• Turn the lever (Fig. 7/Item 8) to position G. You
can do this both when the device is at a standstill
and while it is running.
• Channel the air stream forward and walk slowly
to blow foliage or garden refuse into a pile or to
clear out hard-to-reach places.
• Important!
Empty the debris bag before blowing.
Otherwise, the material that has been
vacuumed up could drop out.
6.4 Emptying the debris bag and pre-screen
(Fig. 1)
Empty the debris bag (7) in good time. When
the bag is heavily loaded with material, vacuum
power is considerably reduced. Deposit organic
refuse at a compost site.
• Switch off the tool and pull out the plug.
• Open the zipper on the debris bag (7) and
shake out the material.
• Close the zip on the debris bag (7) again.
7. Replacing the power cable
If the power cable for this equipment is damaged,
it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its
aftersales service or similarly trained personnel to
avoid danger.
8. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Always pull out the mains power plug before
starting any cleaning work.
8.1 Cleaning
• Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor
housing free of dirt and dust as far as possible.
14
Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth or blow it
with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished using it.
• Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning
agents or solvents; these could attack the plastic
parts of the equipment. Ensure that no water can
seep into the device.
• After shaking out the debris bag, turn it inside
out and thoroughly clean it in order to prevent
mould and unpleasant odors from forming.
• You can use soap and water to clean out a
heavily soiled debris bag.
• Rub a bar of dry soap across the zipper teeth if
the zipper becomes difficult to pull.
• Clean the vacuum/blower tube with a brush
upon evidence of dirt and grime.
• Dirt and grime can make the switch
(blower/vacuum) more difficult to operate as a
result of the material that swirls up off the
ground. When this occurs, simply flip the switch
back and forth a few times, which should bring it
back to the normal feel.
8.2 Maintenance
• Should the tool experience problems beyond
those mentioned above, let only an authorized
professional or a customer service shop perform
an inspection.
• There are no parts inside the equipment which
require additional maintenance.
