Always work at the lowest possible
motor rpm level, since the noise
level and power consumption both
increase / decrease with motor
output.
Working with the leaf blower
The leaf blower may only be used
for the following purposes:
- As a blower to pile up dry leaf
material or to blow material out
of places that are hard to access
(e.g. under cars)
- As a suction device to suck up
dry leaf material. The device also
functions as a shredder in the
suction function. The dry leaves
are shredded and their volume is
reduced, preparing the material
for later composting if desired.
The shredding intensity depends
on the size of the leaf material
and its residual moisture.
Uses other than those described
here may damage the machine
and put the operator at risk.
During work, ensure that the device
is not struck against hard objects,
which can cause damage. Do not
suck up any solid bodies such
as stones, branches or pieces of
branch, fir cones or similar, since
these can damage the device, in
particular the shredding mechanism.
Repairs of this type are not cov-
ered by the guarantee.
Pull out mains plug immediately
if the impeller wheel is blocked
or if the cable is damaged or
gets wound around something!
Danger of electric shock!
Blowing operating mode:
• Set the operating mode selector
switch (16) to the symbol (See
the chapter on “Operating”, p. 10).
• You get optimal results when you use
the blower with a separation distance
to the ground of 5 -10 cm.
• Direct the airstream away from your-
self. Ensure that you do not to stir up
any heavy objects and hurt somebody
or damage something.
• Begin work with the highest blowing
power, in order to rapidly pile up the
leaves lying around. Select a lower
blowing power to compact the previ-
ously piled up leaves.
• Before blowing, loosen leaves adher-
ing to the ground with a broom or
rake.
• The guide rollers at the end of the
tube make it easier to work on flat sur-
faces.
Suction operating mode:
• Set the operating mode selector
switch to the symbol (See the
chapter on “Operating”, p. 10). Check
whether the collection bag (18) is cor-
rectly assembled.
• Make sure the volumes of leaf mate-
rial sucked in at one time are not too
large. This will avoid clogging of the
blower / suction tube and blockage of
the impeller wheel (24).
• For ground suction of leaves or leaf
residues, place the enclosed flat noz-
zle onto the end of the tube.
The ejection nozzle ensures ideal
transport of leaves into the leaf bag.
Additionally, it serves your safety by
preventing contact with the fan during
operation.
