OPERATION
OPERATING TIPS (See Fig.8)
• The bag is installed and zipped closed (when used as a mulcher).
• Be sure the bag is zipped closed before operating the unit.
• Assure the unit is not directed at anybody or any loose debris before starting the unit.
• Verify that the unit is in good working condition. Make sure the tubes and guards are in
place and secure.
• Always hold the unit with both hands when operating.
• Keep a firm grip on both the front and rear handle or grips.
• To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with sound level(s), hearing protection is
required.
• Use the shoulder strap when using unit as
a mulcher.
• Operate power equipment only at
reasonable hours—not early in the
morning or late at night when people might
be disturbed. Comply with times listed in
local ordinances. Usual recommendations
are 9:00 am to 7:00 pm, Monday through
Saturday.
• To reduce noise levels, limit the number of
pieces of equipment used at any one time.
• To reduce noise levels, operate power
blowers at the lowest possible speed to do
the job.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris
before blowing.
• In dusty conditions, slightly dampen
surfaces.
• Conserve water by using power blowers
instead of hoses for many lawn and garden
applications, including areas such as
gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches,
and gardens.
• Watch out for children, pets, open windows
or freshly washed cars, and blow debris
safely away.
• Clean up after using blowers and other
equipment. Dispose of debris appropriately.
NOTE: Please ensure that the Mulch/Vacuum Gate is completely closed and locked.
