6. Operation

Caution!
If you point the air fl ow at other people, animals or
objects (e.g. windows), this could cause injuries
and damage. Check that all the components are
correctly seated.
•
Point the air flow away from yourself.
•
Never point the air flow at other people, ani-
mals or objects.
•
Do not blow away any hard objects such as
stones or branches.
6.1 Switching the equipment on/off (Fig. 10)
This equipment comes with an On/Off slide switch
(Item 2).
•
To switch on, press the slide switch to the
right into the housing (ON position). The
equipment will blow at its lowest level.
•
To switch off, press the slide switch to the left
into the housing (OFF position).
6.2 Speed control (Fig. 10)
The equipment comes with electronic speed
control for setting the continuous blowing velocity.
Four blowing velocity levels are possible.
1. Switch on the equipment (section 6.1). The
equipment will blow at its lowest level. One
bar will appear on the display (Item 3a).
2. You can increase the blowing velocity by pres-
sing the SPEED pushbutton (Item 3b). Bars
appear on the display (Item 3a) according to
the selected blowing velocity.
1 bar = lowest blowing velocity
4 bars = highest blowing velocity
3. If you press the SPEED pushbutton (Item 3b)
again when the highest blowing velocity is
active, the equipment will return to the lowest
blowing velocity.
Use the equipment only with the blowing velo-
city needed for the job.
6.3 Turbo mode (Fig. 10)
If you need a higher blowing velocity for a short
time, you can press the TURBO button (Item 3c).
Pressing the TURBO button will increase the
speed for a short time, providing the maximum
blowing velocity. All the bars will appear in the
display (Item 3a). Important: To minimize noise
and maximize battery operating time, you should
not press the TURBO button any longer than ne-
cessary.

6.4 Blowing foliage
•
Turn on the equipment (see section 6.1).
•
Set the desired blowing velocity with the
speed controller (see section 6.2).
•
Direct the air stream forward and walk slowly
to blow foliage or garden refuse into a pile or
to remove it from hard-to-reach places.
•
To increase the blowing velocity for a short
time, use TURBO mode (see section 6.3).
Danger!
Never gather (blow) hot, combustible or explosive
materials into piles.
6.5 Using the roof guttering cleaning set
(only GP-LB 18/200 Li GK)
Danger!
•
Electric shock can cause fatal injury! Keep
well away from overhead power cables.
•
Wear eye, head and hearing protection!
•
All bystanders must be kept at least 10m from
the machine.
•
Be careful not to be hit by objects lying in the
roof guttering.
•
Hold the equipment with both hands.
•
Hold the final bend (Fig. 8a/Item 7) so that it
enters the roof guttering at a slight angle. The
opening must point away from yourself so that
you will not be hit by objects lying in the roof
guttering.
•
Turn on the equipment (see section 6.1).
•
Set the desired blowing velocity with the
speed controller (see section 6.2).
•
Move slowly in order to free the roof gutting
of debris.
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the battery pack before starting
any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the mo-
tor housing free of dirt and dust as far as pos-
sible. Wipe the equipment with a clean cloth
or blow it with compressed air at low pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
