How does a garden vacuum cleaner work?
The main working part of any blower is the motor. It forces a centrifugal fan to work, which, depending on the direction of rotation, can either blow out or suck air in.If the “air blowing” mode is on, the debris is collected in a heap with an air stream from a long pipe. In the “suction” mode, the garbage is collected in a special bag with simultaneous grinding.
What types of blowers are there?
Depending on the power, there are manual and self-propelled blowers. The former can operate from an electrical network or from a battery. The latter usually run on gasoline and have great power, but produce a lot of noise.
This garden tool is produced by many companies, but one of the leaders on the market is the Japanese company Makita. It has existed for more than 100 years, and has been represented on the Russian market since 1935. At the moment, products assembled at production facilities in China come to our market.
All of the company's products, including blowers, comply with the international quality standard ISO 9002, which is similar to Russian GOSTs - but on an international scale.
