SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Safety while operating the blower S This garden blower/vacuum is only designed for blowing away or removal of leaves and other debris on the ground. S Do not allow bystanders or animals to be in the work area, i.e. 15 meters from the operator. S The blower may throw objects at high velocity that can ricochet and hit the operator. This may cause serious eye damage. S Never point the blower nozzle toward people or animals. S Stop the engine before fitting or disman- tling accessories or other components. S Never operate the blower if any of the guards are missing. S Never operate the blower in poorly venti- lated spaces where exhaust fumes might otherwise be inhaled. S Stop the engine before refueling. Move the unit at least 3 meters from fueling site before attempting to start. S The catalytic muffler is extremely hot while the blower is running and after it has stopped. The same applies when the blower is running at idling speed. Be aware of the danger of fire, especially while operating the blower near flammable materials and/or where flammable fumes are present. S Be careful, particularly if left hand operation is applied. Avoid any direct body contact with inlet cover area. Keep jewelry, loose clothing, or clothing with loosely hanging straps, ties, tassels, etc., away from inlet cover area. S Do not operate the blower while standing on a ladder or a stand. S Secure the machine during transport. Other safety measures S Operate the blower only at reasonable hours, i.e. not early in the morning or late at night when people might be disturbed. Comply with times listed in local ordinances. Usual recommendations are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Saturday. S Operate the blower at the lowest possible throttle setting to do the job. S Check the condition of the blower before operation, especially the muffler, air intake and air filter. S Use a rake or a broom to loosen ground debris before blowing. S Under dusty conditions, slightly spray the work area with a hose. S Conserve water by using blowers instead of hoses for many lawn and garden applications, including areas such as roof gutters, screens, patios and gardens etc. S Watch out for children, pets, open windows or vehicles, and blow debris safely away. S Use the full nozzle extension so the air stream can work close to the ground. S After using the blower, clean up and dispose of debris in trash receptacles. 115277126 Rev. 2 5/1/10 English--- 5
