of this Blower BEFORE being allowed to operate it.
Refer to OSHA 2207 (and/or applicable updated

read this Operator's Manual and view the safety and
operational information video tape supplied by the
manufacturer to familiarize each operator with its
correct operating procedures. When you are going to
utilize this Blower-DO IT RIGHT-avoid the urge not to
take the time to read this Operator's Manual BEFORE
utilizing the Blower. DO NOT OPERATE THIS
BLOWER UNTIL EACH OPERATOR COMPLETELY
COMPREHENDS THE CONTENTS OF THIS

dangerous configurations that can lead to property
damage and/or personal injury. If there are any

Blower, contact the Customer Service Department for
specific information BEFORE utilization. There is no
charge for this service.
