During Operation
•
Always keep a fire extinguisher near
the Turbo Vac during operation.
•
Keep clothing and all body parts away
from rotating parts.
•
When sweeping material into the
machine, make certain there are no
foreign materials such as rocks, cans,
bottles or other hard materials
included. Sweeping hard materials will
reduce the life of the plastic liner in the
blower housing.
•
If a foreign object should strike the
broom or blower mechanism and
cause an unusual noise or vibration,
shut the engine off immediately and
allow it to come to a complete stop.

nuts, fasteners or parts.
