OPERATING TIPS
• While vacuuming or blowing debris, hold
the unit with the muffler side facing away
from your body and clothes (see OPERAT-
ING POSITION illustration above).
• To reduce the risk of hearing loss
associated with sound level(s), hearing
protection is required.
• To reduce the risk of injury associated with
contacting rotating parts, stop the engine be-
fore installing or removing attachments. Do
not operate without guard(s) in place.
• 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. Usual recom-
mendations are 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday though Saturday.
• To reduce noise levels, limit the number of
pieces of equipment used at any one time.
• To reduce noise levels, operate power
blowers at the lowest possible throttle
speed to do the job.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris be-
fore blowing.
