearing protection must be used in appropriate conditions in order to reduce personal injuries.
- Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
Power tool use and care
- Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
- Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
- Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
- Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
- Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
- Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
Have your power tools serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

BLOWER MODE
Hold the blower firmly with one hand on the main handle and the other hand on
the auxiliary handle. Sweep from side to side with the nozzle several inches
above the ground or floor (Fig. 16). Slowly advance the unit, keeping the
accu-mulated pile of debris in front of you. Most dry blowing operations are
better suited to low speeds rather than high speeds. High speed blowing is
best for moving heavier items like large debris or gravel.
VACUUM/MULCHER MODE
Once you have blown the debris/leaves into a pile, you can convert to vacuum
mode to collect the debris. With a firm hold on the vac, and use a sweeping
ac-tion to collect light debris. The debris will flow into the bag. Items such
as small leaves and twigs will be mulched as they pass through the fan
housing. For longer bag life and increased performance, empty the bag
frequently (Fig. 17).
As the bag fills, suction power will decrease. When this happens, turn the
pow-er switch to the OFF (0) position and unplug the unit from the power
supply. Remove the bag and empty the debris. To remove the bag, press the tube
release button (Fig. 11). To empty, hold the plastic handle and grab the nylon
handle on the underside of the bag. Turn the bag upside down and shake out any
debris and leaves.
WARNING: Never remove the collection bag without first turning the power
switch to the OFF (0) position and unplugging the unit from the main power
source.
WARNING: Do not use in vacuum/mulcher mode without the vacuum tubes and
collection bag in place.

WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, be sure the unit is OFF and un-
plugged before clearing the impeller.
WARNING: To avoid serious personal injury, always wear gloves to protect
yourself from the impeller blades or other sharp objects.
During the vacuuming process, certain objects such as cloth, rope or large di-
ameter 9icks may ob±ruct the fan and block the motor. A thermal protection
device, which is built into the blοwer vac, will cut off the electricity to
the motor to prevent damage from overheating. In the event an obffuction
occurs and pmver is curtailed:
- Slide the ON/OFF switch down to the OFF (0) position until the unit comes to a complete stop.
- Unplug the unit.
- Remove the blower tube or vacuum/mulcher tubes and the bag.
- Using protective gloves, carefully remcwe the material blocking the tube or impeller. Inspect the blades to ensure no damage has occurred. Rotate the impeller blades by hand to ensure the blockage is completely cleared.
- Reinstall the blower tube or vacuum/mulcher tubes and the bag.
- Wait 3 minutes for the motor to cool.
- Plug the unit back into the power supply and tum the ON/OFF switch to ON (1). The blower vac will resume normal function.
