STARTING/STOPPING THE BLOWER

• To start the blower, place the power switch in the ON
(I) position.
• To stop the blower, place the power switch in the OFF
(O) position.
OPERATING THE BLOWER
See Figure 5.
• To keep from scattering debris, blow around the outer
edges of a debris pile. Never blow directly into the
center of a pile.
• To reduce sound levels, limit the number of pieces of
equipment used at any one time.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when
water is available.
• Conserve water by using blowers instead of hoses for
many lawn and garden applications, including areas such
as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
• Watch out for children, pets, open windows, or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
• After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris properly.
