BLOWING OPERATION
Your Billy Goat QB blower is equipped with an exhaust director to allow the operator to direct the air stream up or
down as required to assist in moving debris. This feature is extremely useful when debris has piled up to the point
that it cannot be blown any farther. The air stream can be directed upward to blow the top of the debris pile over
and allow the operator to continue moving more debris farther.
