■ Keep children, other people and animals at a distance before and
during the work.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
■ Before starting work, ensure that no people, animals or valuable
property are inside the danger zone.
■ If you are working in a combustible environment, such as dry grass etc.,
have a fire extinguisher on hand.
There is a risk of fire!
Adding fuel
■ Petrol is highly flammable. When filling the tank, keep at a distance
from open flames and do not smoke. There is a risk of fire!
■ Make sure that you do not spill any petrol. Do not allow petrol to get
into the soil.
Lay down suitable tarpaulins or similar.
■ Fill up the tank only in well-ventilated areas. Petrol vapours are highly
inflammable and can explode.
■ Switch off the engine before refuelling and allow the appliance to cool
down. If you spill any petrol, clean the affected area immediately.
Do not allow petrol to come into contact with your clothing. If this
happens, get changed immediately.
■ Avoid skin or eye contact with petrol or lubricants (oil).
■ Do not inhale any petrol/lubricating oil vapours.
■ Check for leaks. If petrol leaks out, do not start the engine.
There is a risk of burns.
■ Be careful when removing the petrol cap so that any pressure can
escape slowly and no petrol sprays out.
General working procedures
NOTE
► Be considerate of the people around you:
Avoid using the appliance at inappropriate times, such as late evening
or early morning. Reduce the noise level by limiting the number of
appliances used simultaneously. Read and follow the simple advice
below to minimise disruption to your surroundings.
► Use the appliance only during normal working hours to avoid
unnecessary noise nuisance. Avoid working in the early morning or
late evening.
■ Avoid gunning the engine during operation. Using less fuel not only
makes less noise, it also kicks up less dust. In addition, you also have
better control over the material you are blowing together or away.
■ Remove any debris stuck to the ground with the help of a rake or stiff
broom.
■ Keep the blower opening as close as possible to the floor. Use the entire
length of the blower pipe to keep the air jet close to the ground.
■ Leave your work area clean and tidy. Make sure that you have not
blown rubbish onto other people's property.
WARNING!
► Pay attention to your surroundings. If anyone approaches your working
area, reduce the throttle to a minimum until the person is again at a
sufficient distance.
Always direct the air jet away from people, animals, playgrounds,
open windows, cars, etc.
Basic safety instructions
■ No unauthorised persons or animals may be present in a work area of
15 m.
■ Allow the engine to cool down before topping up the fuel.
■ Keep all parts of your body away from hot surfaces.
■ If the appliance catches fire or there is any other emergency that
requires you to detach from the appliance, open the straps and let it fall
backwards.
■ Due to the strong air flow, foreign objects can be blown away at such
a speed that they can bounce back and cause serious eye injuries.
■ Never direct the air steam toward people or animals.
■ Always switch off the engine before installing or removing accessories
or the like.
■ Avoid using the appliance in bad weather, such as thick fog, heavy rain
or wind, very cold, etc. Working in bad weather is very tiring and can
cause dangerous conditions, e.g. a risk of slipping.
■ Reduce the blowing time by slightly moistening dusty areas or by using
spray devices.
■ Make sure that you can walk and stand safely. Watch out for possible
obstacles (roots, stones, branches, holes, ditches, etc.) if you suddenly
change your location. Be especially careful when working on sloping
ground.
■ Never set down the appliance unattended with the engine running.
■ The engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which can cause
carbon monoxide poisoning. Never start or run the appliance indoors
or in other places with poor air circulation.
■ The leaf blower may not be used on ladders, scaffolding or in a raised
position (e.g. on roofs). This work can lead to serious injuries.
■ ATTENTION! Never use the appliance in areas where it is not possible
to call for help in the event of an accident.
