2 Stroke Petrol Leaf Blower Vacuum

Clearing leaves from a garden can be a labourous task without the aid of a Petrol Leaf Blower Vacuum . Trees can be an added source of enjoyment in the summer months and in the fall with their spectacular leaf colours however some trees known as deciduous “which comes from the Latin word, to fall” will lose their leaves in the autumn and can create an unsightly mess on lawns and drives.

Before the introduction of the petrol leaf blower vacuum machine people would have to rake the leaves and put them in a wheel barrow. Which would be full in no time because of the bulkiness of the product and hoped the day was calm so that when transporting them, they would not blow around the drive and garden again.

The Petrol leaf blower Vacuum is a welcome tool when tiding up the garden of leaves in the autumn months. These power full 2 stroke petrol engines are light weight easy to start and can blow leaves with an air speed of over 200 mph from a 25cc engine. Not only can you blow the leaves to one corner but you can vacuum them into a bag attached to the machine which usually has capacity of around 45 litres.

Another advantage which comes with some of these machines is the ability to mulch the leaves which means you will not be required to empty the bag so often compared to a standard machine. The petrol blower vacuum has big advantages over an electric model. The petrol model is much more power full, can be used in any corner of the garden no matter how far away from your house. It is not confined to cable length like the electric model and can be used in all weather conditions.

Care should be taken when mixing the petrol or gas with oil for your 2 stroke machine , check the manufactures guide for the correct ratio of oil and petrol. The small quantity of oil that is added to the petrol is the only lubrication for the engine piston and too little of this oil will cause overheating and do some serious costly damage.…

How to Swim Freestyle

Do you struggle with or do not even attempt freestyle swimming? Can you only manage a couple of lengths of the pool before you are out of breath? Does it seem that it is too much of a struggle to swim freestyle when you can swim comfortably up and down the pool using breaststroke?

Wouldn’t it be good to be able to swim freestyle like that person in the next lane? I think it is only when you learn freestyle that you truly appreciate the feeling as you glide through the water with a fast, smooth and powerful stroke. Also, your swimming times per length will reduce, and with it the number of strokes you take with each length. That’s right, when you develop a proper swimming stroke you go faster, for longer with less strokes, looking and feeling good in the water.

In order to develop a good freestyle technique the main areas I keep in mind for each swimming session are:

Body Position: I believe this is the most important basic to learn. I often see people swimming with their head out of the water and the rest of their stroke suffering as a result.

Breathing: To achieve the correct body position it is imperative to learn how to breathe correctly. A good breathing technique allows for a smooth stroke as you are no longer feeling breathless or struggling for air.

Correct Arm Entry: It is important to concentrate on the whole stroke, not just the arm entry, but faults in this area will lead to a poor stroke. I only keep two thoughts in mind, to enter the left/right hands at roughly 11 and 1 o’clock respectively and to think of pushing my arms into the sleeve of a shirt when they enter the water.

Body Rotation: Correct body rotation allows you to complete the whole stroke, giving you forwards momentum whilst enabling you to breathe more efficiently.

Kick: A good kick will again help with your forwards momentum, but it has to be controlled and to be in time with your stroke.

Also, some of the health benefits if you can learn how to swim freestyle:

* Low impact exercise reducing the risk of injury.

* Longer swimming sessions leading to an improved level of fitness.

* A more powerful and efficient swimming stroke that brings you confidence in the water.

* A complete upper body workout without those weights, watch those muscles grow.

* To be able to participate in open water swimming events or triathlon.

* Respect from others now that you have learnt how to swim freestyle.

All the above are perfectly achievable by swimming freestyle and to learn does not have to be a frustrating or difficult process. The key is to know the correct drills and to practice these in the correct order until a freestyle stroke becomes second nature to you.…
