Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection and a face filter
mask or serious personal injury may result. Do not point the
blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.
Use reduced speed only when performing light-duty tasks or to
comply with local noise regulations. Continuous low speed operation
may allow fuel/oil residue to build-up on the piston and cause rapid
build-up of carbon on the spark arrestor screen, resulting in
overheating and engine damage. To reduce harmful build-up, run
engine at wide open throttle for at least 5 minutes every hour, and
inspect/clean the spark arrestor screen after approximately 40 hours
of operation.
Read the Safety Section carefully.
To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block blower
pipe.
1. Use only during appropriate hours. Contact your local government for
the ordinances affecting your area.
2. To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of equipment used at
any one time.
3. Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few minutes.
4. Control engine speed with
throttle trigger (B), or for
continuous use, set engine
speed with throttle position lever
(A).
5. Use lower speed to blow dry
leaves from walks, patios and
drives. Use rakes and brooms to
loosen debris before blowing.
6. Additional speed may be
necessary to clean grass and
leaves from a lawn or flower bed.
7. Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles or
cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.
8. Always stop unit using stop engine procedure.
