Background

The Craftsman Blower 358.797170 is a gasoline-powered device designed to handle a variety of yard cleaning tasks. This blower is equipped with a 25cc, 2-cycle engine, capable of generating an airspeed of 200 MPH and an air volume of 400 CFM. This makes it well-suited for sweeping debris or grass clippings from driveways, sidewalks, and patios, and for blowing grass clippings, straw, or leaves into piles.

In addition to its blowing function, this Craftsman model can also be used as a vacuum, allowing it to pick up dry material such as leaves, grass, small twigs, and bits of paper. In vacuum mode, the device is most effective when operated at high speed and moved slowly back and forth over the material. The vacuum tube should be kept about an inch above the ground for best results. The product is designed to be reliable and durable, requiring regular maintenance for optimal performance.
