In order to remove the plug-in connector from the outlet bracket, firstly press

both buttons on each side of the plastic connector (Fig. G) and then pull away the connector.

7.3. Fitting the shoulder strap (Fig H)

The leaf vacuum is equipped with a shoulder strap that is located at the top of the leaf vacuum. The shoulder strap is designed to reduce fatigue and to make using the leaf vacuum more comfortable. Never wear the strap diagonally across the shoulder and chest but only over one shoulder. This will enable you to remove the appliance from your body quickly in the event of danger.

7.4. Connecting an extension cable

• Plug the mains cable of the appliance into the coupling of the extension cable.
  ▶ Guide the cable through the retaining bracket (Fig. I) for the extension cable to avoid excessive strain being placed on the plug connection.

8. Using the appliance

Two safety symbols: a circular icon with a person wearing glasses and a cross symbol with an arrow, and an open book with a broken line.

DANGER!

Risk of injury.

Wear hearing protection, protective goggles, protective gloves, safety shoes and tight-fitting work clothes while operating the appliance.

DANGER!

Risk of injury.

▶ Ensure that the tube is correctly fitted before starting the leaf vacuum.
Do not use the appliance if the appliance, tube, accessories or the mains cable are visibly damaged or the On/Off switch does not function properly.

WARNING!

Risk of injury/property damage.

▶ Keep people and animals at least 5 metres away from the working area.
Before selecting either vacuum or blower mode, ensure that the selection lever is easy to operate and is not obstructed by debris from the previous use of

the appliance.

▶ Try not to vacuum up wet debris. Allow wet leaves etc. to firstly dry before using the leaf vacuum. You can use the leaf vacuum to blow dirt from courtyards, paths, drives, lawns, bushes and borders. In addition, you can also use the appliance to vacuum up foliage, paper, small twigs and wood chips. If you use the leaf vacuum in vacuum mode, the waste will be vacuumed up through the tube into the collection bag. As the waste passes the suction fan, it is partially shredded. Shredded organic waste is ideal for use as mulch for plants.

▶ Warning! Hard objects e.g. stones, tin cans, glass, etc. will damage the suction fan.
▶ Important! Do not use the leaf vacuum to vacuum up water or very wet dirt. Never use the vacuum blower unless the collection bag has been correctly fitted!
▶ Please note that the blower will continue to operate for a while after being switched off.
▶ Never use the appliance while standing on a ladder or similar. Never work on unstable ground.
▶ Always hold the mains cable out of the working area and guide it to the rear away from the appliance.

9. Operation

Connect the appliance to a safety socket using the extension cable (see also section "7.4. Connecting an extension cable").
▶ Use the selection lever (3) on the side of the appliance to choose either vacuum or blower mode and press the On/Off switch (1) to switch the appliance on.
▶ Turn the speed control (10) from "1" to "6" if you require more power (Fig. J).

9.1. Stopping the leaf vacuum (Fig. J)

In order to stop the appliance, you simply need to release the On/Off switch (1).

9.2. Blower mode (Fig. K)

Inspect the working area before starting work. Remove all objects or waste that could be thrown around or crushed by the leaf vacuum or could become entangled in it.
▶ Select blower mode using the selection lever (3) on the side of the appliance and switch the appliance on. Support the leaf vacuum on its wheels and move it forwards. Direct the nozzle onto the dirt that needs removing.
Alternatively, you can hold the nozzle directly above the ground and swing the appliance from side to side while also moving forwards and directing the nozzle at the dirt that needs removing.
▶ Blow the waste together into a heap and then use vacuum mode to vacuum it up.

9.3. Vacuum mode (Fig. L)

Inspect the working area before starting work. Remove all objects or waste that could be thrown around or crushed by the leaf vacuum or could become entangled in it.
▶ Select vacuum mode using the selection lever (3) on the side of the appliance and switch the appliance on. Support the leaf vacuum on its wheels and move it forwards. Direct the nozzle onto the dirt that needs vacuuming.
Alternatively, you can hold the leaf vacuum directly above the ground and swing the appliance from side to side while also moving forwards and directing the nozzle at the dirt that needs vacuuming. Do not press the nozzle into the dirt. This will cause the suction tube to become blocked and will reduce the performance of the appliance.
Organic materials such as leaves contain a large amount of water and can stick to the inside of the suction tube as a result. Allow organic waste to firstly dry for a few days so that it does not stick to the tube.

10. Cleaning the appliance

18. General Warranty Conditions

18.1. General information

The warranty period is 24 months and begins on the day the product is purchased. The warranty covers all types of material and product damage that could occur during normal use.

Please keep your original proof of purchase in a safe place. The warranty provider reserves the right to refuse to confirm the status of the warranty or to carry out a repair under warranty if a valid proof of purchase cannot be produced.

If it is necessary to return your device for repair, please ensure that it is suitably packaged for transportation. Unless otherwise specified, you shall bear the costs for sending the device and the transport risk. The warranty provider does not assume any liability for additional materials sent with the product that do not belong to the original package contents supplied with the product.

