5 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
■ To maintain a firm grip and properly control your blower:
– Keep the handle clean and dry at all times. Keep it
free of moisture, pitch, oil, grease and resin.
■ To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries to the
operator or bystanders from loss of control:
– Always hold the blower firmly with one hand when
you are working.
– Wrap your fingers tightly around the handle, keeping
the handle cradled between your thumb and
forefinger (see illustration above).
■ To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injuries to the
operator or bystanders from loss of control, keep proper
footing and balance at all times:
– Never work on a ladder, roof, in a tree or while
standing on any other insecure support.
– Take special care in overgrown or wet terrain and
always watch for hidden obstacles such as tree
stumps, roots, rocks, holes and ditches to avoid
stumbling.
– Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or
uneven ground.
– Use extra care when cleaning on stairs.
– For better footing, always clear away fallen
branches, scrub, cuttings and other material, objects
or vegetation that can increase the danger of
slipping, tripping or falling.
– Never operate the blower above shoulder height.
– Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
5.6.3 Working Conditions
WARNING
■ Operate your blower only under good visibility during
favorable daylight conditions.
– Postpone the work if the weather is windy, foggy,
rainy or inclement.
■ Your blower is a one-person machine.
– Bystanders, especially children, and animals should
not be allowed in the area where it is in use.
– Switch off the blower immediately if you are
approached.
■ To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders and
unauthorized users:
– Never leave the blower unattended when the battery
is inserted.
– Switch off the blower and remove the battery during
work breaks and any other time the blower is not in
use.
■ Operating the blower in certain dry, dusty conditions may
cause static electricity to build up in the blower tube,
nozzle and housing. This static electricity may discharge
suddenly with a spark. To reduce the risk of personal
injury following static discharge:
– Wear heavy-duty work gloves made of leather or
another wear-resistant material.
– Never operate the blower in a location where
combustible gases, liquids, vapors, dusts or other
combustible materials and substances are present.
