SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete
service is carried out before long-term storage.
Adjusting the harness
A correctly adjusted harness and machine significantly
facilitates the work. Adjust the harness to give the best
working position.
Tighten the side straps so that the pressure is evenly
distributed across the shoulders.
Place the hip strap over the hip and not too far down on the
stomach. Tighten the hip strap so that you feel the weight of
the blower resting on your hip.
General working instructions
Show consideration to persons in your surroundings by
avoiding using the machine at unsuitable times, such as late
in the evening or early in the morning. Read through and
follow the simple directions so that you disturb your
surroundings as little as possible.
• Use the blower with the lowest possible throttle. It is
seldom necessary to use full throttle, and many work
procedures can be done at half throttle. A lower throttle
means less noise and less dust, and it is also easier to
keep control over the rubbish collected together/moved.
• Use a rake or a brush to release rubbish stuck to the
ground.
• Hold the opening of the blower as close to the ground as
possible.
• Observe your surroundings. Direct the blower away from
people, animals, play areas, and cars etc.
• Clean up afterwards. Make sure that you have not blown
rubbish into someone’s garden.
Basic safety rules
• No unauthorised persons or animals may be present in
the working area, which is 15 metres.
• The powerful currents of air can move objects at such a
speed that they can bounce back and cause serious eye
injuries.
• Do not direct the air jet towards people or animals.
• Stop the engine before assembling or dismantling
accessories or other parts.
• Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense
fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in
bad weather is tiring and can lead to dangerous
conditions, e.g. slippery surfaces.
!
WARNING! Take care when handling fuel.
Bear in mind the risk of fire, explosion and
inhaling fumes.
!
WARNING! The harness must always be
worn when working with the machine.
Failure to do so means you will be unable to
manoeuvre safely and this can result in
injury to yourself or others.
IMPORTANT! This section considers basic safety rules
when working with blowers. If you encounter a situation
where you are uncertain how to proceed you should ask an
expert. Contact your dealer or your service workshop. Avoid
all usage which you consider to be beyond your capability.
