Basic safety rules
• No unauthorised persons or animals may be present
in the working area, which is 15 metres.
• The powerful currents of air can move objects at such
a speed that they can bounce back and cause serious
eye injuries.
• Do not direct the air jet towards people or animals.
• Stop the engine before assembling or dismantling
accessories or other parts.
• Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as
dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc.
Working in bad weather is tiring and can lead to
dangerous conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
• Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the
area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks,
branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move
suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping
ground.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times.
• Keep all parts of your body away from hot surfaces.
• Never put the machine down with the engine running
unless you have it in clear sight.
• Engine exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide,
which can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. For this
reason you should not start or run the machine
indoors, or anywhere that is poorly ventilated.
