OPERATION
Fig. 12
Fig. 11
�n Operate blower at the lowest possible throttle speed to
do the job.
��n Check your equipment before operation, especially the
muffler, air intakes, and air filters.
��n Use rakes and brooms to loosen debris before blowing.
��n In dusty conditions, slightly dampen surfaces when water
is available.
��n Conserve water by using power blowers instead of hoses
for many lawn and garden applications, including areas
such as gutters, screens, patios, grills, porches, and
gardens.
��n Watch out for children, pets, open windows or freshly
washed cars, and blow debris safely away.
��n Use the full blower nozzle extension so the air stream can
work close to the ground.
��n After using blowers or other equipment, CLEAN UP!
Dispose of debris in trash receptacles.
��n Use the wide sweeper nozzle for the everyday blowing
operation. This nozzle allows for more area to be covered
during the blowing operation.
��n The high velocity nozzle is great for wet sticky leaves. It
allows you to scrape wet leaves or debris while operating
the blower.
CRUISE CONTROL (THROTTLE LOCK)
See Figure 12
The Cruise Control (throttle lock) can be used to operate the
blower without continuously holding the throttle trigger.
TO ENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL:
�n For full throttle, depress the throttle trigger fully and slide
the cruise control
selector as far forward as possible.
n To reduce engine speed, slide the cruise control
selector
toward the back of the blower until the desired speed is
reached.
n To release cruise control, return the selector to the idle
position.
VACUUM OPERATION
See Figure 13.
n Install the vacuum tubes and bag. Refer to Installing the
Vacuum Bag and Installing the Vacuum Tubes earlier
in this manual.
n Start the blower. Refer to Starting and Stopping earlier
in this manual.
n� Place the leaf bag strap over your head and onto your
left shoulder. Hold the upper handle in your right hand
and the lower handle in your left hand.
�n Move the blower from side to side along outer edge of
the debris. To avoid clogging, do not place the vacuum
tube directly into the debris pile.
