• Having arrived at the work terrain, one should reduce speed: leaves will not be blown away
properly at a high speed and this will thus reduce efficiency.
• The air velocity can be controlled by adjusting the engine regime. This is done by decreasing
throttle.
• As soon as the engine is running, the impeller will rotate as well and hence consistently
develop air. Consequently, if one wants to use traction for transporting the machine between
two work zones, one should not forget that air will be emerging from the discharge nozzle at
high velocity. To reduce the risk of damage from stone chipping, the air valves must always be
turned upwards. Their position is controlled with the operating lever on the handlebar. Throt-
tle must be reduced as well.
• In case of an emergency, simply release the dead-man’s handle: this will cut off the engine.
For your information:
If removing leaves, one should obviously not work against the wind, otherwise
the leaves that are blown free by the artificial air stream will be placed back onto
the previously cleaned work area by the natural wind.
Optional mountable seat
• When using the mountable seat, caution must be paid when turning
the machine: making very short turns could cause entrapment of the
lower limbs.
• The seat is equipped with two foot rests. These should be used at all
time. Failure to do so could cause the feet to get entrapped under the
machine, resulting in injuries to joints and ligaments.
• A brake has been provided near the right foot rest.
9.6 Stopping the engine
Warning:
Be aware that the impeller will continue to turn for some time once the ma-
chine has been turned off.
• In case of an emergency, simply release the dead-man’s handle: this will cut off the engine.
• To stop the engine, switch the throttle or turn the knob into the “OFF” position.
• If the machine is equipped with a fuel tap, close it.
