Operating instructions
Stop the engine immediately if you are
approached.
Using the Vacuum Attachment
(only BG 56, BG 86, SH 56, SH 86)
For specific assembling instructions,
see the appropriate section of your
instruction manual.
Your shredder vacuum is designed for
two-handed operation. Hold and operate
the unit with your right hand on the
control handle and your left hand on the
assist handle.
To reduce the risk of injury, do not
operate the machine unless it is fully
assembled with a properly mounted
suction tube and catcher bag.
Warning!
Breathing asbestos dust is dangerous
and can cause severe or fatal injury,
respiratory illness or cancer. The use
and disposal of asbestos-containing
products have been strictly regulated
by OSHA and the Environmental Pro-
tection Agency. If you have any reason
to believe that you might be blowing or
otherwise disturbing asbestos, immedi-
ately contact your employer or a local
OSHA representative.
Warning!
Dust with silica in its composition may
contain crystalline silica. Silica is a
basic component of sand, quartz, brick,
clay, granite and numerous other min-
erals and rocks, including masonry and
concrete products. Repeated and / or
substantial inhalation of airborne crys-
talline silica can cause serious or fatal
respiratory disease, including silicosis.
In addition, the state of California and
some other authorities have listed
respirable crystalline silica as a sub-
stance known to cause cancer. When
encountering such materials, always
follow the respiratory precautions men-
tioned above
Warning!
In the event of an emergency, switch off
the engine immediately – move the
slide control / stop switch to 0 or STOP
In order to reduce
the risk of personal
or even fatal injury
to bystanders from
blown objects
keep bystanders at
least 16 feet (5m)
away when the
power tool is
running.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of personal injury, do
not direct air blast towards bystanders,
since the high pressure of the air flow
can injure eyes and can blow small
objects at great speed. Do not direct
airblast towards pets.
Warning!
The blower fan between the air intake
and output openings rotates whenever
the engine is running.
Never insert any foreign object into the
air intake of the machine or into the
nozzle of the blower. It will damage the
fan wheel and may cause serious injury
to the operator or bystanders as a
result of the object or broken parts
being thrown out at high speed.
Do not place the blower on the ground
when operating at high speed, because
small objects such as sand, grass, dust,
etc. may be pulled into the air intake
and damage the fan wheel. It is best to
turn the machine off when putting it on
the ground.
Warning!
The muffler other parts of the engine
(e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug)
become hot during operation and
remain hot for a while after stopping the
engine. To reduce risk of burns do not
touch the muffler and other parts while
they are hot.
