OPERATING TIPS
WARNING:
To avoid serious personal injury, wear eye and
hearing protection at all times when operating this unit. Wear a
dust mask in dusty locations.
• Never direct the unit at anyone while the unit is in operation.
• Always hold the unit securely when operating.
• To reduce the risk of hearing loss associated with sound level(s), hearing
protection is required.
• 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 recommendations are 9:00 am to
5:00 pm, Monday through Saturday.
• To reduce noise levels, operate power blowers at the lowest possible
speed to do the job and limit the total number of pieces of power
equipment used at any one time.
• Check your equipment before operation, especially the muffler, air intakes
and air filters.
• Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
• In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces.
• Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses for many lawn
and garden applications, including cleaning debri from areas such as
screens, patios, grills, porches, and gardens.
