OPERATING THE BLOWER
See Figure 6.
Follow these tips when using the blower :
To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the center
of a pile.
To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for
many lawn and garden applications, including areas such
as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
