Holding and guiding the machine
The blower is designed for one-handed
operation. It can be carried by the
control handle in either the right or left
hand.
Always hold the power tool firmly in your
hand.
WARNING
Operate the machine only with the
blower tube completely mounted – risk
of injury!
The round nozzle is particularly suitable
for use on uneven surfaces (e.g. fields
and lawns).
The flat nozzle (either included with unit
or available as special accessory)
produces a broad and powerful
airstream at ground level. It can be
aimed and controlled very accurately.
This nozzle is highly effective for blow-
sweeping sawdust, leaves, grass
cuttings, etc. on flat surfaces.
Using the Vacuum Attachment
For specific assembling instructions,
see appropriate chapter in this User
Manual.
The vacuum attachment is designed for
two-handed operation. Hold and operate
the unit with your right hand on the
control handle and your left hand on the
assist handle (union nut).
