FZF 4010-E
12 EN Operation
Turn the speed control governor forward to increase the motor speed and blowing/suction air
speed.
Working Procedure
Do not try to suck up wet debris; also let wet leaves, etc. dry out before using the vacuum. The
garden vacuum/blower can be used to blow away debris from courtyards, pathways, roads,
lawns, shrubs and fences. It can also be used to collect leaves, paper, small branches and wood
dust. If you use the garden vacuum/blower in the vacuum mode, it will suck up the garden waste
through the suction tube into the collection bag and when passing through the suction fan the
garden waste is shredded. Shredded organic parts are quite suitable for mulching around plants.
Blower Mode
Before commencing work, familiarize yourself with the working area. Remove all objects which
could be thrown away by the blower or which could jam or clog the blower. Using the switch lever
on the side of the machine, select the blower mode and turn the machine on. Place the blower
on the guiding wheels in the front of the tube and move it forward while directing the tube to
the garden waste you wish to blow away. In addition, you can hold the tube above ground and
move forward while swinging the machine from side to side. Blow the garden waste to create a
reasonable pile which can then be comfortably removed using the vacuum function. Never blow
the garden waste in the direction of bystanders or animals.
Vacuum Mode
Before commencing work, familiarize yourself with the working area. Remove all objects or debris
which could be thrown away by the vacuum or which could jam or clog the vacuum. Using the
switch lever on the side of the machine, select the vacuum mode and turn the machine on. Place
the vacuum on the guiding wheels and move it forward while directing the suction tube to the
garden waste you wish to collect. You can also hold the suction tube above ground and move
forward while swinging the machine from side to side and directing the tube to the garden waste
to collect it.
ATTENTION! Never insert the suction tube into the removed garden waste as it may clog the
suction tube and reduce the efficiency of the machine.
Organic material e.g. leaves contains large amount of water which may cause the material to
stick on the inside of the suction tube. To reduce stickiness of the material, let it dry out for
several days before collection.
Always use the Vacuum function of the garden vacuum with the collection bag attached.
ATTENTION! Any hard objects such as stones, cans, glass, etc. could damage
the suction fan.
