Method of operation
• Use the blower only in good light and visibility. During cold seasons
beware of slippery or wet areas, ice and snow (risk of slipping).
Always ensure a safe footing.
• Never work on unstable surfaces or sleep terrain.
• To reduce the risk of personal injury, do not direct air blast towards
bystanders, since the high pressure of the air flow could injure
eyes and could blow small objects at great speed.
• Never insert any foreign object into the air intake of the machine or into
the nozzle of the blower. It will damage the fan wheel and may cause
serious injury to the operator or bystanders as a result of the object or
broken parts being thrown out at high speed.
• Pay attention to the direction of the wind, i.e., do not work against
the wind.
• To reduce the risk of stumbling and loss of control, do not walk
backward while operating the machine.
• Always shut off the engine before cleaning or servicing the unit or
replacing parts.
Maintenance instructions
• Be kind to the environment. Operate the blower with as little noise
and pollution as possible. In particular check the correct adjustment
of the carburetor.
• Clean the blower at regular intervals and check that all screws and
nuts are securely tightened.
• Never service or store the blower in the vicinity of open flames,
sparks, etc. (11).
• Always store the blower in a well-ventilated locked room and with
an emptied fuel tank.
Observe and follow all relevant accident prevention
instructions issued by the trade associations and by
insurance companies. Do not perform any modifications to
the blower as this will risk your safety.
