WARNING
Engine exhaust IS HOT, and contains Carbon Monoxide (CO), a
poison gas. Breathing CO can cause unconsciousness, serious in-
jury, or death. Exhaust can cause serious burns. ALWAYS position
unit so that exhaust is directed away from your face and body.
WARNING
Always wear safety glasses, hearing protection, a face lter mask
and take all safety precautions or serious personal injury may result.
Do not point the blower pipe in the direction of people or pets.
IMPORTANT
Use reduced speed only when performing light-duty tasks or
to comply with local noise regulations. Continuous low speed
operation may allow fuel/oil residue to build-up on the piston
and cause rapid build-up of carbon on the spark arrestor screen,
resulting in overheating and engine damage. To reduce harmful
build-up, run engine at wide open throttle for at least 5 minutes
every hour, and inspect/clean the spark arrestor screen after ap-
proximately 40 hours of operation.
Read the Safety Section on pages 3 - 6 carefully.
IMPORTANT
To avoid engine damage due to over-revving, do not block
blower pipe opening.
1. Use only during appropriate hours.
2. Allow the engine to warm up at a fast idle for a few minutes.
3. PB-500H: Set engine speed with throttle lever (A).
PB-500T: Control engine speed with throttle trigger (B), or for
continuous use, set engine speed with Combination Throttle Posi-
tion / Stop Switch Button (A).
4. Use lower speed to blow dry leaves from walks, patios and drives.
5. Additional speed may be necessary to clean grass and leaves from
a lawn or ower bed.
6. Higher speed may be necessary to move gravel, dirt, snow, bottles
or cans from a driveway, street, parking lot or stadium.
7. Always stop unit using stop engine procedure.
NOTE
Never use a higher speed setting than necessary to perform a task.
Remember, the higher the engine speed, the louder the blower
noise. Minimize dust by using blower at lower speeds and by
dampening material with water/mist when necessary. Keep debris
on your property.
Be Smart - be a good neighbor.
