MACHINE DESCRIPTION AND USAGE
This machine is a portable gardening device fit-

flow.
When the accessory tools are fitted, the air flow
can be regulated to operate in both blower and
suction mode.

sions, excluding liquids of any kind.
Any other use differing from the above men-
tioned ones could be hazardous, harm people
and/or damage things and the machine.

i.e. non-professional operators. The machine is

and collection of inflammable or explosive prod-
ucts, hot embers or combustion material with-
