Abstract: The invention relates to a radial blower for a work apparatus and especially for a suction/blower apparatus. The radial blower has a blower wheel (2) and a blower housing (1) which at least partially surrounds the blower wheel (2). The blower housing (1) includes a peripheral wall (3) and a side wall (4). The housing includes an intake opening (6) in the region of the blower wheel axis (5) as well as a discharge stub (7) peripherally of the blower wheel (2) in the region of the peripheral wall (3). The peripheral wall (3) and the side wall (4) are lined on the side facing toward the blower wheel (2) with a wear insert (8) configured as one piece.

Abstract: A threaded closure is provided with a receiving opening 16 in the part thereof which projects into a fuel tank. The end of a limp connecting part 13 is rotatably mounted in this recess and is however axially fixed. The threaded closure prevents damage to the sealing surface and prevents the threaded closure from becoming separated from the fuel tank so that it cannot be lost.
