WORKING TECHNIQUES • The blower must not be used while on a ladder or scaffolding. Temporary increase of airflow 'Boost' A temporary increase in airflow, 'Boost', is used only on occasions when leaves and trash is stuck or when the normal airflow is not sufficient. In most cases, normal airflow is sufficient. An increase in airflow is used mainly for brief measures. Press the Boost button on the keypad to temporarily raise the airflow. Maximum continuous Boost is 5 seconds. • 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. If raised airflow, Boost, is used continuously for longer than 5 seconds, the airflow will return to its original level. The activation indicator (LED lamp) for the Boost function will flash until the Boost function is available again. Throttle settings control The speed of the air jet is regulated by means of the throttle. Select the speed best suited for respective tasks. • Determine the desired airflow using the throttle. • Press in the throttle position setting on the keypad. • Depress the throttle fully to obtain the desired air speed. The blower retains the latest throttle position setting in memory if the machine is shut down or when the battery is removed from the machine. English - 17
