WARNING!
Never point the Blow Vac at people or animals and take extra care when using near sand,
soil, loose gravel or shingle.
EMPTYING THE COLLECTION BAG
It is not necessary to remove the collection bag from the blower vac when the bag needs to
be emptied.
The rear side of the bag has a full-length zip to open it for emptying. Simply open the zip and
empty the contents.
Ensure to close the zip prior to operating the blow vac.
TIPS FOR USING
The following points may assist you in the operation of the blower vac.
▪Vacuum dry leaves, cuttings or general garden debris. The mulching performance when
picking up wet material is not optimal and wet material also increases clogging.
▪Avoid using the vac on areas where there are stones, or other hard objects. These
objects will damage the impeller of the blower vac and invalidate the product warranty.
▪It is recommended that leaves are blown to a safe area of your garden, where stones
and other hard objects cannot be collected. Then change to vacuum mode and
collect.
▪It is also advisable not to allow the blower vac to pick up soil. Soil generally contains
moisture and when combined with other garden debris can clog the blower vac.
▪The blower vac is not a garbage disposal unit. Do not attempt to mulch any other
material than garden debris.
▪For better performance and comfort, it is recommended to empty the collection bag
when it becomes approximately half full. This reduces the weight and also allows the vac
operation to perform at its highest level.
