it's hard for me to unsnap the tubes from the motor. any advice?
I bought this blower about 6 months ago partly with the help of your video. very happy 🙂
neighbor was using his old beat up backpack Echo blower and, while it wouldn't have beat it out if his blower was in good condition, I was pushing rocks, dirt, and grass clippings off of the driveway at about twice his speed.
(edit: neighbor was cleaning up my driveway as a favor and I jumped in to help; we're not comparing apples and oranges, but the same driveway at the same time)
Thanks
How did you get the plastic cover that covers the motor fan?
Hello ? Where's the rest of the video ? You didn't show the end result on what the shredded leaves look like after being vacuumed up.
Thank you! 🙂
Sooo you don’t know what that black circle that you place on the bottom function is???? It doesn’t just hold the tube in place it goes over the intake
Does it slow down the airflowwww?????
Thank you. Could not have pit it together without your video.
Excellent video, clear and concise. Thanks!
When using the vacuum, can you blow it out with a longer blower hose? I’m trying to figure out a way to distribute a large pile of mulch like the bark blower companies do. Having trouble finding the right product.
0:52 ..cracks, crevice’s and tight areas..everything's concentrated out of the narrow point…very nice…
I was a happy user until the motor failed. Some other users have the same problem but replacement electric parts are not available from the manufacturer. Please read this: https://www.bobvila.com/posts/82915-defond-cym-1213-switch.
I wish you touched on the Shredz-All Shred Ring, only the plus model has it but I'm not so sure if i need to reduce them down to that much. The finer the mulch the heavier the bag & I've already heard it's hard to wield.
Not so good for blowing anything other than small patios but works great for drying my cars after I wash them. My blower is a backpack blower with 790 CFM.
i need to replace my vacum tub for my ultra plus blower vac 51621 3180 18312 where can i get one ?
Ive got beech nut shell's everywhere, do you think this would suck them up?
you've save my life with this video. thank you.
Loved your instructions and demo. Much better than manual that came with appliance. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank so much!!!!
awesome video! thank you

Good video, right to the point
The first direction is to NOT plug in the blower until the attachments are in place. She’s spinning the impeller while it’s plugged in. Naughty, naughty!
Great review, thank you!! I just bought one and the Toro assembly instructions are useless!
Thank you. Very helpful 😉
Thank you! Your video allowed me to set up my new Toro Blower, which I had no idea what to do. 🤣Once again, thank you.
That thing really sucks!…………Get it?
I own this, and the downside of it is I have tiny fragile twigs that fall from camphor trees and afrer a couple seasons, they (along with any gravel pebbles that get sucked up) dull the blade of the impeller. The problem is by the time you buy a new impeller part and a new bag (which will start coming apart after a couple seasons) you may as well just buy a whole new machine. So be aware, it works, but you may need to replace it after 2-3 seaons. I will say that it mulches leaves beautifully into tiny pieces and I just empty the bag out over my flower beds, level it out, and put any left over in my composter. Once that impeller needs replacing it will no longer mulch as fine as desired. If you can replace the impeller one year and the bag the next and keep alternating that's one approach, but from the cost of the two items and shipping, it's better to just replace the whole unit (which sucks for land fill).
Wondering whether this or any blower can be used to pick up leaves over redwood bark. Would the vacuum attachment pick up the leaves and not the bark?
Exactly what I was looking for , great , easy demo . Subscribed .
Works very well. Bestfor.Garden also recommend I’ve only been using the Tru Fuel in this to prevent carburetor issues, doesn’t use much fuel to blow off the sidewalk and large driveway.
