before every use. Make sure
that the collection bag and
the tube are assembled cor-
rectly and the carrying strap
is adjusted correctly for work.
After releasing the switch, you
must turn off the motor. Do
not use the device if a switch
is damaged. Personal protec-
tive equipment and a fully
functional appliance reduce the
risk of injuries and accidents.
After switching off the de-
vice, the impeller wheel
continues to rotate for some
time. Danger of injury due to
rotating tool.
Note noise protection laws and lo-
cal regulations.
Turning on and off
Before switching on device, make
sure it is not in contact with any ob-
jects. Ensure stable positioning.

Working with the leaf blower
The leaf blower may only be
used for the following pur-
poses:
-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 func-
tion. The dry leaves are
shredded and their volume
is reduced, preparing the
material for later compost-
ing if desired. The shredding
intensity depends on the size
of the leaf material and its
residual moisture.

G B I E N I
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, r cones or similar, since
these can damage the device, in
particular the shredding mechanism.
Repairs of this type are not
covered by the guarantee.
Blowing operating mode:
For safety reasons, make
sure that the protective cover
(
KLMNOPQRST
U VWX Y Z
ABCDE FGH I J
7) is mounted on the suc-
tion opening.
• You get optimal results when you use
the blower with a separation distance
to the ground of 5 -10 cm.
• 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 adhering
to the ground with a broom or rake.
• The guide rollers at the end of the tube
make it easier to work on at surfaces.
Suction operating mode:
For safety reasons, both suc-
tion tube sections and the
collection bag must be cor-
rectly mounted before you
can start the device.
• Always hold the device tight with both
hands during operation: use the handle
(
KLMNOPQRST
U VWX Y Z
ABCDE FGH I J
3) and the additional
handle (
KLMNOPQRST
U VWX Y Z
ABCDE FGH I J
10) for this.
• Make sure the volumes of leaf material
sucked in at one time are not too large.
This will avoid clogging of the suction
tube (
KLMNOPQRST
U VWX Y Z
ABCDE FGH I J
16) and blockage of the impel-
ler wheel.
To reduce wear on the collection
bag, do not drag it along the
ground while working.
Overload protection: The motor
will cut out immediately if overloaded.
Turn the leaf vacuum off and remo-
ve the mains plug. Then check whe-
ther the impeller is blocked or the
collection bag clogged and remove
the obstacles if they are.
The tool cannot be used until it has
completely cooled down again.
Emptying the collection bag:
With full collection bag, the suction pump-
ing capacity decreases considerably and
the collection bag must be emptied when
the bag is full or interferes with the suction
capacity of the device.
1. Turn off the device and wait until
the impeller has stopped.
2. Unplug the device.
