Most dry blowing operations are better suited to low
speed than high, while high speed is better for moving
heavier items like large debris or gravel.
Use the blower for trees, shrubs, flower beds and
hard to clean areas (Fig. 15).
Use the blower around buildings and for other normal
cleaning (Fig. 16).
