1.3.2 Working and danger area
The user is responsible for third parties in the working area.
•
Standing in the danger area around the machine is prohibited. Ensure that all persons have
•
left the danger area. Danger area: 25 m radius
While working, the operator must ensure that no people or animals come within 25 m of the
•
exhaust opening. The leaf blower must be switched off in a timely manner if people or animals
enter this danger zone.
Before turning on and starting the attachment, check the immediate vicinity. Pay particular
•
attention to children and animals. Ensure adequate visibility.
Before starting work, remove any foreign bodies from the area to be worked. During work, look
•
out for any further foreign bodies and remove them in good time.
•
When working in enclosed areas, the safety distance from the edge must be maintained to
avoid damage to the machine and tools.
When working in close proximity to public roads and paths, the airflow must be pointed in the
•
opposite direction to these areas to minimize the risk of other people being injured due to
objects in the airflow.
Never work with the leaf blower against the wind. Otherwise, objects may be hurled out in an
•
uncontrolled manner and could strike people, animals or the operator.
When working on or immediately adjacent to public roads and spaces, erect information and
•
warning signs to draw the attention of third parties to the work being carried out.
Due to the risk of injury from catapulted objects, protective goggles are mandatory. Approved
•
protective goggles in this case are those that comply with the ANSI Z87.1 standard for the
USA and/or EN 166 for EU countries.
Due to the increased noise level, ear protection must be worn during operation.
•
1.3.3 Before starting work
Before starting work, familiarize yourself with all equipment and operating controls and their
•
function, and make sure that all safety equipment is properly fitted and in the correct position.
Once work has started it is too late.
Before each use, check that the machine is safe to operate.
•
Before each use, check that the drive shaft is securely mounted on the drive drum on the
•
carrier vehicle and on the leaf blower.
Check the hydraulic connections and hoses for leaks and replace them if necessary.
•
Never operate the machine with defective or missing safety equipment.
