could become caught on controls and moving parts. Wear long pants to protect legs. To
improve your grip and protect your hands, wear heavy duty, non-slip gloves. DO wear steel-
toad safety boots with non-slip shoes. Sneakers or other smiliar type shoes do not provide
adequate protection.
DO wear an approved safety hard hat. Noise generated by the blower may damage your
hearing. Wear sound barriers (ear plugs or ear mufflers). Continuous and regular operators
should have their hearing checked regularly.
DO a visual inspection of the blower and check for damged, worn, loose, and/or broken parts.
Ensure all safety devices are operable and information decals are readable. Check to see the
blower and all related accessories are in good mechanical condition before use.
DO verify that the blower uses appropriate electrical cord and NEMA plug. For maximum pro-
tection against electrical shock, use a circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI). Electrically drive blowers (A.C.), are designed to operate ONLY from a
grounded 115 volt AC, 60Hz single-phase power source.
DO place the blower on secure footing to prevent it from shifting while in use. Such movement
can cause injury to the operator(s) or damage the blower itself.
DO turn off all controls before unplugging.
