Method of operation • Use the blower only in good light and visibility. During cold seasons beware of slippery or wet areas, ice and snow (risk of slipping). Always ensure a safe footing. • Never work on unstable surfaces or sleep terrain. • To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not direct air blast towards bystanders, since the high pressure of the air flow could injure eyes and could blow small objects at great speed. • Never insert any foreign object into the air intake of the machine or into the nozzle of the blower. It will damage the fan wheel and may cause serious injury to the operator or bystanders as a result of the object or broken parts being thrown out at high speed. • Pay attention to the direction of the wind, i.e., do not work against the wind. • To reduce the risk of stumbling and loss of control, do not walk backward while operating the machine. • Always shut off the engine before cleaning or servicing the unit or replacing parts.
