Safety
Hazard control and accident prevention are dependent
upon the awareness, concern, and proper training
of the personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of the machine. Improper
use or maintenance of the machine can result in injury
or death. To reduce the potential for injury or death,
comply with the following safety instructions.
Safe Operating Practices
The following instructions are adapted from ANSI standard
B71.4-2012.
Training
•
Read the Operator's Manual and other training material.
If the operator(s) or mechanic(s) can not read English it is
the owner's responsibility to explain this material to them.
•
Become familiar with the safe operation of the equipment,
operator controls, and safety signs.
•
All operators and mechanics should be trained. The
owner is responsible for training the users.
•
Never let children or untrained people operate or service
the equipment. Local regulations may restrict the age of
the operator.
•
The owner/user can prevent and is responsible for
accidents or injuries occurring to himself or herself, other
people or property.
Preparation
•
Evaluate the terrain to determine what accessories and
attachments are needed to properly and safely perform
the job. Only use accessories and attachments approved
by the manufacturer.
•
Wear appropriate clothing including hard hat, safety
glasses and hearing protection. Long hair, loose clothing
or jewelry may get tangled in moving parts.
•
Inspect the area where the equipment is to be used and
remove all objects such as rocks, toys and wire which can
be thrown by the machine.
•
Keep all bystanders away from the operating area.
•
Keep all shields and safety devices in place. If a shield,
safety device, or decal is illegible or damaged, repair or
replace it before operation is commenced. Also tighten
any loose nuts, bolts, and screws to ensure that the
machine is in safe operating condition.
•
Check that safety switches and shields are attached and
functioning properly. Do not operate unless they are
functioning properly.
Safe handling of fuels
•
To avoid personal injury or property damage, use
extreme care in handling gasoline. Gasoline is extremely
flammable and the vapors are explosive.
•
Extinguish all cigarettes, cigars, pipes, and other sources
of ignition.
•
Use only an approved fuel container.
•
Never remove fuel cap or add fuel with the engine
running.
•
Allow engine to cool before refueling.
•
Never refuel the machine indoors.
•
Never store the machine or fuel container where there is
an open flame, spark, or pilot light such as on a water
heater or on other appliances.
•
Never fill containers inside a vehicle or on a truck or
trailer bed with a plastic liner. Always place containers on
the ground away from your vehicle before filling.
•
Remove equipment from the truck or trailer and refuel it
on the ground. If this is not possible, then refuel such
equipment with a portable container, rather than from a
fuel dispenser nozzle.
•
Keep the nozzle in contact with the rim of the fuel tank
or container opening at all times until fueling is complete.
Do not use a nozzle lock open device.
• If fuel is spilled on clothing, change clothing immediately.
•
Never overfill fuel tank. Replace fuel cap and tighten
securely.
Operation
•
Before every use:
– Inspect the coupler, ball and hitch.
– Always use safety chains.
– Verify all lights are functioning properly.
– Verify the tires are properly inflated as recommended
on tires.
– Verify lug nuts are tight and torqued properly.
– Machine is properly secured.
•
Never operate the debris blower when it is not connected
to a tow vehicle.
•
Be alert, slow down and use caution when making turns.
Look behind and to the side before changing directions.
•
Be aware of the blower nozzle direction and do not point
it at anyone.
•
Use care when approaching blind corners, shrubs, trees,
or other objects that may obscure vision.
•
Do not run the engine in or direct the blower nozzle into
a confined area without adequate ventilation. Exhaust
fumes are hazardous and could possibly be deadly.
•
This product may exceed noise levels of 85 dB(A) at the
operator position. Hearing protection is recommended
for prolonged exposure to reduce the potential of
permanent hearing damage.
