• The blower is used for blowing away leaves and other debris on the ground. When operating the blower, the operater must stand with both feet firmly on the ground. Do not operate the blower while standing on a ladder or a stand.

• Under no circumstances may the design of the machine be modified without the permission of the manufacturer. Always use genuine accessories and parts. Non-authorized modifications and/or accessories or parts can result in serious personal injury or the death of the operator or others.

• When planning your work schedule, allow plenty of time to rest. Limit the amount of time over which the product is to be used continuously to somewhere around 30 ~ 40 minutes per session. Also try to keep the total amount of work performed in a single day under 2 hours or less.

■ Basic safety rules

1. Never operate a blower when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, or under the influence of madication that may make you drowsy, or if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

2. Wear the following protective equipments when operating the blower.

a: Approved ear protection to reduce the

risk of hearing loss.

b: Approved (ANSI Z87.1.) eye protection

and foot protection to reduce the risk of injury associated with thrown objects.

Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury.

WARNING

5. For safe operation

3. 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, persons with pacemaker should consult their physician and the pacemaker munufacturer before operating this tool.

4. Do not allow other persons to be near the blower when starting. Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area. Children, pets and bystanders should be a minimum of 50 feet (15 meters) away when you operate the blower.

5. Avoid using the blower where stable footing and balance are not assured.

6. All blower service, other than the items listed in the Owner's Manual, should be performed by competent service personnel. (E.g., if improper service to the blower fan and muffler could cause a hazardous failure.)

7. Always shut off the engine before setting it down.

8. Operate the blower only in well ventilated areas. Never start or run the engine inside a closed room or building and potentially explosive atmosphere. Exhaust fumes contain dangerous carbon monoxide.

10. Never to touch the muffler, spark plug,

other metallic parts of the engine or engine cover while the engine is in operation or immediately after shutting down the engine. These metallic parts and engine cover reach high temperatures during operation and doing so could result in serious burns.
