WARNING
When you pull the starter grip, do not
wrap the starter rope around your hand.
Do not let the grip snap back, but guide
the starter rope to rewind it properly.
Failure to follow this procedure may
result in injury to your hand or fingers
and may damage the starter
mechanism.
WARNING
Once the engine has started,
immediately blip the throttle trigger,
which should release the starting throttle
and allow the engine to slow down to
idle.
WARNING
This unit is equipped with an ignition
system that is normally in operational
readiness. After the setting lever is used
to stop the engine, it automatically
springs back to the "on" position. If the
engine is warm, it may be possible to
start it by simply pulling the starter rope,
with no further adjustments. To reduce
the risk of injury, be particularly alert to
keep children away from the unit.
During Operation
Holding and controlling the power tool
The blower is designed for single-
handed operation with either the right or
left hand on the control handle.
Special care must be taken in slippery
conditions (wet ground, snow) and in
difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch for
hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,
roots and ditches to avoid stumbling. For
better footing, clear away fallen
6
branches, scrub and cuttings. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, never work on a ladder, in a tree
or any other insecure support. Never
hold the machine above shoulder
height.
Working conditions
Operate and start your power tool only
outdoors in a well ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.
WARNING
As soon as the engine is
running, this product gen-
erates toxic exhaust
fumes containing chemi-
cals, such as unburned
hydrocarbons (including
benzene) and carbon
monoxide, that are
known to cause respira-
tory problems, cancer,
birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Some
of the gases (e.g. carbon
monoxide) may be color-
less and odorless. To
reduce the risk of serious
or fatal injury/illness from
inhaling toxic fumes,
never run the machine
indoors or in poorly venti-
lated locations.

WARNING
Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction.
Substantial or repeated inhalation of
dust and other airborne contaminants, in
particular those with a smaller particle
size, may cause respiratory or other
illnesses. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work
practices, such as operating the unit so
that the wind or operating process
directs any dust raised by the power tool
away from the operator. Follow the
recommendations of
EPA/OSHA/NIOSH and occupational
and trade associations with respect to
dust ("particulate matter"). When the
inhalation of dust cannot be
substantially controlled, i.e., kept at or
near the ambient (background) level, the
operator and any bystanders should
wear a respirator approved by
NIOSH/MSHA for the type of dust
encountered.
WARNING
If the substance being blown is a
commercial substance, review,
understand and follow all warnings and
instructions contained in the material
safety data sheet for that substance
and/or consult the material
manufacturer/supplier. The state of
California and some other authorities,
for instance, have published lists of
substances known to cause cancer,
reproductive toxicity, etc.
