Can I buy a new bag for my Blower Vac? zip broken?

Blower Vac 1800w PWR 1800 BVA 230-240v-50 Hz Serial No:0343 The zip on the collecting bag is irrepairable. Where can I buy a new bag? The blower is working perfectly and the envy of my neighbour !

Hi Mr Renton ........... Yes, you can buy replacement bags for this blower vac from Solent Tools at £17.95p. Just Google them.
I don't think I paid £17.95p originally for the blower vac!
If it is the zip that has gone, you can prolong the life of the bag by sewing up the broken part of the zip. It does make the hole smaller but you get another season out of the bag. Also regular WD40 or Nylon Lube on the zip and always store it dry to prolong its life!
The alternative is to cut down all the deciduous trees and replace with palms or evergreens!
Best regards......
