Safety Precautions
WORKING CONDITIONS
1. Refrain from operating the blower if you are tired, ill, or upset,
or if you are under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication
2. To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with sound
levels, hearing protection is required.
3. To reduce the risk of injury associated
with thrown objects, always wear eye protection and foot protection. Approved protective goggles must comply with standard ANSI Z87.1 in the USA or EN 166 in EU countries.
4. To reduce the risk of injury associated
with the inhalation of dust, use a face filter mask in dusty conditions.
5. Wear rubber-soled shoes or shoes with
some other form of anti-slip protection to help protect you against falling.
6. To reduce the risk of injury associated
with objects being drawn into rotating parts, do not wear loose clothing, scarves, neck chains, hair longer than shoulder length, or other loose material.
7. Prolonged use of a blower, exposing the operator to
vibrations and cold, may produce whitefinger disease (Raynaud’s phenomenon), the symptoms of which include tingling and burning sensations followed by loss of color and numbness in the fingers. All factors which contribute to whitefinger disease are not known, but cold weather, smoking diseases or physical conditions as well as long periods of exposure to vibration are mentioned as factors. In order to reduce the risk of whitefinger disease, the following precautions are strongly recommended
a) Keep your body warm. Never use the blower during rain. b) Wear thick anti-vibration gloves. c) Take more than 5 minutes of break
in a warm place frequently.
d) Maintain a firm grip at all times, but
do not squeeze the handles with constant, excessive pressure.
e) If you feel discomfort, redness and
swelling of your fingers or any other part of your body, see a doctor before it gets worse.
AVOID NOISE PROBLEM
NOTE
Check and follow the local regulations as to sound levels and hours of operations for blower.
1. 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.
2. To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of equipment used at any one time.
3. Operate power blowers at the lowest possible throttle speed to do the job.
4. Check your equipment before operation, especially the muffler, air intakes and air filters.
WORKING PLAN
• To reduce the risk of health damages, avoid excessive use
and take sufficient time to rest .
FUEL
W ARNING
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injury:
a) Handle fuel with care. It is highly
flammable.
b) Do not smoke while handing fuel. c) Do not refuel a hot engine. d) Do not refuel a running engine. e) Avoid spilling fuel or oil. Always wipe
unit dry before using.
f ) Move at least 10 ft. (3 meters) away
from the fueling point before starting the engine.
g) Always store gasoline in a container approved for flammable
liquids.
h) Make sure the unit is properly assembled and in good
operating condition.
i ) Do not use the blower near a fire, as
aiming the blower in the direction of a flame may cause flammable substances to ignite.
8. The ignition system of your unit produces an electromagnetic field of a very low intensity. This field may interfere with some pacemakers. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, people with pacemaker should consult their physician and the pacemaker manufacturer before operating this tool.
WORKING CIRCUMSTANCE
1. To reduce the risk of injury associated with exhaust fume inhalation, do not operate in unventilated area. The exhaust gases contain harmful carbon monoxide.
2. Avoid using the blower where stable footing and balance are not assured.
3. Never operate the machine in high wind, bad weather, when visibility is poor or in very high or low temperatures. (Our recommended use environment is below 40 degrees C (104 degrees F).)
