shock or a fire. Please inspect 

the extension cord periodically.

Replace a damaged extension 

cord before use.
1. Use a heavy duty extension cord, suitable for outdoor 

use and so marked. An ordinary duty extension cord will 

cause loss of power and may overheat.

of operation.

it has been switched off. Let the motor come to a complete 

standstill before setting the tool down.

Operation

1. Hold the blower at an angle 

of approximately 45 degrees 

and sweep from side to side 

with the nozzle end about 5 to 

10cm above the ground.

2. Slowly advance keeping the 

accumulated pile of debris in 

front of you.

from the debris or blow from a greater distance from  

the debris.

to the operator, bystanders or pets. Keep bystanders and 

pets at least 5m away from the area of work and always 

wear suitable eye and ear protection, long pants and sturdy 

shoes or boots whilst operating the tool.
