Poor suction
When suction rapidly decreases, it may be due to excessively clogged pipe.
You can briey turn the lever to blower, which will blow out whatever is clogging the bag.
When suction gradually decreases, it may be that the bag is dirty.
You can brush off dust or wash the bag in water as necessary. Dry it before using.
In case of any other trouble, refer to trouble shooting in the Operator’s Manual of each blower.
Important:
Poor suction due to a dirty bag will result in high engine revolutions, which may cause severe engine damage.
Follow the instructions for operation in the Operator’s Manual of each blower.
