Specific Safety Rules - Craftsman 151.30381 Operator's Manual

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

■ Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. A wire gauge
size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended
for an extension cord 50 feet or less in length.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the
cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
■ Do not point the blower nozzle in the
direction of people or pets.
■ Never place blower on any surface, except
a hard, clean surface when motor is running.
Gravel, sand, and other debris can be picked
up by the air inlet and thrown at the operator
or bystanders, causing possible serious
injuries.
■ Never run the unit without the proper
equipment attached. Always ensure the
blower tubes are installed.
■ When not in use, blower should be stored
indoors in a dry, locked up place - out of the
reach of children.
