Operation

Hold the vacuum, tilting the blower/vacuum tube down. The Patio Head should roll without scraping, adjust the angle of the tube so that the Patio Head opening runs parallel to the ground. Use a forward and backward motion to vacuum up debris (Fig. 21). Small leaves and twigs will flow into the vacuum bag and be mulched as they pass through the fan housing, allowing the vacuum bag to hold more debris. DO NOT attempt to vacuum up materials that are larger than the Patio Head Openings.
