Garden Groom Midi Volume Bag Instructions

The Garden Groom Midi has been designed to

trim hedge growth of 150mm or less. However,

it will trim exceptionally long growth, but this

operation will inevitably result in a lower rate

of capture (on vertical cuts only),due to the

1st Pass

Check the assembly for damage and ensure all the component

parts are in perfect condition and firmly connected together

before proceeding.

Preparing your Volume Bag

Lay the hose, extension tube and bag out in a straight line

adjacent to the hedge to be trimmed, positioning the bag

behind the anticipated direction of progress. Ensure the hose

is not twisted and the bag is sitting square on its flat base.

Attach the extension tube (Fig.2) to your Garden Groom Midi

as illustrated (Fig.3), by offering the inlet of the tube to the

exhaust of the Groom. Lift the back of the tube up to the

underside of the machine, ensuring the interlock peg is

aligned with the interlock switch, in the same way as the

conventional container

Secure the tube with the retaining clip.

Plug your Garden Groom Midi into the mains electrical supply

and switch on.

In some circumstances you may wish to adopt a vertical technique (see fig.2 below),

released on the rear handle. The flexible hose and volume bag

will inflate, providing a clear passage for the debris to flow from

the Groom exhaust to the bag.

As progress is made, to avoid any restriction of movement

and strain on the tube/hose coupling, occasionally pull the

bag along by the hose in advance of the cutting location.

During use, minor kinking of the hose is acceptable, however,

ensure the tube is not twisted, as this will restrict the flow of

waste material.

It will be necessary to periodically shake the debris down

the hose to ensure smooth conveyance of material into the

volume bag.

To trim exceptionally long growth (within

the recommended cutting diameters),

we advise the following techniques:

Storage

Ensure the tube, hose and bag are completely free of waste

material before storing away.

Desired

Level

Store in a dry clear place free of hazards that could cause

damage to any of the component parts.

Safety

Check periodically there are no breaks or damage to the

volume bag assembly.

The Garden Groom Midi should never be used without the

extension tube or hose in position.

Never insert your hand up the extension tube.

Warning

Always unplug your Garden Groom Midi from the mains electrical

supply before carrying out any mainteneance.
