IV. INTENDED USE
The blower/vacuum is designed to blow/vacuum leaves as well as lawn debris such
as grass clippings and small twigs. It is not to be used for any other purpose. The
device is only to be used on dry surfaces. The device is intended for non-commer-
cial use in private home and gardens. Under no circumstances is it to be used in
public outdoor areas, sports stadiums or in agricultural or forestry settings.
The operating instructions as supplied by the manufacturer must be obeyed to en-
sure that the equipment is used properly. Any use which is not expressly permitted
in the manual may result in damage to the equipment and place the user in serious
danger. Be sure to observe the restrictions in the safety instructions.
mIMPORTANT! For your own safety, read this manual and the general safety in-
structions carefully before using the appliance. Your power tool should only be given
to other users together with these instructions.
Non-permitted users:
Persons who are not familiar with the operating manual, children, young people
under the age of 16 as well as persons under the inuence of alcohol, drugs or med-
ication must not operate the unit.
The equipment is allowed to be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any other use
is deemed to be a case of misuse. The user/operator and not the manufacturer will
be liable for any damage or injuries of any kind resulting from such misuse.
Please note that our equipment has not been designed for use in commercial, trade
or industrial applications. Our warranty will be voided if the equipment is used in
commercial, trade or industrial businesses or for equivalent purposes.
V. SAFETY REGULATIONS
Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to heed warnings and follow
instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious injury. Keep safety
warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the safety
warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
WORKING AREA
1.Keep working area clean and well lit. Untidy and dark areas can lead to acci-
dents.
2.Do not operate power tools in potentially explosive surroundings, for example,
in the presence of inammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Blower Vac 2400W Safety regulations
3.Keep children and bystanders at a distance when operating a power tool. Dis-
tractions can cause you to lose control of it.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
ATTENTION! Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on
the rating plate.
1.Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use adapter plugs with earthed power tools. Unmodied plugs and matching
outlets will reduce the risk of an electric shock.
2.Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators, kitchen
ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of an electric shock if your
body is earthed.
3.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets inside a power
tool, it will increase the risk of an electric shock.
4.Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of an electric shock. If a retracta-
ble cord is used, the cord should be fully reeled out to avoid heating up.
5.If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a power supply
protected by a residual current device (RCD). Using an RCD reduces the risk of
an electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1.Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired or under the inuence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when operating a power
tool may result in serious personal injury.
2.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety equipment
such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard hat, or hearing protection
whenever it is needed will reduce the risk of personal injury.
3.Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting
the plug. Carrying power tools with your nger on the switch or plugging in pow-
er tools when the switch is in the on position makes accidents more likely.
4.Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the power tool. A
spanner or key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
5.Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet rmly on the ground at all times. This
will enable you retain control over the power tool in unexpected situations.
6.Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can
become entangled in the moving parts.

7. If there are devices for connecting dust extraction and collection facilities,
please ensure that they are attached and used correctly. Using such devices
can reduce dust-related hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not expect the power tool to do more than it can. Use the correct power tool
for what you want to do. A power tool will achieve better results and be safer if
used in the context for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch cannot turn it on and off. A power tool
with a broken switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Disconnect the plug from the power source before making adjustments, chang-
ing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures re-
duce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
• Store power tools, when not in use, out of the reach of children and do not allow
people who are not familiar with the power tool or these instructions to operate
it. Power tools are potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or jammed moving parts, break-
ages or any other feature that might affect the operation of the power tool. If it is
damaged, the power tool must be repaired. Many accidents are caused by using
poorly maintained power tools.
• Use the power tool, accessories and cutting tools, etc., in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work which needs to be
done. Using a power tool in ways for which it was not intended can lead to po-
tentially hazardous situations.
SERVICE
Your power tool should be serviced by a qualied specialist using only standard
spare parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Make sure the power cord is kept behind and away from the device while you
work.
• Always position yourself horizontally to the slope and make sure your feet are
rmly planted. Exercise particular caution whenever you change directions
while working on a slope.
• Walk at a measured pace while operating the blower. DO NOT RUN.
• Never direct the suction/blown air opening toward persons or animals.
• The Blower Vacuum must not be used or starting until it has been fully assem-
bled.
• Make sure the power cord is kept behind and away from the device while you
work.

VI . ASSE MBLY
Your new electric blower vac requires very little assembly work before it is ready for
use.
6.1 Assembling the tubes (Fig. 2, 3 / Page 5)
• Push the bottom tube section (1) with the rollers into the top tube section (3) and
then using the two screws provided.
• Put the whole tubes into the motor casing (7) and x using the other two provided
screws.
6.2 Safety switch (Fig. 2 Pos. A / Page 5)
Your blower vac tool comes equipped with a built-in safety switch to prevent the tool
from starting, if the supplied tubes are not assembled correctly.
Before you start with the assembly of bottom tube section (1) and top tube section (3)
ensure that the safety rod is correctly mounted (shown in Fig. 2 / Page 5).
6.3 Shoulder strap (3)
The shoulder strap (3) will be supplied inside the leaf bag (12). Take the shoulder strap
out of the leaf bag, open the snap fastener, thread the strap through the metal clip (4)
on the top of the motor casing and then close the snap fastener. To adjust the shoulder
strap to the required length, simply slide the adjustable strap buckle forward or back-
wards.
6.4 Leaf bag (Fig. 4 / Page 5)
To secure the leaf bag (9) to the machine, simply attach the buckle to the top tube sec-
tion and pull the expanding bag opening over the leaf discharge point (11) on the bottom
of the motor casing (8). Click the bag opening into place and attach the second secur-
ing belt at the rear of the machine.

Blower Vac 2400W Operation
VII. OPERATION
7.1 Steps prior to operation
Only operate the device after completely assembling it. Prior to each use, check
the power cord for signs of damage. Under no circumstances should the power
cord be used if it shows any signs of damage.
Ensure that the blower/vacuum is only connected to conventional sockets with a
240 V alternating current supply. Only use extension cables if they are really nec-
essary. The use of extension cables may cause a drop in voltage, which will result
in the tool not performing to its peak or the motor overheating.
7.2 Switching ON/OFF
Slide the ON/OFF switch (6) from OFF to ON position to start machine.
To stop the machine simply slide the ON / OFF switch (6) to position OFF.
7.3 Use/Operation
The easiest way to use the blower/vac is to place the shoulder strap (3) in a com-
fortable position over your shoulder and hold the rear handle at hip height so that
the majority of the tool’s weight rests on the rollers (13).
When using the blower/vac to pick up leaves it is best to move the tool on its
rollers (13). 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 damage to
the tool that is not covered by the warranty, do not use it to pick up branches,
stones or other hard materials.
When using the tool 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 tool will be more effective if you keep it at a certain distance
away from the leaves and blow the leaves forwards.
7.4 Switching operating mode (Fig. 4 / Page 5)
To switch the tool from blower mode to vacuum mode, simply switch it OFF at the
main switch (6) and move the function selector lever (9) to the other position:
Up vac / Down blow
7.5 Leaf bag (Fig 5 / Page 5)
NOTE!Before you remove and empty the leaf bag (12) ensure that the tool has
been disconnected from the mains power supply.
To empty the leaf bag (12) 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 tool, check this function and remove the blockage.
