UNIT OPERATION
(Cont.)
OPERATING THE BLOWER:
DANGER! Do not pass by or stand on the air discharge side of any leaf blower with the
engine running. High velocity discharge can easily turn harmless debris into dangerous
flying projectiles, causing severe injury.
TO BLOW DEBRIS OUT TOWARD FRONT OF UNIT:
•
Open the forward air deflector door, mounted on the front of the discharge end of the
blower, by pushing the control lever toward the front of the machine. This feature is ideal for
such things as blowing debris from a wall or fence. Adjust engine speed to increase or
decrease air discharge rate.
NEVER INSERT ANY BODY PART OR OTHER FOREIGN
OBJECT IN ANY OPENING WHILE THE MACHINE IS RUNNING .
TO BLOW DEBRIS OUT TOWARD SIDE OF UNIT:
•
Close the front air deflector door by pulling the control lever back toward the rear of the
machine. This will direct air out through the side discharge opening. Adjust engine speed to
increase or decrease air discharge rate.
NEVER INSERT ANY BODY PART OR OTHER
FOREIGN OBJECT IN ANY OPENING WHILE THE MACHINE IS RUNNING .
HINTS FOR EFFECTIVE OPERATION:
•
For operator ease and maneuverability, push down on the upper handle while walking so
that the machine balances on the rear wheels. This will be especially useful when turning
corners.
•
When blowing dry debris, set blower discharge to lower rate; when blowing wet or frozen
debris, increase discharge rate.
•
Practice makes perfect. Allow yourself time to become familiar with your machine. In very
little time you will become quite proficient at debris removal with your Giant-Blo Jr.
