• Minimise the blowing time by lightly wetting dusty
areas or using spray equipment.
• Reduce water consumption by using blowers instead
of water hoses for different applications around the
lawn and garden, such as lattices, screens, grills,
porches, etc
• Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks,
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move
suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping
ground.
• Never put the machine down with the engine running
unless you have it in clear sight.
• Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide,
which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For this
reason you should not start or run the machine
indoors, or anywhere that is poorly ventilated.
• The blower must not be used while on a ladder or
scaffolding.
• CAUTION! Do not use the machine unless you are
able to call for help in the event of an accident.

Basic working techniques

WARNING! Watch out for thrown objects.
!
Always wear eye protection. Stones,
rubbish, etc. can be thrown up into the
eyes causing blindness or serious injury.
Keep unauthorised persons at a
distance. Children, animals, onlookers
and helpers should be kept outside the
safety zone of 15 m. Stop the machine
immediately if anyone approaches.
WARNING! Always stop the engine
!
before cleaning.
The speed of the air jet is regulated by means of the
throttle. Select the speed best suited for respective tasks.
You can set the throttle position using the throttle position
settings and by doing so not need to hold your nger on
the throttle all the time you are using the blower. Full
throttle is obtained when the control is held back fully.
• Check that the air intake is not blocked, for example,
by leaves or rubbish. A clogged air intake reduces the
machine's blowing capacity and increases the
engine's working temperature, which can result in
engine failure. Stop the engine and remove the object.
• Be aware of the wind direction. Work with the wind to
make your work easier.
• Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream
can work close to the ground.
• Always check to be sure that no debris has been
blown onto someone else's property.
WORKING TECHNIQUES
• Never point a blower tube toward an open ame to
avoid the possibility of igniting the unit, causing injury
to yourself or damage to surroundings.
• Using the blower to move large piles is time
consuming and creates unnecessary noise.
• Keep a good balance and a rm foothold.
• When work is nished the machine should be stored
vertically.
