Working with the leaf blower
The leaf vacuum/blower may
only be used for the follow-
ing purposes:
- As a blower to pile up dry
leaf material or to blow mate-
rial out of places that are hard
to access (e.g. under cars)
- As a suction device to suck
up dry leaf material. The
device also functions as a
shredder in the suction func-
tion. The dry leaves are
shredded and their volume
is reduced, preparing the
material for later compost-
ing if desired. The shredding
intensity depends on the size
of the leaf material and its
residual moisture. Uses other
