Additional safety rules for petrol blower vacs
• Do not operate in a hazardous location. Such areas include where there is a risk
of explosion of petrol fumes, leaking gas or explosive dust.
• Do not operate in a confined area. Exhaust gases, smoke or fumes could reach
dangerous concentrations.
• Protect your blower vac. This blower vac is NOT WEATHERPROOF and should not
be exposed to direct sunlight, high ambient temperature and damp, wet or high
humidity conditions.
• Do not smoke while refuelling. This is potentially dangerous as it may ignite the
fuel and cause an explosion.
• Take care not to spill fuel. When refuelling the blower vac ensure that the motor
has been switched off. Prevent the spilling of fuel as this may also ignite with the
hot motor. Never refuel whilst the engine running.
• Be careful where you store the blower vac. Store the blower vac in a dry area
away from flammable liquids.
• Keep your distance. The blower vac emits exhaust fumes. Ensure bystanders keep
a safe distance.
• Ensure you use oil-mix fuel. Ensure that you mix 40 parts unleaded fuel to 1
part engine grade oil. If not, the engine will overheat and cause damage to your
blower vac.
• Never fill fuel tank indoors. Never fill fuel tank when engine is running or hot.
Do not smoke when filling fuel tank.
• Stop the engine before re-fuelling.
• Stop the engine and disconnect the spark plug wire:
– If the blower vac vac starts to vibrate abnormally (find and remove the cause of
the vibration immediately).
• Reduce the throttle before turning off the engine and turn the fuel off when you
have finished blowing or vacuuming.
• The user is responsible for the safety of other people, animals and objects in the
working area. Keep children and domestic animals at a safe distance while the
blower vac is in use.
