WARNING: The engine contains no oil when shipped. Read the Engine Instruction Manual and add the
proper type and amount of oil and gas before starting engine.
1. Read engine manual carefully. Be sure to know how to start

and stop engine operating unit.

2. The unit is designed to operate at full throttle, and will work

effectively by either pushing or pulling.

3. To clean an area, start at the outer perimeter and blow the

material toward the center.

4. When cleaning large areas or if debris is very dense, it may

be best to split the area into smaller plots and blow the material
into several small piles rather than one large one. As the area
being cleaned becomes smaller, reduce the engine speed to
prevent blowing the collected debris into the area already
cleaned.
