OPERATING TIPS
• While vacuuming or blowing debris, hold the unit with
the muffler side facing away from your body and clothes.
• To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with sound
level(s), hearing protection is required.
• To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting
rotating parts, stop the engine before installing or
removing attachments. Do not operate without guard(s)
in place.
• Operate power equipment only at reasonable hours-
not early in the morning or late at night when people
might be disturbed. Comply with times listed in local
ordinances. Usual recommendations are 9:00 a.m. to
5:00 p.m., Monday though Saturday.
• To reduce noise levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
• To reduce noise levels, operate power blowers at the
lowest possible throttle speed to do the job.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
• In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when
water is available.
• Conserve water by using power blowers instead of
hoses for many lawn and garden applications, including
areas such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches,
and gardens.
• Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars. Blow debris away safely.
• Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream
can work close to the ground.
• After using blowers and other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
