OPERATION OF BLOWER
Allow the engine to warm up for a few minutes.
FRADAN BB-70 can be run at any speed between an idle of 2800 RPM and maximum load speed of 7300 RPM.
The velocity of the air stream can therefore readily be controlled from a gentle breeze to a high speed blast mov-
ing at 210 MPH, which will move garden leaves, twigs, and other debris from lawns and paved areas.
Use a low speed to blow dry leaves from a lawn or flower bed.
Use a medium to high speed to clean grass and leaves from walks, patios, and driveways.
Use a high speed to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles or cans from driveways, streets, parking lots, or stadiums.
• CAUTION
Do not point the blower pipe in the direction of people or pets. Always wear safety glasses and use a face filter
mask. Read carefully “Safety Rules and Precautions.”
