The product, in the report: Toro power sweep leaf blower
I’ve had this blower for many years, but when it broke I just put it away.... just now found out it was a recall item from TORO.. .. was using the blower in a normal way that I had been for several years.... moving leaves around in the yard in preparation for picking them up and putting them on my compost pile.. when all of a sudden the thing made a loud noise, began shaking uncontrollably and hurt my wrist before I could switch it off.... I looked inside and saw that the rotating turbine wheel had broken.... obviously out of balance for a wheel that spins so fast.... this was the cause of the vibration. the broken part fell out of the opening after I pulled the nozzle off to look inside. one large plastic piece and several small plastic pieces.
