Page 15

OPERATION

TO REMOVE BLOWER CHUTE

1.Grasp blower chute with one hand and pull lock rod on mounting bracket with other hand toward engine to release. Refer to Figure 8 in the ASSEMBLY section.

2.Remove blower chute from over the rim of the discharge opening.

USING THE NOZZLE VACUUM

1.Place nozzle/hose vac lever in the top position on the nozzle to vacuum through nozzle. See Figure 14.

2.The spring loaded pin must be in the first hole (closest to the end of the tube) of the hose adapter to operate the nozzle vac.

3.Place both hands on top of the upper handle and fully lift the drive control against the upper handle to propel the unit over yard.

4.Use the speed control to choose either the high or low speed. The speed control may be moved either while the unit is propelling or before engaging the wheels.

IMPORTANT: Move the speed control only when the engine is running. Changing the speed control setting with the engine off can damage the yard vacuum.

Yard waste such as leaves and pine needles can be vacuumed up through the nozzle for shredding. After material has been shredded by the flail blades on the impeller assembly, it will be discharged into catcher bag or through blower chute. Do not attempt to shred or chip any material other than vegetation found in a normal yard (i.e. branches, leaves, twigs, etc.) Avoid fibrous plants such as tomato vines until they are thoroughly dried out. Materials such as stalks or heavy branches up to 1-1/2” in diameter may be fed into the chipper chute.

WARNING

Do not attempt to shred, chip, or vacuum any material larger than specified on the machine or in this manual. Personal injury or damage to the machine could result.

IMPORTANT: The flail screen is located inside the housing in the discharge area. If the flail screen becomes clogged, remove and clean as instructed in the Service & Maintenance section. For best performance, it is also important to keep the chipper blade sharp.

WARNING

Do not at any time make any adjustments without first stopping engine and disconnecting spark plug wire.

USING THE HOSE ASSEMBLY

1.Place nozzle/hose vac handle in the bottom position on the nozzle to redirect vacuum to the hose assembly. See Figure 15.

2.The spring loaded pin must be in the second hole of the hose adapter to operate the hose assembly.

3.Unhook the hose from upper handle bracket and grasp the hose handle to guide while vacuuming yard waste such as leaves or pine needles in hard to reach places.