Please enclose as much information as possible about the fault when sending the device to the warranty provider. In order to make a valid claim under warranty and before returning the device, please contact the Service Hotline operated by the warranty provider or the Service Portal. They will provide you with information on how to proceed further.

This warranty has no effect on your statutory warranty rights and is subject to the laws of the country in which the first purchase of the product was made by the end customer.

18.1.1. Scope

In the event of a fault on your product that is covered by this warranty, the warranty provider guarantees to repair or replace the product. The decision about whether to repair or replace the device is taken by the warranty provider. Therefore, the warranty provider can at its own discretion decide to replace a device submitted for repair under warranty with a refurbished device of the same quality.

No warranty is provided for batteries or rechargeable batteries or for consumable materials i.e. parts which have to be replaced at regular intervals during the normal use of the product e.g. video projector lamps.

A pixel error (permanently coloured, light or dark point in an image) is not generally considered a fault. Please refer to the information provided in the manual for this product for the precise number of permissible defects in the image.

The warranty provider gives no warranty for burnt-in images on plasma or LCD devices that result from the improper use of the device. Please refer to the information provided in the manual for this product for precise instructions on operating your plasma or LCD device.

The warranty does not cover errors relating to the playback of data media that have been created in an incompatible format or as a result of using unsuitable software. If it is discovered during the repair that the fault concerned is not covered under warranty, the warranty provider reserves the right to invoice the customer for the

costs already incurred in the form of a flat-rate handling charge, as well as to charge the customer for the materials and labour required for the repair after submitting a cost estimate. You will be informed in advance as the customer about these repair charges; you are responsible for accepting or rejecting the repair process.

18.1.2. Exclusions

Malfunctions and damage to the device caused by external influences, accidental damage, improper use, changes made to the product, modifications, upgrades, the use of third-party parts, neglect, viruses or software faults, improper transport, improper packaging or loss during the return of the product are not covered by the warranty issued by the warranty provider.

The warranty will be invalidated if the fault to the device is caused by maintenance or repair carried out by someone other than a service partner authorized by the warranty provider. The warranty will also be invalidated if labels or serial numbers on the device or a component of the device have been modified or made illegible.

18.1.3. Service Hotline

Before sending the device to the warranty provider, you must contact us via the Service Hotline or the Service Portal. This ensures that you receive further information on how to make a valid claim under warranty.

The use of the hotline may be subject to a charge.

The Service Hotline should under no circumstances be considered a substitute for user training for software and hardware or reading the manual, nor does it provide support for third-party products.

18.2. Special warranty conditions for PC, notebook, pocket PC (PDA), devices with navigation functions (PNA), telephone devices, mobile telephones and devices with a memory function

Should any of the supplied options (e.g. memory cards, etc.) have a fault, you are entitled to a repair or replacement. The warranty covers material and labour costs for restoring the functionality of the product concerned.

The warranty can be invalidated if any damage to the product itself or the supplied options results from the addition of any hardware to your product that is not produced or distributed by the warranty provider.

A limited warranty is provided for supplied software. This applies to a pre-installed operating system and also to supplied programs. For software supplied with the device by the warranty provider, a warranty is issued that any data media, e.g. discs and CD-ROMs on which the software is supplied, shall be free from faults in terms of their materials and workmanship for a period of 90 days following purchase. In the event of a faulty data medium being supplied, the warranty provider shall replace the faulty data medium free of charge; any further claims are excluded. Excluding the warranty for data media, all software is supplied without warranty. Furthermore,

it is not warranted that this software shall function without interruption or errors or that it will meet your requirements. In the case of map material supplied for a device with navigation functions, no warranty is provided for its completeness.

It may be necessary to delete all data from the device in order to repair it. Please ensure that you have a backup copy for all of the data on the device before sending back the device. We expressly point out that the factory settings will be restored in the event of a repair. The warranty provider assumes no liability for the cost of a software configuration, lost revenue, loss of data or software, or other consequential damages.

18.3. Special warranty conditions for repair on site or replacement on site

If there is an entitlement to on-site repair or replacement, the specific warranty terms and conditions for on-site repair or replacement shall apply to your product.

The following provisions must be ensured by you for carrying out repairs or replacements on site:

• Personnel from the warranty provider who arrive at your premises for the above-mentioned purpose must have unrestricted, safe and immediate access to the devices.
• Telecommunication facilities required by these personnel for the proper execution of your order, for testing and diagnostic purposes or for remedying faults must be provided by you at your own expense.
• You shall be personally responsible for restoring your own application software after completion of the service by the warranty provider.
• You shall be personally responsible for configuring and connecting any existing external devices after completion of the service by the warranty provider.
• The free cancellation period for repairs or replacements on site is at least 48 hours, thereafter we shall invoice you for any costs resulting from a late or missing cancellation.
