OPERATION
Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects
away from all openings. Always stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts
have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit.
Blower housing may contain shredder blades and other sharp edges that can cause serious injuries
if touched, even if engine is off and blades are not moving. Wear gloves to protect hands from sharp
edges and hot surfaces.
Operation of this equipment may create sparks that can start fires. This unit is equipped with a spark
arrestor to prevent discharge of hot particles from the engine. Metal blade use also can create
sparks if the blade strikes rocks, metal, or other hard objects. Contact local fire authorities for laws
or regulations regarding fire prevention requirements.

performance, or severe engine damage and void the product warranty. Read and follow instructions in the
Storage section of this manual.
