If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. Preparation of the blower vac prior to use The ST1800 blower vac requires some assembly prior to use for the first time. This includes the fitting of the blow/vac tube to the housing, fitting the chute wheel assembly and the fitting of the collection bag. This section also covers the fitting and removal of the shoulder strap, and adjustment of the auxilary handle. Fitting the blow/vac tube to the housing 1. To fit the blow/vac tube into the housing, first move the upper and lower retaining clips away from the entry point of the housing. 2. Fit the tube into the entry of the housing with the large round tube section upper most in the housing. 3. Push the tube fully into the housing. 4. Move the upper retaining clip down on to the tube, and push the rubber section over the raised section of the tube. Repeat the same for the lower retaining clip. 5. The blow/vac tube is now securely in place. Removing the blow/vac tube 1. Grasp the rubber tab on the upper and lower retaining clip and pull away from the tube. This releases the retaining clips. 2. Slide the tube outwards from the housing using a slight wobble type action. Note. The blower vac will not operate if the blow/vac tube is not correctly fitted. This is a safety feature to prevent accidental contact with the impellor. To fit the collection bag Prior to fitting the collection bag, the blow/vac tube must be fitted to the housing. 1. Attach the strap (1) to the hook underneath the blow/ vac tube (a). 2. Attach the push-on plastic connector (2) to the outlet tube of the housing (b). Push the fitting of the collection bag directly onto the outlet until it “clicks” into position. 3. Connect the last strap (3) onto the hook on the underside of the blower vac housing (c). To remove the collection bag, disconnect the attachments in the reverse order. When removing the fitting on the outlet, first depress the two buttons as indicated, and then pull downwards on the fitting. Finally, remove the strap from the hook under the blow/vac tube. Fitting the auxiliary handle For full control of the blower vac during use the auxiliary handle should always be fitted and adjusted to the most suitable position for the operator. 1. To fit the handle to the housing, fully unscrew and remove the adjusting knob and bolt from the auxiliary handle. 3 2 1 a c b 8 2. Slide the auxiliary handle over the housing as per the attached diagram, ensuring the handle is orientated so as the serrated or pattern surface aligns with the same pattern surface on the housing. 3. Fit the auxiliary locking knob and bolt through the handle and housing from the left hand side of the blower vac (same side as the blower vacuum selector) and tighten in a clockwise direction. 4. To adjust the angle of the handle, loosen the auxiliary locking knob (rotate in an anti-clockwise direction) and move the handle to the preferred position and then tighten the knob firmly. Shoulder strap Your ST1800 blower vac is supplied with a shoulder strap to assist with user comfort during use. The strap assembly can be fitted or removed from the top of the housing via the metal buckle on the end of the strap. 1. To open the buckle, remove the small retaining screw and washer, which retains the buckle pin in position. After removing the small screw & washer, remove the larger pin from the buckle. If the buckle was on the hosing, by removing the pin, the buckle will be free of the housing. 2. If you are fitting the buckle to the housing, slide the pin through the one side of the buckle and then through the housing. On the other side of the housing allow the pin to again pass through the hole in the buckle. Fit the small washer on to the retaining screw, and fit the screw into the end of the pin and tighten firmly. 3. To adjust the length of the shoulder strap, slide the plastic adjusting buckle up or down the strap, A quick release is also fitted to the strap which allows the strap to be opened, but does not allow the strap to be removed from the blower vac.
