10 OPERATION
Ensure that the blower vac is only connected to conventional sockets with a 240V alternating
current supply. Only use extension cables if they are really necessary. The use of extension
cables may cause a drop in voltage, which will result in the machine not performing to its peak
or the motor overheating.
10.1 Switching ON/OFF
To switch on the blow/vac push in the on/off trigger switch (9). And hold
to switch off the machine, release the on/off trigger switch.
10.2 Speed regulation
You can vary the speed by turning the switch (10) from 1 (low speed) to 6 (high speed)
10.3 Use/Operation.
The easiest way to use the blower vac is to place the shoulder strap in a comfortable position
over your shoulder and hold the rear handle at hip height so that the majority of the machine’s
weight rests on the rollers.
When using the blower vac to pick up leaves it is best to move the machine on the rollers. This
ensures that the blower vac is at the perfect height above the ground. The blower vac is
designed only to pick up leaves. To avoid machine damage that is not covered by the warranty,
do not use it to pick up branches, stones or other hard materials.
When using the machine as a leaf blower always work away from solid objects such as walls,
fences, etc. Whilst you work do not place the blower vac tube too close to the leaves. The
machine will be more effective if you keep it at a certain distance away from the leaves and
blow the leaves forwards.
10.4 Switching operating mode
To switch the machine from blower mode to vacuum
mode, simply switch it off at the main
switch and move the function selector lever to the
other position.
10.5 Leaf bag
Note: Before you remove and empty the leaf bag ensure that the machine has been
disconnected from the mains power supply.
To empty the leaf bag simply open the zip fastener,
empty the bag and then close the zip fastener again.
When the leaf bag is open you can also check the
function of the blower vac’s slide control. If there is a
blockage in the machine, check this function and
remove the blockage.
