BLOWER OPERATION (cont.)
•
Do not start unit until you are ready to begin blowing, and promptly shut off unit as soon as operation is
complete.
•
Keep hands, feet and clothing away from rotating parts. Never place your feet or hands in path of
discharge.
•
Use proper discretion in selecting your debris removal pattern, especially on uneven terrain. Avoid steep
hills, especially if surface is wet. Do not travel straight down slopes exceeding 14 degrees. If tires begin to
slip when climbing a slope, the grade is too steep for safe operation. Angle the unit to a less steep slope
until tires stop slipping and traction is regained.
•
Be keenly aware of your surroundings while operating unit – children and pets can pop out of nowhere.
•
Learn to listen to your machine – being aware of what a well-running unit sounds like can alert you to a
potential problem. A straining engine or clanging impeller means that trouble is almost sure to follow.
TO CHANGE AIR DISCHARGE DIRECTION:
•
To direct air discharge out from the front of the
machine, open the forward air deflector door,
mounted on the front of the discharge end of
the blower, by pushing the control lever to the
front of the machine. This feature is ideal for
such things as blowing debris from a wall or
fence. Adjust engine speed to increase or
decrease air discharge rate.
•
To direct air discharge out from the side of the
machine, close the forward air deflector door by
pulling the control lever toward the back of the
machine. This feature is ideal for such things
as blowing debris into neat rows. Adjust engine
speed to increase or decrease air discharge
rate.
HINTS FOR EFFECTIVE OPERATION:
•
For operator ease and maneuverability, push down on the upper handle while walking so that the machine
balances on the rear wheels.
•
When blowing dry debris, set blower discharge to lower rate; when blowing wet or frozen debris, increase
discharge rate.
