OPERATING TIPS
S
While blowing debris, hold the unit with the
muffler side facing away from your body
and clothes (see OPERATING POSI-
TION).
S
To reduce the risk of hearing loss
associated with sound level(s), hearing
protection is required.
S
To reduce the risk of injury associated with
contacting rotating parts, stop the engine be-
fore installing or removing attachments. Do
not operate without guard(s) in place.
S
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 recom-
mendations are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday though Saturday.
S
To reduce noise levels, limit the number of
pieces of equipment used at any one time.
S
To reduce noise levels, operate power
blowers at the lowest possible throttle
speed to do the job.
S
Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris be-
fore blowing.
S
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen sur-
faces or use a mister attachment when wa-
ter is available.
S
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.
S
Watch out for children, pets, open windows,
or freshly washed cars. Blow debris away
safely.
S
Use the full blower nozzle extension so the
air stream can work close to the ground.
S
After using blowers and other equipment,
CLEAN UP! Dispose of debris in trash re-
ceptacles.

This engine is certified to operate on unleaded
petrol. Before operation, petrol must be mixed
with a good quality 2--cycle air--cooled engine oil

ratio is obtained by mixing 5 liters of unleaded
petrol with 0,125 liter of oil. DO NOT USE
automotive oil or marine oil. These oils will
cause engine damage. When mixing fuel, follow
instructions printed on oil container. Once oil is
added to petrol, shake container momentarily to
assure that the fuel is thoroughly mixed. Always
read and follow the safety rules relating to fuel
before fueling your unit.
