SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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.

Safety equipment

The blower is equipped with a number of
safety devices and guards for the preven­tion 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.

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!

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Other safety measures

S Operate 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 Satur­day.

S Operate the blower at the lowest possible

throttle setting to do the job.

S Check 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.

S Under dusty conditions, slightly spray the

work area with a hose.

S Conserve 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.

S Use the full nozzle extension so the air

stream can work close to the ground.

S After using the blower, clean up and

dispose of debris in trash receptacles.

Safety while operating the
blower

S This garden blower/vacuum is only

designed for blowing away or removal of
leaves and other debris on the ground.

S Do not allow bystanders or animals to be

in the work area, i.e. 15 meters from the
