OPERATION
AIR VENTS
Never cover air vents. Keep them free of obstructions and debris. They must always remain clear
for proper motor cooling.
OPERATING THE BLOWER
Hold the blower rmly. Sweep from side to side with the nozzle several inches above the ground
or oor. Slowly advance the unit, keeping the accumulated pile of debris in front of you. Most dry
blowing operations are better suited to low speeds, rather than high speeds. High speed blowing is
a better way to move heavier items like large debris or gravel.
WARNING
• To avoid serious personal injury, do not wear loose-clothing or articles such as scarves,
strings, chains, ties, etc., that could be drawn into the air vents. Tie back long hair to make
sure it does not get drawn into the air vents.
• To avoid serious personal injury, ensure the unit is in OFF position and unplugged before
clearing the impeller.
• To avoid serious personal injury, always wear gloves to protect yourself from the impeller
blades or other sharp objects.
OPERATING TIPS
• Ensure that the unit is not directed at anybody or any loose debris before starting the unit.
• Verify that the unit is in good working condition. Make sure the tubes and guards are in place
and secure.
• To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with sound level(s), hearing protection is required.
• 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
recommendations are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, Monday through Saturday.
• To reduce noise levels, limit the number of pieces of equipment used at any one time.
• To reduce noise levels, operate power blowers at the lowest possible speed to do the job.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
• 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.
• Watch out for children, pets, open windows or freshly washed cars, and blow debris safely
away.
