How to put together the hand-held Craftsman 12 amp Corded Leaf Blower/Vacuum Mulcher.
No worries. Assembling the tube blower is pretty easy. It’s even easier to open the vacuum latch and lock in the vacuum tube. If this video helped you, please like it and subscribe to our channel.

    I felt the same way. I said to myself I’m not dumb. How can this be? More often than not , engineers draw diagrams and ask other engineers to see if they understand them. They should be asking the user to see if the diagrams are understood. Then I thought if I don’t get it, others won’t either. Thus this video. Anyway, glad it helped.

One question, after using the vacuum and mulching tool with the bag, I put the blower nozzle back on and the unit won't come back on. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I put the vacuum part back on just to see if it would work and it works as expected. Not sure why the unit will not come on with the vacuum piece attached. It worked the first time.

  • @ezreklama

    @ezreklama

    Жыл бұрын

    Good question. I haven’t used mine so much to reach that point. But it seems that that you can access the blades from two places. One , when you open the air component to attach the tube like I show you 1:10 sec into the video, thru 1:40 and the blades are visible and two, you can see some of the blade where you insert the air bag. Check the air intake for dirt, debris and anything that might block airflow. Rotate the blade and blow air into it and/or using long pipe brush with flexible handle comes to mind. Make sure you unplugged the power source first before you do anything. Safety comes first. Maybe someone else has more experience in this area and can offer some advice? Any tips are welcome. Wish I could tell you exactly what to do but I have never encountered this problem. Let’s hear from other people or last but not least call technical support from the company and consult the manual.

    I’m assuming the other 3 power chords were tested and had power flowing when plugged. Sometimes the reset button shuts off when a line is overloaded or a chord (wire) is wet at the tip. All else, I would simply return the contraption for a refund or exchange. You have a one year warranty from the date of purchase. Sometimes you get a 🍋.

    @@ezreklama Well I've had it for a couple years. I took out the 20 screws holding it together and checked the electrical switch and all appeared in working order. The vacuum worked so it wasn't the switch. What I discovered is the "locking mechanism" wasn't fully engaged. There's a safety (?) locking mechanism (the black intake guard) that needs to be fully rotated. Because it's plastic it looked fully rotated, but it wasn't. I lubed it up with grease and it rotated to the fully engaged setting and my blower activated. I'm so tired of fixing lawn equipment. I don't mind paying good money for something, but damn, everything is cheaply made. I once had the original "weed wacker" that lasted me over 20 years! Those days are long gone!

If your machine requires repair, I suggest you try this site or refer to the manual. www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/Leaf-Blower-Repair/27-317--/Craftsman-Leaf-Blower-Troubleshooting. This video offers no more than putting together the main components. You can always ask the people who sold it to you. They often know a lot more information about what they sell.

    If your power does not work, take it back to the store. You have a one year warranty on it and bring your receipt with you.

    Try another outlet. If it still does not work, return it. If you still have ur receipt you can exchange it. Typically equipment has a minimum one year warranty.
