3. TOOL USE AND CARE
WARNING: A garden vacuum-blower is not a
wet suction device !
Avoid the suction of wet materials (leaves and
dirt), since this can lead to blockage of the
shredding chamber and reduced performance.
Under certain circumstances, the device must
then be completely dismantled and cleaned.
This work is to be carried out by an electrical
specialist or qualified personnel.
•The device is designed only for the
suction and blowing of dry leaves in private
households and as a hobby device in the
garden. Any other use, which is not explicitly
