chippings. When using the Blower/Vacuum/ Mulcher in Vacuum mode the debris is sucked up the
suction tube before being ejected into the debris collection bag, as the debris passes through the
suction fan it is partially shredded. The shredded organic debris is ideal to use as mulch around
plants.
WARNING: Any hard objects, such as stones, tin cans glass etc, will damage the suction
fan. Do not use the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher to suck up water or very wet debris. Never
operate the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher without the debris collection bag fitted.
BLOWER MODE
Inspect the area to be worked before starting. Remove any objects or debris that could be thrown,
jammed or become entangled in the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher Select the blow function using the
selector lever on the side of the machine and switch on. With the Blower/ Vacuum/Mulcher resting
on its wheels, move the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher forward directing the nozzle at the debris to be
cleared.
Alternatively hold nozzle just above the ground and swing the machine from side to side. Moving
forward and direct the nozzle at the debris to be cleared. Blow the debris into a convenient heap then
use the vacuum function to collect the debris.
VACUUM MODE
Inspect the area to be worked before starting. Remove any objects or debris that could be thrown,
jammed or become entangled in the Vacuum-Blower. Select the vacuum function using the selector
lever on the side of the machine and switch on. With the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher resting on its
wheels move the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher forwards directing the nozzle at the debris to be
collected. Alternatively with the Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher held just above the ground swing the
machine from side to side, moving forwards and directing the nozzle at the debris to be collected. Do
not force the nozzle into the debris as this will block the suction tube and reduce the efficiency of the
machine.
Organic materials such as leaves contain a large amount of water that can cause them to stick to the
inside of the suction tube. To reduce sticking the material should be left for a few days to dry out.
