The DXV09PA has a blower port that is designed to move sawdust and fallen leaves, with three extra nozzle adapters to shape the airflow. The 5 peak HP motor sits on a 9 gallon poly tank, and the hose is an upgraded design that is more durable and flexible than the old one. A 10 ft cord and a wide drum make it a general garage vac with a real blower mode.
It does not list a blower CFM figure, and the exhaust is dirty unless you remove the filter and bag. Compared with the 8 gallon Shop-Vac 5922805, which lists 95 CFM, you are paying for hose quality and build. If blower airflow matters most, the published CFM is helpful. If you want a vacuum that does everything else well, this is the pick.
In ownership, the blower is a convenience: fit a hose to the exhaust port and use the nozzle, with the filter removed for dusty jobs. Keep the tank clean and the exhaust port clear. The rubberized casters help it roll across a garage floor. The three adapters are small plastic parts, so keep them in the accessory bag.
