OPERATING

 

BLOWER

  

 WARNING

Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a

poison gas.  Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious

injury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS

position unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and

body.

   

  WARNING

Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, a face filter mask
and take all safety precautions or serious personal injury may result.

Do not point the blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.

Read the Safety Section on pages 3 - 6 carefully.

IMPORTANT

To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block
blower pipe opening.

1. Use only during appropriate hours.

2. Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few minutes.

3.

PB-413H

Set engine speed with throttle lever (A).

PB-413T

Control engine speed with throttle trigger (A), or throttle position
lever (B). Rotate throttle position lever forward for lower speed,
back for higher speed.

4. Use lower speed to blow dry leaves from walks, patios and drives.

5. Additional speed may be necessary to clean grass and leaves from

a lawn or flower bed.

6. Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles

or cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.

NOTE

Never use a higher speed setting than necessary to perform a task.
Remember, the higher the engine speed, the louder the blower noise.
Minimize dust by using blower at lower speeds and by dampening
material with water/mist when necessary. Keep debris on your
property.
Be Smart - be a good neighbor.
