Gardol GLS 250 Mode D'emploi D'origine page 13

Anleitung GLS 250_SPK7:_
Important: The garden blower vac is equipped
with a safety lock-off switch which only works
when the suction tube is mounted on the motor
housing.
5.2. Mounting the rake (Fig. 3b)
The rake attachment is connected to the vacuum
tube. When using the rake attachment the guide
rollers do not come into operation.
5.3. Mounting the debris bag (Fig. 4)
Slip the debris bag (7) over the socket on the motor
housing. It engages correctly when it makes an
audible click. Then hang the hook on the suction
tube.
6.0 Prior to starting up
b Start up the tool only after it is fully assembled.
Always inspect the tool power cord for damage
before starting up. The tool may only be used if
the cord is in flawless condition.
7.0 Starting up
7.1. Sizing the strap (Fig. 1)
●
Size the length of the carrying strap (4) so that
the vacuum tube just clears the ground. The
guide rollers (9) at the bottom end of the suction
tube will help you to maneuver the suction tube
on the ground.
7.2. Connecting the tool to the power supply and
switching on (Fig. 5, 6)
●
Insert the tool plug into the power cord coupling
(extension).
●
Secure the power cord (6) with the sleeve
provided on the tool as shown.
●
To switch on, push the ON/OFF switch (5)
toward ON. To switch off, push the ON/OFF
switch toward 0FF.
7.3 Selecting the mode of operation
7.3.1 Vacuum (Abb. 7)
●
Turn the lever (8) all the way left to "Vacuum".
You can do this regardless of whether the tool is
running or not.
7.3.2 Blowing (Fig. 7)
●
Turn the lever (8) all the way right to "Blower".
You can do this regardless of whether the tool is
running or not.

●
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.
7.3.3 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.
8.0 Maintenance and cleaning
IMPORTANT!
All maintenance, service and cleaning work must
be performed after the power cord has been
pulled out.
●
Do not use high-pressure cleaners or running
water to clean the tool.
●
Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents.
●
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.
●
Always keep the tool and ventilation slats clean.
●
Use a damp rag to wipe dirt marks off of the
tool. 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.
9.0 Repair
Should the tool experience problems beyond those
mentioned above, let only an authorized professional
or a customer service shop perform an inspection.
