MAINTENANCE

1. Cleaning Your Unit

Your unit requires a minimum of maintenance other than cleaning. It is recommended that you clean out built-up residue from inside the housing area during and after each use. Replace cutting line as often as necessary, see paragraph 2 below, and clean air filter frequently, see paragraph 4 below. Any other maintenance or repairs should be performed by Flowtron.

2. Replacement of Cutting Line

Your unit is supplied with six strips of six (6) cutting lines each (for a total of 36 cutting lines). To separate individual lines simply pinch the indent between lines nearest strip end and peel away.

Replace cutting cord when a noticeable decrease in shredding efficiency is observed. To remove used cut- ting lines pull used line out of the spinner head inside the housing. To install new cutting lines place each end of new line through the two holes in the post on top of the spinner head and pull through so that both ends of the line are even. Thread lines through the two ferrules on the side of the spinner head and pull tight so that ends are even. See fig. 14.

LE-900F specifications

The Flowtron Outdoor Products LE-900F is a superior outdoor mosquito and insect zapper designed to provide an effective solution for insect control in various settings. This model is celebrated for its robust design and advanced features, making it ideal for households, patios, gardens, and commercial outdoor areas.

One of the standout features of the LE-900F is its impressive coverage area. Capable of effectively protecting an area of up to one acre, it ensures that a wide radius is free from pesky insects. This large coverage makes it particularly useful for gatherings, barbeques, or outdoor events where insect presence can be more than just an annoyance.

The technological backbone of the LE-900F is its UV light attraction system. This device features a powerful ultraviolet bulb that emits light in the wavelength range most appealing to flying insects. Once attracted to the light, insects come into contact with an electrified grid which effectively zaps them, ensuring a swift and humane elimination.

Durability is another essential characteristic of the Flowtron LE-900F. Constructed with weather-resistant materials, this zapper is designed to withstand various outdoor conditions. It is built to endure exposure to rain, wind, and sun without compromising on performance. This longevity means that users can rely on the device throughout different seasons without the worry of it deteriorating.

Ease of use and maintenance are also significant factors in the design of the LE-900F. The unit includes a removable catch tray that allows for simple and straightforward cleaning, making maintenance a hassle-free task. Additionally, the device features a convenient hanging chain, allowing easy mounting in optimal locations for insect attraction.

Another important feature is its energy efficiency. The LE-900F operates on low wattage, translating to minimal energy consumption while still delivering maximum insect control. This not only contributes to cost savings but also aligns with environmentally-friendly practices.

In conclusion, the Flowtron Outdoor Products LE-900F is a powerful, durable, and efficient solution for insect control. Its wide coverage area, advanced UV light technology, weather-resistant construction, ease of maintenance, and energy efficiency make it an excellent choice for anyone looking to enjoy their outdoor spaces pest-free.
