545133423 Rev. 4 9/6/07
Muffler
The muffler is designed to give the lowest possible noise level and to direct the engine’s exhaust fumes away from the operator. Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters are also designed to reduce harmful exhaust components.
WARNING: The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may
contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near flammable material!
WARNING: Mufflers fitted with catalytic converters become extremely hot during use and after stopping. This also applies at idling speeds. Contact can result in burns to the skin. Be aware of the risk of fire!
Safety equipment
WARNING: The blower must never be used if any of the safety
devices or guards are missing, damaged or not in working order.
The blower is equipped with a number of safety devices and guards for the preven-
tion of accidents. These are described in the general description of the blower.
The safety devices and guards also require regular inspection and maintenance. These measures and the interval at which they
should be carried out are specified in the Maintenance section.
Safety while operating the blower
SDo not allow bystanders or animals to be in the work area, i.e. 15 meters from the operator.
SThe blower may throw objects at high velocity that can ricochet and hit the opera-
tor. This may cause serious eye damage.
SNever point the blower nozzle toward people or animals.
SStop the engine before fitting or dismantling accessories or other components.
SNever operate the blower if any of the guards are missing.
S Never operate the blower in poorly venti-
lated spaces where exhaust fumes might otherwise be inhaled.
SStop the engine before refueling. Move the unit at least 3 meters from fueling site before attempting to start.
SThe catalytic muffler is extremely hot while the blower is running and after it has stopped. The same applies when the blower is running at idling speed. Be aware of the danger of fire, especially while operating the blower near flammable materials and/or where flammable fumes are present.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SBe careful, particularly if left hand operation is applied. Avoid any direct body con-
tact with inlet cover area. Keep jewelry, loose clothing, or clothing with loosely
hanging straps, ties, tassels, etc., away from inlet cover area.
SDo not operate the blower while standing on a ladder or a stand.
Other safety measures
SOperate the blower only at reasonable
hours, i.e. 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 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through Satur-
day.
S Operate the blower at the lowest possible throttle setting to do the job.
SCheck the condition of the blower before operation, especially the muffler, air intake
and air filter.
S Use a rake or a broom to loosen ground debris before blowing.
SUnder dusty conditions, slightly spray the work area with a hose.
SConserve water by using blowers instead of hoses for many lawn and garden
applications, including areas such as roof gutters, screens, patios and gardens etc.
S Watch out for children, pets, open windows or vehicles, and blow debris safely away.
SUse the full nozzle extension so the air stream can work close to the ground.
SAfter using the blower, clean up and dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
